no, are quite noisy but not as the Sanyo Denki 109R1212H1011 on the other rad.
the psu cables are sleeved, the extra cables are witout sleeve (the small lcd on the top, the molex-3pin adapter,led and other).
i'll do it, but i'm not sure to leave the cables in that way or find another solution.
nice, you got any picture on the graficcard?
Been meaning to post for months now and I keep forgetting. You guys always give constructive feedback!!

That's beautiful!
Stoner, can you post a shot or two of the motherboard and motherboard area? Also, if you have any models of it that you made in a computer modeling program can you PM them to me?
Thanks
@aicjofs, man that looks sweet!!! :up: :up: :shocked:
What temps are you getting on your CPU and NB?
What fans are you using on your rad?
Is that D5 or D4 pump?
Lol, sorry for all the questions... :p:
Looks great! :up:
@aicjofs
Very nice! I like the red liquid. I think that red and black look great together.:up:
@stoner
Copier . . .regarding the Alphacool display ;)

Just Beautiful! :clap:
What case is that and how did you mod that side panel?
At benching overclocks(which is worst case) depends on realtemp or coretemp. Using coretemp it's about 55C full load and low 40's idle. Realtemp after calibration shows about 10-15C cooler. Thats with QX9650 at 4.5Ghz and 1.57V(the bench speeds). North bridge gets to about 42C with 1.65V under full load.Quote:

Fans are Yateloon D12SL's. Loudest part is the DVD rom at spin up.
D5 pump.
Glad everyone likes the colors. It was tough getting the liquid to match the GPU shroud. I keep thinking I should have powder coated the inside red...I have sample pictures of colors I'll post later. Next one I'm going to try will be a blue interior.
On that note anyone know about the fans in the OCZ RAM cooler. The LED's are a terribly bright blue. I was thinking 1) snap off the LED's but I don't know for sure they aren't in series with stator, 2) Black nail polish over them, 3) Replace...but I can't find any replacement fans that are thin enough.
Thanks for all the kind comments, because I have seen a lot of TJ07 mods that seem better. :up:
EDIT:
Silverstone TJ07. I didn't have to mod the side panel, they have one with a window. That said, I DO want to mod the side panel. I'd like to try drilling some holes and placing LEDs in the acrylic so that the outer edge of the window will glow red. I have wanted to do that mod since the beginning but I never get around to ordering the LED's.Quote:

Aicjofs, that is one of the most beautiful builds I've ever seen.
indeed a very nice and clean rig :clap:
Indeed, Love the red liquid with black hoses but love the alu GTX less.
Stoner,
that's one heck of a case.
And I love it.
Aicjofs, that's my case of choice and a very nice setup up. One question though. How did you get the rear covers and internal structure black? Did you paint them yourself, or is Silverstone now offering it like that off the shelf?
i just drew some sketches on a piece of paper the idea so no sketchup's model or similar. sorry
here some shots of motherboard area

Leaving the long running alum/nickel plated/multi metal loop corrosion debate out of it. I think you might be right for just the reason that the copper top replacement might give a more uniform appearance with the copper NB/SB/Regulator heatpipe assembly. I might just do that change, although the GTX holddown will still be silver in color...Quote:

No Silverstone doesn't offer it(they should though huh? :D ) As you probably know the TJ07 comes almost completely apart so powder coating it is easy. Putting all the screws in every hole of the motherboard trays keeps the holes from filling up during the powder coating with the added side effect of having black screws to work with in the end, downside was there seems like 100 holes in that tray. The painting the backside kind of just happened. The masking wasn't good enough and there was a bit of overspary through the air vents near the i/o shield area so the backside got completely powder coated and then the extra power supply grill too to match. I actually do like it better that way.Quote:

Here is the unused hard drive cages painted up with some different powder coats to to see some different ideas. Nothing was masked and some sides are coated with different color on top of each other so there is some bleed through. The black in the case was like 90% gloss, I wasn't too fond of it as it ends up a finger print magnet, something with a little more texture on the next build I think will be better. I like the black classic look myself but some people like the flash and bling so had to look at other color schemes too.
Higher gloss Red and White

Here's a ugly funky green(You could match the Nvidia green exact if you wanted too, which might look cool, actually if you look at the picture above on the lower left of the red you can see what the green looks like, lighting wasn't good for any of these pictures) and some textured blue.
http://home.comcast.net/~aicjofs/Green_Texture_blue.JPG
The texture up close.
http://home.comcast.net/~aicjofs/Close_up_texture.JPG
A blue (with the bleed through that isn't in the finished product), and a black texture that almost looks dark blue in this lighting. Sorry for the poorly lighted low res pics, but just trying to show ideas.

Before i get new metal table i used wooden one, rev.1.0 :)

I use Feser Red Dye available here. It's a pretty dark red in normal light and a dark red-orange under UV.
