Water Cooled Case Gallery

nice cosmos :up:

can we get more pics how you mounted the rad in the top?

I love the look of those boards. That looks amazing spoony. You should replace the stock gold galaxy fan guard with a silver or painted black one. :). Well, maybe not usually fan guard mods make the general mod look bad, so maybe the gold should stay. Just a thought.:up:

It's a thermochill PA 120.2 with 4x Yate loon push-pull in the front of the case.
You can actually see the 2 illuminated Yate loons in the front in some of the pictures.

A 120.3 should have been better but it's not possible to fit it in unless i bin the optical drive. Not an option really.

I want everything inside the case so i have to make do with this.

I haven't ran anything like prime to test the temps out yet, maybe I will in the future, but I don't really have intention on overclocking.

sick rig spoony. the galaxy looks awesome :D

Nice rig spoony but why the elbow just after the pump? Did the video cards get in the way of the bend?

Not so innovative here.

Seems that money talks :welcome:

hey spoony what kinda brand that radiator of yours is ?

but tell me... were the pre-cut tubing holes really that useless, you had to drill new ones?
i really don't want to do that, as my drill is a biatch :(

Hey Thanks ! As Waymond said you'll dig into trouble if you intend to use the holes that came with the antec, you can turn the rad upside down but it's really simple to make that holes...

As some ppl requested here are some new pics on the antec 900 adventure ;)

Cheers !!! Sergio

Thanks for the replies guys. I am glad you like it.

The radiator is just a swiftech mcr320 QP. I will post pictures of how it is mounted when I get home this afternoon. I really was worried about the EK supreme causing flow problems so I have two MCP355 pumps with XPC res tops in the loop. According the flow rate estimator I am getting about 1.4 gpm.

The case is just a coolermaster cosmos. I painted the inside flat black because I didn't like the metal look on the inside.

looks awesome spoony very sleek very clean just the way i like my pc's :)

I see you sleeved your 6pin and mobo power connectors must of been a pita ?

Looks great though One of my fav cosmos!

I like the outcome of the sleeving process, but about halfway through it I was beginning to doubt my efforts. It is very time consuming and hurts the fingers. I ended up just buying new connectors, pins, and a crimping tool to do the job.

yeh those pins are a bugger to get out, so i had to splice and re wire mine, the outcome in your build looks awesome tho

This is the best picture I have as to how I mounted the radiator. I just cut a piece out that would allow air to flow through the entire radiator and drilled holes to mount it. You can also see where I cut a spot in the bottom to house the pa120.2. My rookie building, modding, wc'ing showed up when I started to put the two loops in only to find out it wasn't going to work the way I wanted it to. I ended up having to fabricate a piece to cover up the hole I had cut in the bottom.

excellent work on the paint job looks flawless

sergio, very nice work there :up:


I took a few more, this is the best i could do without major case mods :p:

I was going to drill holes in the back of the case for the tubing, i went to two hardware stores and couldn't find the right size bits :down:

Thanks, my temps are great. With this E8400, the core reading seem to be buggy. So i go by the "CPU" temp (Tcase?). At stock voltage and clocks, my temp goes up 1c on load. At 4ghz, it goes from 21c to 36c.

Oh yeah, i love my monitor :up:

What tubing is this? Also, pump and reservoir do you have? All I can say is that is amazing! I really like the black coolant!

Regarding the pics, I love the black on black! Looks real classy too.
