This is a small repost of my previous log. I will clean up all the waiting for hardware and unnecessary post this time as the build is obviously done for the most part. The original log can be found in my sig.


Now lets get started with some of the components used.


Basics:
Intel QX9650
DFI LanParty LTX38
8GB G.skill DDR2 1000Mhz
Two 3870X2's
150GB Raptor
500GB WD
Samsung DVD-RW
750Watt PCP&C Crossfire Ed.
Silverstone TJ07 Case with Modified window

Water:

Loop 1 (CPU): EK Supreme CPU Block, Swifttek MCP665 Pump, Swiftek MCR120.3 Radiator, Blue UV FluidXP EXP, Swiftek Reservoir

Loop 2(Northbridge): Danger Den MPC Chipset Block, MCP665 Pump, BlackIce 120GTX, Green UV Primochill, Swiftek Reservoir

Loop 3(GPU): Two Nickel Plated EK 3870X2 Blocks, Swiftek MCP665 Pump, Two MCR120.2 Radaitors. Red (turned out pink :( ) UV FluidXP EXP, Swiftek Reservoir

27 foot of tubing, 82oz liquid, over 60 clamps used.


Heres some pictures of some of the componets. I bought all the watercooling stuff before the 3870X2 cards were out so I was kinda hoping the MCW60s would fit. But they didnt..

Yea I seen and tried it. They fit on the card but not as intended and it looks like crap. And you need to fill the cards with ramsinks.

[Pedalmonkey]

you can dremel the stock HS and just use that. if your really wanted to use those MCW-60's of yours, but looks like u got it all coverd :p

[Kunaak]

you system seems weird.
why put a tripple on a single CPU.
and a double on 2 videocards cooling 4 cores?

shouldnt it be the other way around.
surely a double can handle just about any CPU fine, assuming its running fine.

hows the final results with the cards?

If you read it right I have two 120.2 rads on the video cards. total of 4 radiators.


CPU 21*C Idle (4.2Ghz) GPU 27*C Idle (Stock ATM) and NorthBrige 31*C Idle (1.6V)

I love EK nickel plated blocks... the look so nice. :up:

[The[R]eaper]

soooo shiny!!! :D looks great cant wait to see more

[diezel]

nice Pictures

[\/\/ater (ooler]

it looks like a great build

are you sure the 750watt can handle two 3870x2 and a quad?

[diezel]

it is a great build

[junkun13]

compression fittings would be nice :)

[Nelson92]

where did you get that 5" LCD?

[kasu code]

When I first put this system togeather I ended up redoing it all. So some pictures might be from the first time I was putting it togeather.

Yea the PCP&C Silincer CF ED is made for two 2900XT. the 3870x2s take less power.

simply awesome, love the nickel ek blocks :clap:

are those ac ryan blackfire fans u got there? I've been really interested in getting some of those dual colour ones, is the uv better than led lighting? mind posting a couple of pics of them in action latter on? :D

cool lcd screen too, whats it gonna display?

Some of the tubbing
http://img442.imageshack.us/img442/9351/pict0286ng3.jpg

Top Notch!

Yea they are the Blackfire Fans. They are the LED ones. Heres a pic I missed of them installed. Later Ill show you them in action.

I used TT Thunderblades for the rads.

holly :banana::banana::banana::banana:! that res array looks amazing.:shocked: I like how you out them together instead of separating them, as well as the pumps, makes it look really intimidating :eek2: instasubscribed!

[kasu code]

Thanks, Ill upload some more pictures in a few hours.

[DavidNJ]

Danger Den FatBoys on the northbridge and no where else?

Yep, might change it to an EK later along with adding some more stuff after I recover from how much this cost me already.

[G80]

Does the sidepanels fit anymore?. Overall it looks like a maintenance nightmare, but it sure looks very good ;)

[AndyM]

Wow, that takes a 'filled up' TJ07 to new levels :up: . What sort of mounting do you have for the D5's and Raptor? Any shots of the rad array?

damn damn damn why does that fabric have to be in the way?

besides that, THIS IS ONE HELL OF A RIG!!! man you just inspired me to go crazy!!! that lcd screen behind the two way mirror is absolutely sick!:eek:

edit: after reviewing this, I think you're gonna have to eat gruel for a while, but I think its totally worth it!

[MMhardKy]

Its beyond awesome, the only thing that could make is better is some aluminium plate for the optical drive.

[kasu code]

D5 bolted to drive enclosure as you can see in some of the pics. Raptor is mounted using the mount holes under the drive. Later I can try and take some pics of the rads. Its a huge pain to take any of it apart. I can at least make a diagram showing you the array.

[afX]

very nice, thanks for the vid, but I was wondering if you could take a dark photo where everything is uv reactive, and hopefully show off some of those blackfire fans, I'm really curious to what they look like in real life. Also, if you have a spare drive cover you can do this with your cd drive http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mVGBSkPQueA
its really easy all you need is a push to make switch, open up the bottom case of the drive and solder a connection to the two protruding onboard switch prongs to activate eject. but thats a minor thing, you rig is still very nice.

[brianm602]

Holy smokes batman! That thing is freaking amazing, awesome job man! :yepp:

Dam I don't think I have ever seen some one give their NB it's own loop and with a D5 for that matter.

[dude_500]

Just wondering why you put NB on it's own loop and crossfired on another loop... Wouldn't it make more sense to put each GPU on a loop and throw the NB into one of those loops? If you're going to have 3 loops anyways this makes more sense to me anyways.

Anyways, AWESOME build... makes me wish I could afford more parts :clap:

[lior307]

Now That's what i call Water Cooling ART .
Great hob man ,
I'm also planing to build my new WC when my parts will arrive (every day) .

Is A Thermochill PA120.3 (triple) can fit in the Silverston case ???

[kasu code]

Thanks everyone :)

It was about looks as much as performance. and the bottom part of the case is already packed. the NB loop will get memory and maybe harddrives later aswell.

These were previous pictures I had. I need a tripod. Ill take some better pictures.

[Borgod]

Early pics made it look like it was going to be a messy disaster of a build. Ends up looking very neat! Nice work!

The front panel needs to be addressed but, the edges look butchered.

[Eddie3dfx]

I love the decals.
I must say when I first saw this I thought it was an arcade machine, which I think is awesome.
I really think the decals were very worth the price.
Two thumbs up!

[Maxx103]

Good lord man, that is impressive. Can I ask where you went to get those awesome decals?

Its still not 100% done. Im touching up on all the quality bits right now I ordered about $100 worth of small stuff. Getting it ready for real pictures.

I edited the artwork to get it to fit how I wanted.
