whould u say its heavier than a loaded Stacker (same 1 as my mates i pointed u 2 earlier). It really takes 2 of us to move it safely. Its awkward as much as anything else!

In my case yes, but i have two rads, two pumps and two reservoirs, which will add a little to it. If I had added a second rad and res to my 830 I would have to say it's marginally heavier.Quote:

That leaves you with a ton of space for mounting drives, etc. The 830 is so poorly designed space-wise that you can barely get a 240 rad in there with anything else. The case is also quite wide and if you look through this thread you can see that I mounted the hard drives on the side of the bay.
Lots of option. As I mentioned earlier that Lian Li v2000b II Plus looks like a great case as well with a lot of room. It probably doesn't way anymore than this one seeing as it's a thinner aluminum. I mounted them in the bays only because I used two. If I had used one I would have throw it down below or right next to the MB.
The res I mounted could easily have been mounted right on the motherboard tray next to the motherboard leaving all of your bays free. Lots of space to do that as the case is also quite long.
Its the extra space that has really impressed me. When i first saw the case i wasnt all that impressed with its looks but the more ive looked at it the more its grown on me. Im sure i wont use all the space that there but this will more than likely be the last case i buy so may as well get 1 i can grow into.
LOL. I was going to pm you about your side panels and see if you wanted to trade. I can see in a couple of your pics that you have the same space along the top corner where it doesn't fit just right. You can see light around the upper corner. I'm just being picky but for the price it should be a bit better. No big deal. Still the best freakin case I've ever had and am very happy with the way my build turned out. :toast:Quote:

Masaville... I have caught a few of your posts around the liquid cooling section of the forums, and have been meaning to say:
Nice build! :toast:
Double loop sexiness :D

wow... now that is one seriously hardcore watercooling loop.
That must have been a total pain to setup.
I don't like the TJ07s, but I have to give you mad props for the twin pumps and twin res side by side. That looks truly kickass. My next build will be dual loops and I just may use some of your ideas for it.
Awesome!
its a stunning aet up, im gonna attempt something similar myself once i get my case.
That is the best dual loop setup I have ever seen. Mad props to you!
Ya, it was having never done it, heh. Second time around you could probably do it in a less than a day if you have the parts. Most of the time was spent sourcing parts and trying to come up with a way to make it all fit inside. Piece of cake to redo it though. If anyone is thinking of doing something similar and needs a parts list let me know....can save you some time with a list of parts to buy, etc.Quote:

Few quietions
what is the noise like ?
do you get chassic vibration fom the pumps being so close together
what are your water temps at stock and load on both loops
have you overclocked it yet ????
Some evercools I just recently put on the NB and SB. They cool better than the stock pipe and are quieter.

just ordered my case from scan, should be here friday. will order my watercooling stuff in the next few weeks. cant wait hehe
Heavy.. I have a hard time moving my cube if not for the casters. Very awkward shape to move.
very nice man, intresting rig you got there :)
like the hdd mounts and the dual loop plus great job on the rads/pumps. didnt know you could get a quad rad lol
LOL, the thread that never dies. :stick:
I think the LED's on the NB/SB coolers are really killing the look, turn 'em off
i would like to know what you think of the OCZ power supply you got masaville
Don't like it. Fan is too noisy.Quote:

The Silenx to Yate Loon fan swap will prolong the thread life. =PQuote:

whoa amazing setup
Masaville,
You need a LiLi PC-343B build.
hmm and maybe make it 3 loops inside, very nice setup you have.
IanY how about copying his style of mounting 2 rads side by side if its viable to your new planned setup...
WOOT. My case arrived from scan this morning. It looks mahoosive but ive measured it against my antec P160 and its a few inches taller and deeper and half an inch wider. The finish on the case is stunning and its well built. Will post pics of my final build once i get all my watercooling stuff ordered.
