This computer composition is dedicated to Nils – I had an issue with this build regarding the lack of black in the so called “black” coolant. The only solution I could think of to achieve the look I was going for was to braid the hoses in black sleeving. Nils had planned to create a machine with braided hoses but graciously suggested I go ahead and use the idea. This meant that his plans were now shelved since the idea would have already been done. Cheers Nils, and thank you for motivating me to do my best.

Ok, this is probably going to be a letdown but the red glow is in fact what is commonly referred to by many, as simply the sun.

It's the sun you see through the res. I actually thought about putting LED lights in there but nothing ever came of it.

This is a good point and one I'm planning to address when they go to production. The murderbox ones will indeed have murderbox up there. :)

I've actually started using the 1/8" more lately. I sleeved most of the cables before I got a roll of 1/8". Truth be told, I didn't even know it existed until a few weeks ago.The supplier I used to deal with never had any. My new supplier does and I'm digging the stuff big time.

If you're referring to the fact that you can't see most of the cutout shape its because its been blown out by the lighting (sun).

This is exactly what Ill be testing this week before they go into production. I'll do extensive tests to ensure there is adequate airflow before offering these for sale. The absolute LAST thing I want is to put a part on the market and have it fail or be deficient in any way.

Charles: I'm also interested in the airflow testing, but there's one hitch; I haven't seen a single fan in the upper compartment during this whole build. The mid-plate is now sealed, so no air from the rads. The two 92mm fans are also gone with the new backplate. So where will the airflow come from?

Hey Charles, show them the pics of what you did with the fan in mine ;) That is, if you're ready to reveal that.

i want an air cooled murderbox. :lol:

Ooh, ooh! Another murderBox/murderMod. I can't get enought of charles' work :p:. I think i'll have to get one for myself ;)

amazing charles, love the orange sleeving and great pics :slobber: :up: :toast:

Charles, love the way those top grills show off the GPU block! :up:

Very nice project, i have been watching for a lot of time.

So i give you

10 for powercoat-very neat

10 for watercooling mounts etc

10 for harddisk mounts

10 for sleeving the w/c tubes

5 for cable sleeving-i just think it'd be better ir ll cables were together in one sleeve is all

3 for cable mangement-You still have a lot of cables showed out which doesnt help airflow ad i think it'd look nicer with n cables out

All of the murdermod projects have individually sleeved 24 ATX power cables and since it's all under water airflow isn't as important. The various wires and cables are nicely ordered too which I find pretty neat.

What appeals to me is the "organized chaos" that is part of the wire management. It's provides texture to the inside.

And as mentioned, air flow is not necessary with the water cooling.

To each his/her own. Everyone has different tastes. :up:

I agree. I quite like being able to see the sleeved cables. Normally you would try to hide the cables, cos they're unsightly. But these ones are just beautiful, and deserve to be shown off:D
