man that case is gonna be cramped :D subscribed! :up:

Haha you've no idea, these SFF are a PITA to build in. Nice mobo Statts ;)Quote:

I owned one back when they came out, and once I leapt to 4GB ram, it all went to hell. The motherboard wouldn't hot boot, and Gigabyte's Tech Support was.... putting it very kindly... useless. I spent two weeks talking to them, sent it in, and got it back as "works fine".

Well, had a big change of pace today, saw a Lian Li V350 in the flesh and fell in love with it! Hence, I brought one right home. Currently in the process of putting the parts into it (will have pics later) and hopefully my Bitspower dual rotary 90's are here in the next couple of days so I can start on the water cooling.
Yes, the plan is still MCR220 internally fitted, all parts are the same as before.
All silver parts on the case will be anodized to match the exterior :)
looks like a real tight fit .. this is gonna be a real challenge :up:
Yes, will be, but I'm sure it will be fine. I have a couple of ideas for placement of the radiator, tossing up between them as to which will look most at home with the style of the case.
Well, just received my Bitspower order FINALLY after being messed around a bit by e-tailers. Not a huge order but it's all I need to have this loop looking schmick. Update soon with them installed.

Put some of the fittings in:

And then started putting together the hardest part of the loop, the CPU -> GPU section:

And then trial fitted it back in the case to check it cleared the HDD cage:

Moire updates soon!
Nice work statts!
Those BP rotaries work a treat. Keep it coming. :cool:
Uffff that was a tight fit.... got love those 45....
nice work :)
Looking good, what will you be using to cool the memory of your 8800GT ?
I have some iandh ramsinks I need to modify to fit on. The card is non-reference design so they don't quite fit.Quote:

Looks nice so far. From that last pic I'd have gone around the end of the card and if the 90 degree fitting will fit have that connected directly to the GPU block.
Fairly impractical solution, and extra tubing length. Pretty happy with how it is. When the rest of the loop gets finished, you shall see.Quote:

Not my cleanest work, but all cuts will be hidden between the radiator and fans, so I'm not too bothered.
More pics when the rad is mounted. Need to find the right size hole saw.
Hey, I'm fitting a rad in a SG-01, I've done it a bit different to you.
Here's the picture:

Well done, hope it all works out :)
Looks good :up:Quote:

that link between cpu and gpu looks sweet!
:orders more rotarys and 90's:
Well, as promised, a little bit of progress today. Got myself some new hole saws for the side panel pass-through and the fill port and drain port. Pictures speak better than I.....

is the tubing going over the card kinking or is it a wacky optical illusion?
Maybe a tiny bit but I would worry about any vibration that could weaken the tubing where it touches the vga cardQuote:

Pump mounted. 'Q' rotary fitting comes from GPU to pump and off to fill port and drain port:

Just have to do the Rad -> CPU tube now, which is going to be the hardest of the lot, given the lack of space!
