I think it looks sharp. Sweet wire management too, nice and clean. :up:
Here's my contribution to the thread. Long time lurker, first water cooling system. Starting out simple, with cpu only loop. Some things I forgot to do: Make an extension from the rpm of the dcc to the cpu header, sleeve my ghetto hard drive cooler's wires, and rotate it so the wires are closer to the other side. Placement of the T-line isn't aesthetically pleasing imo. If theres anything I could improve on, please let me know!

Nice build! Is that the G92 8800GTS?
Yes it is. At first I wanted a GTX but when I heard a new GTS was to be released after the GT, I waited. My wallet thanked me :)
Thanx for the comments guys. :up:
I agree with disruptfam with these white ccfls, can give you quite a tan on one side of your face if turned on indefinitely!:D
@ Pharoahe808 and ka lok,
Can you show me any more pictures and the wire management? Back side of the board? Build logs? Radiator T-line pump placement?
I am about to change boards in my TJ07 and drill the MB tray. I could use all the inspiration that I can get. Feel free to PM me any tips.
Thanks ka lok, thats definitely way better than how I have it now. Now I just need a way to hide that hideous T-line lol
@spider_d: My cable management was completely inspired by AndyM, but I can take a few pics for your when I get home if you're still interested.
Hot stuff there welshtom, love the reservoirs and the fuzion.
I'm sorry I hate the color scheme lol... but the interior is very well done, clean etc... nice backplate-like mosfet coolers too :D
Hi there
Dont really have a work log as such but did get loads of good ideas from diff people (AndyM and Ladderman to name a few)
Do have a few pics of the back panel and lower compartment. Will take a few more tom as well!
Basically I made 4x1 inch holes in the MB tray using a holesaw and plugged them with rubber gromets (1 for CPU power, MB power, Video card and jumpers).
Have also made a 3 inch hole in the gulley of the divider behind the MB tray using a dremel and a reinforced cutting disc.
I also used door stops to prop up the rad. Had to drill 4x holes in the bottom of the case to secure them.
Hope this helps. Good luck with the modding!:up:
I love that red/black scheme Welshtom!
KA_LOK, what brand is the coolant/dye you are using??
is it purple.. or supposed to be red?
i think silverstone make them, but im not too sure. Ill try and find them
I think the front mesh is in fact made up of Lian Li Black Mesh 5.25" Front Bezels, Like the ones on the LL PC-A16 http://www.lian-li.com/product/produ...index=4&type=b
Wanted to post a follow up but with the holidays I have been offline for a bit..
Just to clear up any confusion I am an end-user for the Murderbox, I was involved in some of the design and layout but the craftsmanship was all Charles at Murderbox.
I was so excited and happy with the results I had to post the pics here and tried to answer questions to the best of my abilities.. the Murderbox is a commercial product and in hindsight I should probably have been more clear about that.
I saw a post that was asking about costs.. these finished machines are definitely in the top price brackets for custom PC's. Each machine is a hand made computer for its owner and as such each one is unique in many aspects including costs. As someone who laid out his cold hard cash for one I think the value in these pieces of art are clearly visible.
The best analogy I could think of is one from the car world. The Muderbox is much like the custom coach builders, taking a proven chassis and constructing hand made custom machines of impeccable detail and quality, think Boyd Coddington, Chip Foose and so on. As good as all the comments about the workmanship have been from the pics I can tell you that in person the level on detail and execution is even more outstanding.
I moved web hosts over the holidays and the images were lost but they are all available with some more at the Murderbox site, just click Gallery. The 'glowy' shots proved to more of a challenge in matching the exposure of the outside to the inside of the case.. the Options page on the site shows you the darker glowy look.
Hope everyone had a great holiday season and happy modd'n on 08'
