    Finally got my m17x r2 put back together with some pics taken. Not perfect by no means but I did learn a few things that I can use to do better in the future. This is my first project quite like this one.

    i would have liked to seen a bit more of a purple tint but this will do. My redo it sometime when i can find the perfect paint to give it more of a "cosmic" feel.

    That looks great. I wish I was around when they had the M17x with SLI. I would have bought one for sure.

    Here's me hoping they bring back SLI with the AW 17. :rolleyes: The 120Hz bundle would be amazing.

    Great job and awesome color! When I think about M17x-R2, I think why not blue? It seems I'm not the only one :D
