What are you using for the red color?
I guess it's time for me to hang up my rig in the gallery. Some of you may have already seen it here:

Here are 3 main pics for your viewing pleasure. You can see alot more of it at the above link.

some nice watercooled rigs in here :)
three loops ? That's Awsome !
even my wife was in awe...
If only you had one of these bud: http://img461.imageshack.us/img461/7...2187ip3.th.jpg
Perfect to multiloop . . .it is a TribalEvolution res
But, lemme say, i LOVE ur rig. Love love love love love.
Here is my first try at watercooling.
I wanted it to all fitt inside the case and started with a to small radiator.
Now I switched to a PA120.2 and had to lift the case a bit. Still need to make some feet or wheels for it.
The next project will be building my own case.
I like the MM cases I see here, but they are just to big to have on my desk.
Very clean build Rob_B! I like it!
looks really clean Rob_B

Anyone know why this camera is so f'ing grainy? It's supposed to be 7megapixel.
That fan extension shouldn't be there, but my fan power slot isn't working in the rear :/
For the dark shot it is cranking the ISO speed way up which allows more light in for a faster shutter (less blur) but makes it grainy. What camera is it? If you can set the camera on something steady so it won't shake and manually drop the ISO down to 100 or 200 it would be much cleaner looking.
Hi Everyone!
It was time to transfer the guts out of my P180b and stuff them into a Mountain Mod UFO. I had a tough time choosing between the black and the white powdercoat. This case was very easy to work with, I only had to drill holes to mount the pump and reservoir. The blue acrylic 3.5 -> 5.25 adapter had to be filed to get the USB port to fit. Thanks to the guys at Mountain Mods, Petra's and Crazy PC for their awesome customer service. What's next? Maybe a quadcore? A second loop? Hmmmm....
Let's get on with the pics:
W00t! Me like Typhon! Yet one more awesome U2-UFO :)
Thanks Patriote! I got the blade style fan guard idea from your MM build.

This week i upgraded my WC system with a full motherboard set from MIPS. Took me about 4 hours to rebuild the system. I really like the end result.

@typhon
im really diggin the gloss white
Red tubing perhaps ....
Like this :Red Tube
djstudio what kind of ramsinks are those?
I've never seen them...
Nope, you can see the fittings clearly.
It's blood red coolant or dye, easily found in almost any online shop.
Garret, they look like Tt's to me.
@Typhon. Now it is looking even better.:up:

Sorry for the bad quality, they were taken with my phone. After seeing Lasse.J's build, it compelled me to sell my 2 8800GTS's and the p5n320e sli and get rid of the stacker t01 and get a p182, p5k deluxe, and a 8800GTX. BTW I still need to paint the interior of the side panels.
Nice loop, Pilatus :)
Well, after many hours of research, a fair bit of cash, and a lot of time spent, this is what I've come up with...
(The pictures that were taken in the dark came out blurry, and I didn't want to pull it out again tonight to take new pictures... I dislike this camera.)
Case without side panel on (fear my lack of cable management skills):

I'm probably going to replace the rad grill, and get at least a few new PSU cables so that I can conceal everything better and have less clutter.
More pics??^^
wheres the Rad? Lol... On the top?
Wow, those Red tubing are really cool !
Food colouring? Blergh. Sediment, here we come.
I think I'll put this month's version of 'finished' up :p: ...

Very clean build, nice except for the manky tubing.
There sure are some great looking setups in here.
I can't wait to get my setup, which will be in an Antec 900.
With the UV die(blue in this case, pun not intended), how many UV light/light sources are really needed to really show off the UV die? I don't want to much purple light in my system, lol.
I'm using just a dual 12" UV CCFL setup in mine. One in the lower part of the case, one above. Works well.
A little Update to my G70..
120.3 + 120.1, 2x DDC Ultra's" GTX Block MCW60 And a EK Res.
http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...n/DSCF0558.jpg
Still testing and sorting cables.
new primoflex tubing came in today and i thought to try and see what stuff the Soprano can keep inside...
well,it was hell but everything except the 3ple rad went inside..
Very nice setups guys. One day I hope to have a nice watercooling setup...I think getting it setup is what scares me out of it lol.
Jared
hey gior, what is holding that rad up? and is it blocking that middle fan from blowing? AND, are you pushing or pulling on that setup?
They are some thin foam pads.i now have them in front an in the end of the rad.
the fans are pushing.
New setup. MCR 220 in the top, GTX w/ bowed base, DDC w/ Alphacool top and res attachment. Really wanted to keep things simple with this setup, which is why I went with the res attachment.

About a month ago I had to make a temporary setup without case, but seems like it's here to stay. Have to learn to save money since I'm starting my studies again :rolleyes:
Hmm this doesn't really fit in to the "case gallery" category but what a heck...

This looks cool:up:
OMG, Poor D5.
Great setup though!
I had a chance to retake some pictures, so I have a few more taken with the lights out... this time with less blurriness (they're still poor quality, but close enough), so here goes:

If I can do my first WC setup at age 55, you can!:up:
It's take your time and go step by step, and that manual takes you step by step..
My 1st watercooling build, was a pain in the ass to put it together and fill it up, it better be worth it now, once I've replaced the mainboard I corrupted 6 hours after starting up the system for the first time :banana:
http://img244.imageshack.us/img244/1139/pict23mw5.jpg
looking good
It will be ok!
If you're nervous then I would recommend some fesser one non conductive coolant. WJA96 on OcUK has a small leak through some cracked acrylic once but his motherboard was fine. The coolant just left some scum on a USB header on the motherboard which he cleaned off with IPA.
Just take your time to do a proper leak test with tissue paper.
A few things about your loop:
I don't see the need for the delrin 90 degree fitting before the video card block. Tubing should be able to go from your processor block to the VGA block without kinking.
7/16th tubing seals much better than 1/2". Look at your second picture and see how badly the tubing needs to be squished to the barb with a hose clamp.

xpatar: definitely looks good, i'm a fan of the v1000 and 2000 series cases.

Thought I'd add to the discussion. I recently heavily modified my Nine Hundred and water cooled it as well. I will say that it was the biggest pain in the ass I've ever had to deal with, but the results were well worth the effort. Here's some photos.

This next one, the 12volt cord was lengthened and modified from a 6 pin to a 4 pin connector (Thermaltake decided an adapter wouldn't be a good thing to include) I'm still not happy about this cut out though, it's not as clean as I'd like.

I'm sure many will disagree with me, but i found the best location on this case for the fill port would be at the bottom. It can be inconvenient for filling, but i really don't see a better location available.

Well....sorry i got so liberal with the picture taking. The system rocks my socks. Here's the specs.
Intel Core 2 Due E4300 over clocked to 3.9 Ghz from 1.8 Ghz
Nvidea 8800GTS 620mb Overclocked horrendously (can't give exact numbers at this time)

2x 320 GB Barracudas in RAID 0
hope you have enjoyed folks. with a little TLC the Antec Nine Hundred can be a beautiful case.
how did you mount the pump in your antec 900
i say the tubing is supporting the pump with some fish strings on the top, haha
