Great cases Defyant! :up:
Although i like to see my hw... :p:
Those are some great looking cases. :clap:
How are the temps of the ones with the montherboards covered?

Thanx very much guys :)
TY mate appreciate that :)Quote:

All the mods incorp passive or active flow under the covers! i recently did an aircooled server with cover as well.. this PC with 6 x 250+gig hdds would die without smart cooling.
thanx again guys :) aprreciate the comments.
holy crap dude, are you adopting :D
Defyant. your work makes me cry tears of joy.
now for a little of my "work" :)

ghetto but i like it.
defyant, love seeing your work, i could never be patient enough to do all the stuff you do to make such great cases, good to see some great quality cases coming from australia:toast:
Defyant,
Complete class mate. RESPECT!!!! :toast:
Defyant, amazing works
i really like the idea of covered motherboards it almost takes the computer away from the windowed look, makes it look so clean
But not like a computer... ;)

Defyant,
You are the "Wizard of Wonder"! :toast: :toast: :clap: :clap:
Heh, I was going to sell it. The big problem I found with the DD NV-68 block was weight - it twisted the card so it's really difficult to set it up so GPU / block contact is always good, even with the thumbscrews tight. I stuck a "prop" between block and case floor which helped, but it wasn't great.Quote:

Well I use a Maze 4 GPU and it cools my card fine. I've found that removing the heat from the core cools down the memory anyway, so I doubt a full cover card would do a lot.
Infact my GPU core didn't gain anything from watercooling, but changing the RAM cooler from stock to Swifty RAM sinks and removing the core's heat got me an extra 50-100Mhz on the memory.
I never thought about the weight with them full cover blocks, it's a good point though.
here´s mine
NB and CPU cooler selfmade
case selfmade, too

i don't like the montir being placed like this
why r u using it in this way? a special reson or only u like it
you dont have to scroll that much....
makes reading forums much easier and it automaticly switches back to normal viewing when i turn the monitorQuote:

now that si Xtreme :)
I just redid my wc because i recently killed my opty 148 with no warranty by taking the ihs off and knocking off an ic, so i have some free time. anyway, i made the tubes alot shorter and the wc box under the case, which i just rushed together, so its notjhing special, anyway, i dont have any ram cpu or video card in it, but its ready for them ;) -dont think ive seen you on eocf in awhile SaFrOuT

sorry, forgot to give specs. its a mag3 pump, dual heatercore with 2 120x38 panaflo medium speed fans which are mounted to the other side of the small case on the bottum, a dd rbx, maze 4 acetal and mix of tygon tubing and harder home depot stuff, with a 1:1 mix of dex-cool and water. anyone ever use dex-cool?
Is that a T-Line just in front of the CPU block? :nono:
yeah:( does it hurt the flow or something? i was going to change it but i didnt for some reasonQuote:

In other words. Change loop order RIGHT NOW. :)
well my pump is already a little too powerful for my taste. it tends to squeeze my tubes. and what do you mean by a surplus. if i cap the tline and its a closed circuit, everything will be getting the same air, and if i made my tline at the pump, do you see where it is? i could never get the air out of the line that wayQuote:
Originally Posted by jrw
well it wont be much difference when the loop is full. its only when filling, that the line its better to have in front of the pump. the t-line restriction doesnt change from one position in a setup to another. so just leave it where it is!Quote:

The vga block.

Later, Im showing the cpu one and nb one.
Saludos.
postman, es aluminio anodizado ó Delrin?
Se vé muy bien tu bloque, tiene cierto parecido al Maze4 y la base del espesor del MCW60, muestra imagenes del interior del bloque.
Saludos.

Well, it seems to be a little bit similar to the Maze 4 I own.
If he could dissamble it to get some images it could be great.
Postman... just remember to be carefull in that way and check the seals before installing it again (for leaks).
really sweet setup D,
the water is so watery :D u used zerex only right?
yeap I only used zerex racing super coolant and distilled water:cool:

Es Delrin, a ver si le hago fotos al interior a alguno de los bloques que tengo sin ensamblar, y las pongo.
Ok, i will show the internal when i arrive to my house.Quote:

No problem with leaks, the top and base plate are sealed with a piece of rubber sheet, you will see it when i show pics of the internals.
In addition, i have done hundreds of blocks for the people, and no problem with leaks.

Here's my pocket Dual Opteron SLI powerhouse :)

All clean and interior watercooling (CPU's that is, the SLI cards are cooled with air)

The internal design may seems very simple, but the performance is very good (I have compared directly PostmanVGA and Maze4, and get the same performance), and the restriction is very low.

curios..how many radiator u have there??Quote:

How many pumps, waterblock?
Cause i'm curious whether a G5 pump is sufficient enough to power
An Apogee, MCW60, MCW30, BI GT240 + BI Gt120...
Need advice and comment from pro here...
still in process building my own set...
reason i get a GT240 & Gt120 to able squeeze all in a midle tower case.wit mod of course.
Nice... and i spotted a Hidden Mickey..Quote:

Some very nice work on here. I just realized there was a thread just for WC'd cases... This was posted earlier in the Computer Cases gallery... It's probably just as fitting here.
Voodoo PC MESA case, drilled for blowholes up top, everything inside has been upgraded from what Voodoo originally put in it. Not quite as creative and not as much effort as some of the cases on here though!

I do not like the tubes but the rest is fantastic !
There are 2 radiators, 1 3x120 and 1 2x80, The cpu is on the 3x120, the NB and VGA are on the 2x80, 2 loops drawing from the same resivor.Quote:

As far as the pump, I have no experience with the g5. hopefully someone else can answer that one.
:toast:
Hee hee, my foggy tubes in Coolsleeves... Had to use them on 1 tube, so I had to put them on all of them for consistency. Foggy tubes is well... simply not cleaning it out correctly. I'm flushing the system and redoing it when my new block arrives.
Cleaned it up a bit and did some wiremanagment. :)

I <3 Voodoo cases. I know they are based on Lian-Li's...but they are still the sex.
I also like the meshing at the top of your case Staucher, that is quite cool. What did you use for it?
-Ghent
Perforated plate
for example
hmmmm... didn't heard, but beauty. the most of that blocks that i've seen (i mean the heads of wbs) were made from plexiglas (and i did the same :)).Quote:
