You got some really good progress out there my friend. I liked your mesh work a lot, it looks pretty original actually. Congratulations. :up:
Cheers,

did some tubing today but still don't know which gpu it might be :)

and a few cables are alrdy hidden

mh don't know yet but I could mount 1 radiator like this:

please don't pursue this idea :(Quote:

already thought about a new midplate.
cuts for a dual +cables/tubes. gonna get one laser cut + new backplate for the psu :)
Hi Sargantas! Great build so far I love the case! I was wondering if you could do a quick point and shoot for me if you have a spare 3x120mm laying around or just point out where the 3rd fan from the front ends? I'd just like to see where that end point is so I can guage whether or not my 320mm will fit there and I'll be able to use some of the pins covered up on the mobo. Thanks!

nah I won't mount a radiator outside the case. I'll give it a try with the quad and the dual.
uhm Stvwndr219 have a look at page 2. I mounted the dual in the middle of the 4 fans, so it's the same like a triple. the shroud won't give you more space in height, it's the same like mounting it directly to the top plate.
hope these 2 more pic gonna help you but keep in mind, that these only show the end of the fan.

checked some locations for uv, looks ok for me

damn reflection...but you won't see the uv cathodes =)
Finally I was able to go on. Alrdy tested the pc with some of the parts from the mm. But after all, I had time to get an i7 920, 2 Sapphire Toxic 4890 and found 6gb 1600 Gskill in my cupboard.
Cute one isn't it :D
http://alexiel.stor.li/v2000/ati4890.jpg
http://alexiel.stor.li/v2000/12.09.%20ati.jpg
Quite a tight fit...a gtx 28x wouldn't fit at all. There would be more space if I turn the radiator about 180° but that doesn't matter at all since this isn't the gaming pc =)
I've alrdy ordered a second 4890 cause it's a bit lonely :D and ofc 2 EK blocks for em.
The i7 920 looks promising, only 0,87v-0,9v @ stock load...could be a nice overclocking one.
Had no time atm to go for overclocking since I'm working on my Mountain Mods/Deathangel6 too but I hope I make progress this weekend.
looking nice, how you like the 4890?
well actually I am a bit impressed by the stock cooler and didn't know that I bought the overclocked versions...
quite silent compared to the 4870 and it does its job well.
funny one is, it has a higher win7 index than my 3way :D
three way? you had tri sli 280's right?Quote:

well I'm using 3x280 (at 750/1614/1150) in my main rig, well at least till there are benchs from the gt300/5870.
the single 4890 has an index of 7, the 3x280 only 6,4 and I doubt that the single 4890 is as fast as the oced 3way ^^
but well, doesn't matter, it's just a poor m$ index which doesn't show the true performance.
I had 2 sapphire 4870 too...even at idle loud as hell and almost 70-80°c.
the 4890 stays quite cool and u don't recognize the fan at all but well doesn't matter, the blocks should arrive on monday =)
quite a busy day today since I'm working on my main rig and the external unit too...changed the fans for some 1200 slipstream and some enermax everest (the 17 kaze 3000 were getting on my nerves :ROTF: ), started to sleeve the pcie cables of the silverstone.
ok the red tubes are looking damn ugly with blue fans, gonna change that too.
the 920 could be a nice one, first test with 20x200 & 1,3v worked flawlessly @ 45-50°c at load.
gonna check max core speed and minimum vcore tomorrow =)

All that cooling just for the CPU & NB and aircooled graphics cards ?
Im liking ur work tho, going to finalize my own V-2000 build soon, just having trouble deciding radiator placement :up:
Heya, I'm sorry for the delay but I was quite busy.
@hewi:
Actually, I wanted to watercool the 2 4890s too. But maybe I just switch the GPUs as soon as I have some new ones for my main rig.
At the moment, I'm working on the v2000 and my main one.
v2000:
Changed the fans to add some airflow

http://alexiel.stor.li/v2000/08.11.%20radiator2.jpg
http://alexiel.stor.li/v2000/08.11.%20radiator3.jpg
But at the moment I have to finish the main one.
First step:
Rebuilding the external unit
Bought some huger 400 EK Res's, the old ones were just too small and some Feser Fluid.
http://alexiel.stor.li/single%20stag...20ek%20res.jpg
http://alexiel.stor.li/single%20stag...1.%20feser.jpg
Don't know why or how...but seems like that there was a lil rest of the red Feser...and now...well it looks pink
http://alexiel.stor.li/single%20stag...deathangel.jpg
Loop setup:
loop 1/cpu: res -> D5 -> 3x360 -> D5 -> Cpu -> res
loop 2/gpus: res -> D5 -> 2x360 -> D5 -> Gpus -> res
loop 3/mb: res -> D5 -> 360 -> Mb -> res
I will add the sensor displays and the mesh later on.
And the main rig. Actually I love my Mountain Mods Asc but there is a reason for switching the cases. U'll see why later on too =) (maybe someone finds the lil hint at the pics, why I choose the smaller Lians)

http://alexiel.stor.li/single%20stag....10.%20hdd.jpg
http://alexiel.stor.li/single%20stag....11.%20hdd.jpg
System is the same like before, just added a new Silverstone Strider 1500 and 2 Intel Postville.
And pls don't kill me for the cable management ^^ I'm glad that I had enough time to switch the cases but ofc, gonna do that cause it looks like %/&$ atm ;)

http://alexiel.stor.li/single%20stag...%20system2.jpg
http://alexiel.stor.li/single%20stag...%20system3.jpg
That's all for the moment. Hope I have more time to sleeve and hide all these ugly cables.
Holy cow dude! WOW man, massive airflow! Massive loops
sry for the delay, still waiting for the single stage....
at least some new parts arrived today :)
http://alexiel.stor.li/ati%205970.jpg
and a lil, naked cpu for benching
http://alexiel.stor.li/intel%20w3520.jpg
ordered some ek blocks...hope they will arrive early next week.
more updates of sleeving, tower mods and so on as soon as the cam battery is loaded.
5970's! Some nice hardware, can't wait to see this finished already.
hey sargatanas, nice system you got there. quick question, what brand are those temp displays on your Lian Li PC-A71F build.
think should be innovatek ones but I changed em since they didn't work very well with the aquacomputer sensors.
ordered some new scythe ones with phobya sensors.
at least I had some time to mount the gpu blocks :)
http://alexiel.stor.li/single%20stag...2.%20atiek.jpg
drool:O lol nice work man!
how did you attacht the mesh to the sidepanels?
planning to do smth similar to mine (catched a v2000b up in january), bit inspired by yours, only mine's gonna be 3 loops I hope, or at least 2
