[pcaddict]

Nice parts! where you guys get the money for these crazy systems?

[trfnj74]

Thanks I should have a little update later , but progress is slow....

[crazy1323]

I see you have the PA120.3's in push/pull. I have a similar case Ascension Horizon. Did you put shrouds on the ThermoChills? What there enough room for it?

[trfnj74]

crazy
Yes I do have shrouds on all the thermochill rads...The one that is push/pull is for the CPU and it has enough room with out hitting the MB tray.

[trfnj74]

[Borys]

OMG Amazing stuff i can't wait for another update :D

[BlueAqua]

One word to describe this... Redonkulous. :rofl:

:up:

[Zw_Roodbaard]

That's sick man :O Crap, there are no words te describe this :P

[CptDreadFlint]

I've discovered why all sites have, "This Item is Out Of Stock" under all their Fans, Rads and Fittings section. :rofl:



...and with that amount of fans and rads in your collection, you might end global warming. :up:

[andrzr]

oh sh*****t! :O

[NaMcO]

No words. Subscribed, WTF!

[Eddie3dfx]

Mother of God that is a beast.

[BDW88]

love how you did the Ped, was thinking of doing the same but running 2 pumps in series with the rads.

[PsYcHoNo0b727]

Where do u live... I wanna rob you :wasntme:

Lol awesome looking stuff you got there, ill be following for sure!

[exe163]

:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

[shazza]

Oh My !!!!!

Good of you to build a new room to house the Mountain Mods ... looking forward to seeing this one come together.

[Metasheep]

Can't wait to see the setup, and not just the computer. That whole space is probably going to be pretty sweet when you're done. :up:

[konexion]

Insane project! :eek:

[Oli4v]

water cooling insanity on his best ! , I like :P:

[trfnj74]

BDW88

I was going to do the same but I asked around, but was told that the TC 120.3 are not very restrictive so the extra pump isnt needed.

[trfnj74]

Shazza
I just hope I can live up to your standard you do some very nice builds :up:.
The room is almost finished I have a couple little things to complete but Ive been without my computer for some time now so they cant wait...

[trfnj74]

Thanks for everyones comments and I should have some more updates next weekend.....

[trfnj74]

1.---Installed the water blocks.....

2.---Installed some fans in Ped for some added air as andyc suggested....

http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h201/tffz74/100_1147.jpg

Man these blocks were a pain in the arse...

[defect9]

I think I just wee'd my pants

[trfnj74]

Im going to have some Custom decal's made up for the backside of the San Ace's in the front of the case. If I knew I was going to use dual rads on the CPU I would had ordered the side with rad mounts.

[trfnj74]

Bitspowers fitting is like crack thier very addicting esp that Vincent comes out with new one all the time.....

[trfnj74]

Thanks, I just wish I had more time to work on it. My kids take most of my time so it leaves my the late hours of the night.



Wow. It's really coming together nicely.

[Borys]

Wow 4 Termochill's on one WC set :eek: But some much fans will be a bit noisy i think??

[trfnj74]

The fan controllers help with the noise but its not that bad but its definately not for some one looking to be silent. I game with a headset so its not an issue for me....


Wow 4 Termochill's on one WC set :eek: But some much fans will be a bit noisy i think??

[Rise]

howcome no x2 x2?

[evoted]

wow what a project you got going on.

amazin!! :up:

[trfnj74]

I dont see the need becuase Im only using an 24in monitor. I will do dual or tri cards on my I7 build in which I am currently buying parts for....


howcome no x2 x2?

[Ronnie Coleman]

When you get sick of that s**t you can always destroy everything and you'll get nice swimming pool. :D

Congrats. I always liked ultimate setups. (:

But I bow to a lot of others members here because of their modding ability, I have just the tip of the Iceberg. It’s because of them and their builds and expertise that myself and IMO most of us for that matter complete our builds. :clap:

[alpha1ma]

man...this is seriously one hell of an insane build..

its realli awsome..:D:D:D

just a question, wondering wats the max amp per channel for ur fan controller..?

[trfnj74]

alpha1ma
Thanks.......
The Sunbeam controllers are 25 watt max each channel, and the Akasa is 17 watts per channel but Im not sure that accurate. I can run two San Aces per chnannel on the Asaka but after within an hour it starts to shut down. The controller gets really hot.

[Sadasius]

A very XS worthy build! :up: Looking forward to the finished rig.

[Tom128]

I had enough of a hassle getting a single black sunbeam controller let alone 3.

[ILikeCosmosS]

i got question for your is that murder mod sleeving or techflex?

[jimmyxxx]

Holy Sh1t!

[trfnj74]

The sleeving on PSU is from Murder Mod and the rest Clean Cut PET which I think techflex or something like it. Its from FRy's and I like it a lot....

hardly to give critiques good or bad about it...

all i can is :slobber::slobber::slobber:

[shazza]

Whoa ... looking good so far. For some reason, it reminds me of the inside of a submarine (that's not a bad thing) ... all the nice fittings and components.

Looking forward to seeing the motherboard and other goodies installed.

[trfnj74]

Me too...there a light at the end of the tunnel. This has been my slowest build ever. I know Ive said this before but a lot of members take awsome pics and I need to invest in a D-SLR because I dont make the grade...

Thats insane, only thing i can say is are you going to be able to route the power switch cables along the side instead of across the middle? Great build!

[trfnj74]

Thanks
The main 24pin cable will go up in between the top two rads then across to the MB, the 8 pin and PCI will be routed under the MB tray. So far thats the plan. Cable managemant really sucks...

Holy Moley.. how did I miss this grill.
Yeah, I picked up 100ft of the cleancut.. awesome sleeving. excellent job sleeving the entire psu :shocked:

4 radiators.. this thing is a beast! clean tube routing.. one of my favorite builds so far :up:

[trfnj74]

Thanks
Yes the CleanCut from Fry's is really good stuff...The one thing I like about MurderMod is small sleeving. Its just a little smaller that anything I can find. It makes a difference...

I just picked up some of that CleanCut from frys the other day to try it out.. It's alot better than the old suff that they were carrying before which I bought a couple of years back.

Also just order some MM sleeving also to give that a try... build is looking good and cant wait to set how it handles fired up.
