Project : L3p D3sk

Nope, it's goin to be powdercoated :)

Such a gorgeous build. Loving the green liquid under the UV lights.

A dream desk right there! :up:

Been a while, but here some new pics !

Powdercoating will have to wait a while, since we're expecting a "l3p junior" in 3 weeks :)

So here some small updates i can still do.

Been busy with different LED colors, some overclocking, and build the pumps back from 1x dual top to 2x single top.

This is how it will look after the coat job.

And some OC results

Been running with this without any problems for 2 weeks now.

I liked the pumps more with the mods in front.

http://www.l3p.nl/files/Hardware/Des...%5B550x%5D.JPG

I will use this as reset switch.
I´ll use the existing one for the pumps or the leds.

And here my play session with SMD Led :)
Found out Blue with UV is the best for me.
So i'll need 3 switches to make everything work as i want

switch A - 2 x 120cm blue
switch B - 3 x 120 cm UV
switch C - 1 x 120 cm Amber

Thanks http://www.wiinds360.nl/ for sponsoring me!

You are insanely creative! skills at this level is priceless. Builds like this revolutionize the art of PC modding. Very impressive :up:

Looking at this makes me want to build my own ;) great job!

This is one seriously cool desk, however we need more close up shots of the mobo and gfx card!!! I love how the UV lights light up the coolant.

Very impressive. Absolutely love this desk. :up:

Finally found some time for a little update ;)

Got something nice from a friend @ Highflow.nl forum.
Hope it'll fit :)

http://www.l3p.nl/files/Hardware/Des...%5B550x%5D.JPG

Found a piece of window film/foil @ work and just had to try it :)

(Thanks for the idea Anachlores !)

-When the Leds are off, the desk should be normal black

-When the Leds are on everything should be visible.

I know this is the wrong foil, but it was only to test how it looks.
In 3 days im getting some foil samples from a friend to test further.

http://www.l3p.nl/files/Hardware/Des...%5B550x%5D.JPG

http://www.l3p.nl/files/Hardware/Des...%5B550x%5D.JPG

And bought some blocks from a friend, im totally in love with plexi now :)

http://www.l3p.nl/files/Hardware/Des...%5B550x%5D.JPG

http://www.l3p.nl/files/Hardware/Des...%5B550x%5D.JPG

outstanding project!
really makes me want to build something like it someday.

The window foil idea isn't working out very well yet.
And a real B#$@ to get the glue off the glass afterwards :)

Bought some second hand BP fittings from a friend, so i don't come short when building in the extra pump, mosfet blocks and hdd in the loop.
Also cleaned up my own leftovers.


http://www.l3p.nl/files/Hardware/Des...%5B550x%5D.JPG

Never build a website before, but this week i took some time for it.
All my Builds, Mods and other stuff together.

I hope it were enough pictures :D

Very nice temp drop man. well worth all the work u put in.. :up:

That is one killer desk, although I would never want to go with such a deep color in a fluid. So much gunk build up! :(

Never had any problems with gunk though.
The cpu block looks very dirty, but its the flasher that lightens up the UV-active fluid

I made an how-to lap your cpu at www.l3p.nl

I was curious about the temperatures @ stock speeds.
Can't wait till it starts to freeze in Holland ;)
