well the initial entry period will be a few days - but yes guys, the contest I will be having will be a watercooling edition of Fugger's Simon says contest - the "registration" for the contest will not require any watercooling parts but subsequent portions will ;)
and of course the wonderful grand prize will be the 2nd design one-of-a-kind lamptron FC-3 designed by me :) there will be good runner-up prizes for modders as well :up:
Awesome contest idea! :up: Damn it I am at work till 11pm...:cussing:
contest rounds will be, at their shortest length, 24hrs long - that way people all around the world can participate, I will ship anywhere ;)Quote:

YESSSS!!!! Ready and willing to rip the computer apart. I am gathering all spare parts...
yeah, the enermax revos are really amazing for stability/etc...but i really dont know why enermax continues to insist on a lot of their halfbaked things...stopping stock sleeve INCHES away from a connector, the splitters concealed within stock sleeve, sleeving up to the first connector only (well, ok, a bunch of companies do that)
edit: anything for us that don't watercool?
hmmm - I am sorry that it is only watercooling Dragoon - I want the contest to be for people making new/updated builds that will be of need of the controller and have a good use for it and will be using it in a build in the LC worklogs section
awwwww i dont have any liquid cooling
though i wouldant have room/use for it but itd find a home soon probably
I understand snipe...I don't need the fan controller, both my current rigs have one, I'm just more interested in finding out what the rest of the "goodies" would be, lol
'IF'.....I win that custom Lamptron controller I will be swapping the blue LED's for red one's. Would look cool I think. Then again I would have to win it first so I am getting ahead of myself here. :rofl:
I'm a busy busy guy thats for sure

sniipe what is that?
its all 24 wires laid out and cut to exact length in my living room on the foot stool, I work on the couch so that I can stand to do it for more than 20 minutes or so at a time.
What 4890 Cards are you using ? =o
Hehe, I did the opposite - I wanted a blue theme for the HAF, so I changed it's front 230mm fan to blue. Great project.Quote:

Some cool stuff in that thread. I like that mod very much, and if I had an FC-2, it would already be in pieces on my desk :)Quote:

pics later maybe tomorrow because I must attend to my girlfriend ;)
Indeed very important task you got there :D We can wait a bit for the pics, don't worry bro. You don't wanna have to end up molesting the fill port :ROTF:, go take care of your girl man ;)Quote:

Can't wait for that comp, I might do the Project Flow Tribute ;) Seeing as I also have a 4890, a quadcore Phenom II and the same motherboard :D
