I see 2 a 2x 120 on the top and a 1x 120 over the midcase fan duct.

I love my TJ10 case, very versatile.

Unfortunately the case is not used because the Red Dye tubing
In fact Uv green are the coolant that use is Blue ...
Well, here is my one and a half years for the Mangere red consegue

anyway with UV light is nice

This tubing using this time

The big advantage is the low restriction with another tubing could not make the legs as closed

Waterlogged...i know that made sense when you posted it, but i'm not following, sorry. <:-) Are you saying there's a connection between AC products and Tt ?

Are you saying i'm at risk for the Alum + Copper corrosion problem ? The materials listed on the site are "Reservoir Material(s): Rohm Plexiglas and POM" It's the same res as the one with black caps. I don't think there's any alum. in this res. If anyone can verify, please let me know. Thanks!

Not a patch on some of the art pieces in this thread, but here's my latest build.

First off apologies for the crappy phone camera pics. Secondly apologies for the excuses and lack of photography skills. I tried to tidy them up in photoshop, but the official term for this process is called 'Polishing a turd'.

Just made the move to sub zero. A lot of head scratching involved trying to figure out how I'd get the contents of my TJ-07 in to this tiny Lian-Li P007, but I think I got there.

First off from the crappiest of my camera phone pics the only in progs I took. Somewhere to mount my Rad, and get a bit of extra airflow out of the case. A bit of dremeling:D

http://img236.imageshack.us/img236/8...ldrlm07bl0.jpg

The finished article in all it's badly exposed and grainy glory.

The sensible stuff

http://img244.imageshack.us/img244/4...ldrlm06zq6.jpg

This one photo came out not bad. Looking up inside. Pretty happy with the my dremel cuts.

http://img78.imageshack.us/img78/1319/buildrlm05oz7.jpg

So there ya go. Fun'n'games:D

Just adding this last shot. The pump and res tucked away in the drive bay. Just noticed the foam in my res, need to sort that out lol:D

a potential mod could be to tap the side of that res near the top for an inlet (water flowing from the radiator) or get one that already has it like the EK. it would eliminate the long tubing run going down to the bottom, and would make the loop OH so clean.

again, i love your setup -- it gives me many ideas for my v1000

there's a need for clamps. The system was leak tested for 24 hours too.

Personally I'd still add some clamps just in case as when the water warms up the tubes soften and become more likely to pop off. A couple of posts after you someone did the same with 3/8 over 1/2... I think he might be okay without clamps :rofl:

I think i will. It does look nicer without them for the photos tho, but thats all over now. I'll just start with zip ties and if i get concerned i'll whack on some clamps.

very cool...thanks for the feedback...i certainly have a new appreciation for all of the fine builds here...pictures just don't capture the amount of work that goes into one of these builds.

I'm glad i've been able to inspire some ideas.

that is a good mod idea.
i stayed away from the ek res b/c of the cyclone issue, but if i went with a top inlet, that could work. how full would the res have to be to have the inlet on the top and output on the bottom?

This is my second try on WC and i failed miserably. I was in a big hurry to get this thing ready to lan party in finland, called assembly. Didn't wan't to go there with laptop :rolleyes:

When I get home from there I'm going to rebuild it once again. I already have MCW30 block to use with NB. I also need to make some kind of HDD mounts as I have more HDD's to be mounted. Somehow I need to make airholes to sides of the case, airflow sucks now :( AND lot's of other things I need to do differently.
Funny thing is that when I looked others WC builds I liked the black exterior, silver alloy interior. But now when I did it, it does not look good to me :\ I think I need to paint interior matte black (opinions?).

Just wanted to share so I could get some opinions of my build so I would not do the same mistakes again. so please comment ^_______^

Hopefully here isn't too much pictures from one build:

imo it looks nice as it is mate...

but the matte black interior would be very nice indeed
