Malk, you sure are one crazy bastard :yepp: I thought about using some Coolit TECs before in a previous build but you have just taken it to another xtreme with the amount you are using!

Good luck with the build and sub'd! :up:

Yes that was a bit hight but it was a crude test on one unit only which had a faulty peltier module... Ops... Still waiting for my new TEC's to arrive from China...

Sounds like it's time to purchase another one.... The only real issue with mine is the sharp edges... I sliced my fingers open a few times...

Update... Getting ready to install my second PSU.... I guess it's time to start cutting & drilling.....

I recently purchased 2 hard drive cages for this build but I really didn’t like the silver look so I decided to paint them… Oooo and I upgraded to a quieter fan…

Outstanding, impressive project!

I am really curious to follow your project. Attention Malkiewicz, on Xtreme Systems we are only looking. If there is an electric power cut general in Japan, we are for nothing there! We are any witnesses that is only you! :D

It's fascinating, good continuation. :up:

Thanks… Yes this thing will draw allot of power… Good thing I’m not responsible for the power bill… :up:

I'm going to use the attached switches to control the power.... No need to have this running at 100% all the time...

How much did that anti-vandal switch thing cost ... both the switches and the holder?

First off I would like to thank everyone for the positive reviews… I’m practically an unknown on xtreme and I appreciate those who took the time to look at / provide constructive criticism and or comments…

Today:

Installed the 1st TFC radiator today… Look good IMO :up:… I’m still working on the Triple TFC “Was delivered with minor damage”…
Decisions - decisions… Not sure if I should use black or clear tubing? Possible both with blood red coolant… I’m also still trying to figure out the pump/res combination… All of my bays are full…

Looking great mate, Loving it

I think a mixture of black/clear tubing with blood red coolant is definately the way to go

Keep it up

Took a quick picture of my case without the base…. Hopfully I’ll have time to install the triple/radiator later on today… (Enjoying the nice weather – it’s been raining for weeks and I love to work outside.)

I'm not sure how well they work but I wish you the best... Dust is dust and it always finds a way in....

Thank You, TEC's are defiantly fun to work with but can be damaged easily... Give it a go... There's defentaly cheaper ways to build them....

My new toy... Will make a few holes when my BP parts arrive... Still waiting
