MDPC

pretpostavljam da vecina ovde zna za sajt i njegovu filozofiju

evo i MDPC #34

 

[Shiki]

#32 mi je za sada bez premca, a ovo je prvi da mi se bash neshto i ne svidja...

 

[c-p-r]

Ovaj konretno je malo promasaj po pitanju funkcionalnosti jer su svi ostali prednjacili uglavnom po tom pitanju a ovde je to zapostavljeno zbog tezeg hladjenja zasigurno. Mada mozda se i varam, ali grafika verujem dobija koji stepen zbog navlake.

Meni je #31 prvi po pitanju inovativnosti, mislim da ima dobru osnovu i da bi to moglo da se iskoristi, mislim na dizajn sa izuzetkom harda na otvorenom, zbog buke pre svega.

Ali 32, 29, 14 su mi pri vrhu na njihovoj listi.

 

[animaN]

Totalno se slazem za funkcionalnost! Ali ako to zanemarimo ovo je jednsotavno recheno lepo reshenje kada je dizajn u pitanju! Sama ideja je fenomenalna

Ne vidim šta je tu lepo što je kućište obučeno... Sa aspekta dizajna po mom mišljenju promašaj. Da je unikatno i zanimljivo kao ideja OK.

 

[animaN]

Pa shta ti ja mogu shto ti ne vidish

Lepo kaze Benny

BE INSPIRED! No matter if You hate it or love it!

evo vlasnik je objasnio

If a complete ("I am finished") system is "wow, that is the best I have seen for a long time" on first sight and no-compromise (no little "I don't care, it had to go quick" or "I know, but I would need to take the system apart again to make it perfect" details) is found on existing pictures, then the builder is approached. But some "good" photos make that happening more likely. The reports (links) that people send me are very very helpful, even that most of the chosen ones were already known before through build-logs in development. But I don't want to miss any, so reports are very appreciated.

At this "maybe-stage" it doesn't matter what quality of photos is delivered, because I need them to have a look into every corner before a group of people is discussing it. That is important to not get a system that has "some compromises are hidden somewhere". Yes - I know that systems of the past were not perfect. But that was the past and at that time the systems were very good and inspired others that came later ... today is today.

Especially if it just doesn't meet my personal taste, but execution is excellent, then I let the little group of individualists decide, because my personal taste should not prevent any system to get onto the site for the next 20 years, if it will be loved by so many others. If it would be a public voting system for everyone, the site would end up like so many others, with no limit to "who can be on it and who not". I am looking for "what can give inspiration to many out there and maybe move modding evolutionary into new perspectives". This is why so few are shown there.

The historical ones were great at their time and that's why they have a right to be there forever. For todays mods: All should just look at the latest 2-3 ones to see what the current "level" is, in order to exceed it or create a new variation OR just build something that is completely different.

The site appeals to so many who have nothing to do with modding and that is very nice, because they simply enjoy looking at the systems. It's like a gallery and in 20-30 years it will cover evolution of computers and hopefully make us all remember "oh yes, that was the system that brought this and that into the following systems of that time". Of course it doesn't meet everyones opinion, but many ones'.

Photography is easy if all the rest is "optimal". Lots of people will support the builder if necessary. The rule of thumb at the moment is like that: A "simple" system needs to be photographed very appealing. An uber-system where i. e. the case is fully constructed by the builder himself and this system has so much potential to change the looks of computers / computer-cases in the future, then I just want "as best as possible" photos by the builder. It doesn't need to be uber-perfect, but as good as for the builder is possible.

Photography is like modding: You build soooo long on a system, then you can spend a few hours with experimenting and trying to get the best out of the photo-shoot. I think this is additional motivation to break into new grounds that you thought couldn't be done by yourself.

And it's also a social thing: You ask friends to help you a little bit etc. The 030-photoshoot was something like that. We were standing there with 3 boys and one girl. They were holding blankets so that there are no furniture-reflections in the side-panel-window. They had pain, I was shooting It was in an apartment with almost no light. It's all improvisation and just a few had access to professional studios (you know them). It's worth to do your best with photography: Months of building and the system just deserves to be pictured well - do it for yourself and your system - not for a website, competition or MDPC.

I always say when people ask me about "can my future system be on MDPC?":
"Build it for yourself (and the community if you like) and forget that I am responsible for this project, because I don't want to be your enemy later on because I didn't take the system. Even if you don't get on it, you enjoyed the time and did your best - and most propably exceeded what you thought you can do."

And it's not so easy to be "the guy with the site", because I (rarely) hear frustrations because of expectations. If I know somebody personally or via forums and I have little doubts about "readiness", then I never decide myself and pass it on to my little group of adults spread around the world. Also my girlfriend and people that don't have anything to do with modding are included and their opinion is heard
Btw.: Lumina is what the "old people who don't build computers" love most of the time I know that some people think, that I just let my personal taste decide. It's simply not true, because I do this project for you and not myself.

About final shots that are shown on the site:
Photography needs to cover "full-case-view" from front, side, backside to see that there is no compromise all around. Then a full shot that shows the complete interior setup in one picture is required. Then "closeups" of the neat little solutions and specialities. And then the so called "style shots" just for the pleasure of the viewer who is not interested in "how did he attach the thing ... how did he set up the loop ...".

About "what makes an MDPC":
Ashraf's quote of an email I sent when he asked how to get on MDPC is very good and sums it up.

Is it something to criticize?
It's just a little website in the end - nothing special, nothing important.
I am not a special modder either, no technical person - I just like to see new ideas and beautiful systems. Whenever I can inspire someone else, that's more than I can dream of. I love to see everyone expressing his fun and showing what he / she does. It should all be fun for yourself and then all others enjoy it who are watching you. It's not about competitive thinking - even that I had to learn it too in my past (not with modding) to just appreciate what others do - especially if they do it good or "better"

I just learned one thing about modding:
When you think you are done, it just begins.
And when you honestly can't think about anything else that you can do to make your work better, then it's potentially an MDPC - but who cares then, because you did your best and there is nothing better

What makes a computer a MDPC?

Jedino shto mi se svidja na modu je memorija CELL SHOCK FTW!

 

[illidan]

ja to stavio samo kao info da je stavljen novi mod
originalno i unikatno, ali ja ne bih drzao na mom stolu. ali kada sam video da veze ati logo

 

[BEGINER]

Za ovaj mod se uopste ne bih bunio da mi pokloni(sve mi se svidja,od moda do komponenti )

I meni se definitvno taj mod najvise svidja 32# bukvalno savrsheno odradjeno

jedan je Charles a i ceo worklog je savrsenstvo

 

[dadoo]

jedan je Charles a i ceo worklog je savrsenstvo

Upravo sam odgledao ceo worklog..

I opet se ponavlja da cime god pocnes da se bavis nadje se neko ko te ovako iscima i zbog kog pozelis sve da batalis

A za worklog - nemam reci...

Ma, jesu ti modovi zaista posebni u svakom slucaju ali moramo biti realni jer oni pre svega poseduju znanje i iskustvo vezano za obradu materijala odnosno u vecini slucajeva, tj rekao bih ovde i recimo u "murder modu 009" [mislim da je covek prevazisao vecinu] a to je kljucno da bi se ideja sprovela u delo jer je mislim to i najtezi deo.
