What have you done?
Any fault in the wiring or what?
Leakage of your experience is probably not an option.

I wonder what could've happened with the cpu :shrug:

But if I'm not wrong Malik used the Bitfenix cable extenders and did not sleeve the PSU so if nearly impossible that something was caused from the cables mmm :shrug:

I'm sorry to read those bad news Malik. Hope the GPU and the mobo are OK :up:

Did you have some tension failure at home or outages from the electricity source?

I think that was a reason of this crash. I was back from clinic to home, push power and ... PUFF PUFF from secure bar where was PC connected. BS, no post, so i decide to check all. First was corsairs: 2 dead, 4 was ok. Now im waiting for new cpu ( intel i7 960 ) and i will check mobo, today i will check gpu ... ehhh truth live

Hey malik, could you tell me how hard it was to get the top panel off for cutting the radiator hole? were there many pop rivets to take out and were they hard to put back in?, you've inspired me to get this case and put a 420mm radiator up the top aswell :D
04-13-2011, 09:04 PM

I'm guessing that this is gonna be some new Sandy Bridge platform. Most probably from Asus cuz it makes the most good looking motherboards in meaning of quality and it fits the color theme ;-)

Are u gonna change the psu to the one i suggested or the antec one remains?

That is very simple. you have two rivets on front, two on back, three on right side. About 10 min work :)

The SLI bridge is a different color (in my opinion) to give a break in the uniform color scheme of the whole project. You may not realize it now, but if he had made his sli bridge black you would have looked right over it and nothing(other than the awesome craftsmanship and equipment) would have caught your eye. I think he meant to do it that way. I may be wrong tho.

it's probably more the camera than software.

if you want a software that will do it though, http://www.getpaint.net is an awesome photoshop clone, and it's free.

1. This SLI bridge is better. 5-6 l/h more in flow and 3 degrees less in stress temps.
2. AX850 is not so good psu. It's noisy for me. So thats why i will changed it.

AX850 noisy?
Fan, coil? ... What noise?
Changing the fan in my AX1200 solved the problem.
It is now quiet.
Factory-installed Yate Loon fan was hopeless.

Bitfenix make really nice cable extension. I think that if you don't want to spend time sleeving your cables they're the best option.

Where are you going to put the lights?

MalikI guess there is Carbon Fiber vinil on the PSU.

First i wanted to mount ekwb 420 radiator. But after few days about how i can mount this rad - i give up :( It's to big for this case. So i try with other rads and and only these mc rads fit perfectly. The thickness of the radiator allows you to mount the normal fan (25mm), but there is nothing on the motherboard - and this is the most important advantage of this design radiator. In addition, the radiator body as the only fit perfectly to the anchorages in this case. Radiator is mounted on the front without any drilling or cutting holes. Hence the decision to choose these radiators. Temperatures are satisfactory. The LC system copes perfectly with waste heat.

wow thanks for that reply, just the advice i needed. Doing a build in this case, i think i'll have to order a magicool rad. That's what you mean by MC right?

Yes, here you have link: Magicool radiators 140mm

I used 420 and 280.

What camera do you use? I'm starting my first ever big build this summer. I was originally going to ask a friend who's into photography to help me get some pictures but I wouldn't mind doing them myself.

I use a Nikon d90 with multiple lenses. Starting from the standard 18-105 lens, i use a macro 90/f2.8 and 35/f1.8, 50/1.4

Of course, obligatory tripod and Nikon Speedlight SB-900 ;)

Correct me if im wrong, But did you remove the drive bays hard drive cages and midsection from the fractal Design xl case? Not using a optical drive?

Yup, he's using an external optical drive.

Malik, did you end up using the Aquaero 5 waterblock? If so can we get some pics of how you set it up?

At the moment there is no connected aquaero water block, because it will be in another place. Only then did it inclusion in the circuit. But I do not see any problem with that to connect it.

For now - water block mounted on the motherboard, ekwb easy mount for cpu plus ekwb backplate. In the end I can say that all liquid cooling parts are mounted.

Now the system looks like this ...

damn I can only dream that my build will look just as a good as yours malik, you are a great inspiration! That is certainly a beauty!

btw do you video cards sag a little? Mine with the block + backplate sags a lil, I can't tell in your pictures. If it does sag how did you get it to straighten out?

Solution - EKWB SLI connector :)

Yeah, the EKWB SLI connector helps to create a single solid structure out of two cards, instead of two seperate cards, so they sag less ;).

with the added mobo block, how are your temps now?

Almost the same. They differ only 1-2 degrees. Flow fell by 10l / h
You could say that is a very good result :)

Have you got a picture including the pump placement? I'm considering the case and doing it in a similar way to the TJ07. Not sure where I'd put the pump though as I'm planning on putting a quad + dual rad in the bottom with the PSU side mounted.
