Four Simple Rules:
1) No larger than 1280 x 1024 pixel (but 1024 x 768 pixel is preferred),
2) The limit on the number of pictures is 4 per case (if you want to post more than 4 pictures, use thumbnails or post links without using the IMG tags),
3) Do not quote images,
4) Finished cases only, no worklogs.
Optionally, it would be nice if you could list your water cooling components.
I'll put my hat in the ring.

CPU: Intel Core i7-2600K 3.4GHz @4.1GHz
VGA: GIGABYTE ATI-AMD HD6970 GV-R697D5-2GD-B 2GB GDDR5 PCIE
RAM: Apacer 4096MB 2000MHz CL9 DDR3 ARES KIT
SSD: OCZ RevoDrive PCI-Express SSD 50GB
HDD: 2x Samsung 500Gb 3,5" HDD Raid0

Fittings: Monsoon Free Center Compression - Chrome, Bitspower Shining Silver Rotary 90°
system gross weight: about 30kg :D
....absolutely quiet of course. :)
Have a nice day!
Nice, what are your temps (and ambients) ?
Thanks! :)
The temps of this system highly depends on the environmental temperature and the RPMs of the 3 fan. I can set the RPMs manually with the knob on the back side.
In summer, when the outside temp was about 28 celsius than the load (gaming) temp was the following: CPU about 45-50 celsius GPU about 53-58 celsius. Without any tuning and the funs were on lowest RPM.
The minimal temps in idle mode and with 23 celsius outside temp are about 35-38 cesius by the CPU and GPU also (Funs on lowest RPM).
So, there is no problem with the temps at all. It is very good and stable system. :)
Sorry for my english.

@ VIPER.... Will do when I get home from work. The top can hold a 240 rad BUT you have to use a thin one if you want fans on it. The case is a very nice case though. Very clean and very tidy. Sorry for the bad pic but i have a crappy camera.

Can you post some more pics from the inside, because soon I'll buy the same case :)Quote:

Can the cooling liquid go through the VGA blocks on this way?

I understand that there are many questions about this solution.
I'm not a theorist, I want to try it in practice
and prepared to do so properly.
Someone had to finally take practice tests ... to find answers.
Work in progress, I decided to use a very strong pumps.
Koolance 450 Strong x2
Iwaki RD-30
Swiftech 35X turbo
After testing will present the results.
Prodigy from thai :D
http://image.ohozaa.com/i/5d0/yam1fg.jpg http://image.ohozaa.com/i/83d/hXsP9o.JPG
@Elder: looks like it's a very non-restrictive loop. Higher flow pumps should get the best results
That is gorgeous!
But, is that a kink in the hose going from CPU block to RAM block or am I seeing things?
Nope everything is fine :) It's just an illusion :)Quote:

Yep! I know its overkill, I intended to cool the GPU and board but turns out there aren't waterblocks for either of them. Using Thermalright X-Silent 120/140s at low speed.Quote:

Xtremly nice build u got there Conman :)
@CoNMan --> Sometimes the LED light system in a case can be a hit or miss, but with your color selection it looks great in your case!!! Is that a grey or white LED?
Sorry, kinda color blind which doesn't help for picking color themes for a system! The dark red makes the case look much more evil due to not being able to see many of the components other than the red tubing pumping fluid thru the beast!
Thank you ante_ante and fuzelogic
The led is nzxt white led strip.
That is a great looking rig you have there.:up:Quote:

might wanna get gold-platted copper tubing then ! ;)
mmm metallic tubing eh...I prefer white tubing to create a contrast between the colour of copper and white of tubing: the sun, the ligh are orange and white, if I use copper-coated tubing this contrast doesn't work...Quote:
