i'm sure it's fine and i'm sure people have done it.....but i have bets that the psu isn't gonna last as long....i would get a hole cut out above the psu. at least get some air in there! you just never know when it comes to electronics and heat

at least it will cool the rest of the components if you do

@ Lazy - How do you find the performance of the Heatpipes when they are upside down, the mobo being BTX style mounted. I have the same case (a few pages back in this thread) and am a little concerned about heat pipe cooled mobos being mounted like this. Thoughts anyone?

I've never heard of them until now but I did some digging and you are indeed correct. Thanks for the info :up:

great work - could you elaborate on how you mounted the blocks to your shuttle sockets?
08-31-2007, 08:28 AM
johnnyli

The problem with the shuttle is it does not use a standard 775 bolt pattern for the cpu cooler hold down so you have to modify your cpu cooling block hold down to match the shuttles hold down holes by adding adjustable slides of some kind

Here she is..... after months of searching this thread i finally decided to take the plunge. THis is my first attempt at WC'ing. I may try again and use an EK Res. instead of the Micro-Res. My temps look fairly good, but i think the water in the resv. is being heated by the 8800 GTX.

Loop: Resv. - Pump - CPU - Rad - Resv.

Things I need to work on:
1. Cable managment (cut holes in back of MB tray)
2. New resv. and shorten the loop

My new setup:

I'm very happy with the dead silence of this setup, it consists of:

- Hydor Seltz L30 II A/C pump
- MCR320 radiator
- 3x Yate Loon fans
- 1/2" ID Tygon tubing (R-3603)
- D-Tek yellow dye
- Swiftech Apogee GT
- Random dollar store container

This slick setup cost me $180.00 CAD, and it gives me the ability to run my E2140 @ 3.2ghz, 1.43V with a load temperature of 34ºC.

Yes, I picked yellow because everyone has blue/red/green.

I still have to put something where the Acrylic is missing. I had to leave that bit, since my Case would not close with Acrylic at the end, cut the Side Panel, a bit too much :(.

Specs in Sig...

Ad1tya, I had the exact same problem on my p5b deluxe with that memory cooler and my 8800gtx. Took the fans out of the cooler and mounted them on a flat strip between two posts screwed into the motherboard mounts.. nice work btw..

if u turn ur rad downwards, u can place the pump under it directly and get much shorter tubing
