The color white and the color black. two colors that always oppose each other but always go together, like yin and yang. This build resembles a white super car with an exotic look and elegance working hand in hand. MGCustom’s MK.1 is a silverstone raven 01 custom repainted into white, custom sleeves for the psu and a modded AIO cooler from corsair. this is a simple build to that would leave a great impression!
this is the MK.1.

Tell us a brief description of your pc build.
- The MK.1 is just a simple pc mod/build that caters both basic air cooling and an all in one liquid cooler in it. The basic objective of this build is to show simplicity and elegance through a clean build with no signs no logos! i gave this build the name MK.1 which means it’s the first of its series and I am really hoping that I would continue to make another build like this in the near future to continue the “MK.” series.
