I think A.C. Ryan needs to work on his color swatches; the color is supposed to be red….looks pink to me.
yeah that fan defo looks pink! i was gonna get some of those 2.Lucky i didn't,i thought you had a d-tek fuzion ? maybe i was looking @ another worklog?
Fuzion v1 and v2 outperforms the gtx by a few degree's and would suit your build aesthetics a bit more imo. :)
look forward to more updates
Not a good case? There have been so many great WC builds with this case, it has influenced me so that this will be the first case I ever use for WC (Coming Soon).Quote:

Lol nope, I’ve always had the Apogee GTX. I cant really justify getting a d-tek fusion when I already have a GTX and the d-tek fusion’s barb orientation doesn’t fit with my tubing layout.Quote:

After staring at the case for a few hours I realized the most under utilized space is behind the front cover, and thus I must put something there.
A few of the ideas I’ve been toying with but I’m sure where to start:
-RFID Security/Automation
-A moving/sliding door
Here is a quick preview of some of the “toys” I’ve ordered:
5 x Serial ATA II Data Cable with latching mechanism 45cm (18") Straight to Left Angle - Black (SATA2-SL-BK-18)
2 x Serial ATA II Data Cable with latching mechanism 60cm (24") - Straight to Right Angle - UV Red (SATA2-UVR-SR-24)
1 x Ultra PC Vent II with 2 LED 45mm Fans PCI System Exhaust - Black (ULT30986)
2 x *** NEW *** Scythe "ITA KAZE" Slim Hard Disk Cooler (SCIT-1000)
1 x Evercool Cool Wheel Hard Drive Cooler HD-CW-SR - Black Cover. Red Fan (EC-HD-CW)
2 x *** NEW *** Lamptron ClearPuk - 7 LED Spread Lighting Module - Sleeved - Red (CLEARPUK-RD)
2 x Premium EL Wire : Red (ELWRED)
2 x EK Spare Reservoir Holders (Set of 2) (EK-RES-HOLDERS)
1 x Fan Screws - #4 X 3/8" Stainless Steel - Set of 4 (FAN-SCREWS4-38)
1 x Motherboard Quick Disconnect Cable 10-Pin - Sleeved (MOBO-QUICKDISC)
4 x Serial ATA II Data Cable with latching mechanism 45cm (18") - Straight to Right Angle - UV Red (SATA2-UVR-SR-18)
4 x 120 mm Fan Grill - Black (GRILL120BK)
1 x Logisys 2 AC Base Adaptor w/ Remote Control (RM202)
1 x Diamond Disk - Compare to Dremel 545 - Bulk (545)
25 x 18AWG Stranded Hook Up Wire UL Approved - Black (NTE-18AWG-BK)
1 x Conductx™ Molex Quad-Splitter, 5xUVLED, UVblue (ACR-CB4432)
2 x *** NEW *** Koolance Swiveling Angle Fitting (Low Profile), Single (NZL-LXG2)
Looking good. I agree these cases are a challenge. I've been watercooling one for a whilen now and will also be rebuilding it soon.
Curious to see what all the led thingies are for in that order =D
Well this IS XS so once the performance side has been taken care of, then its time for the “Bling” and toys.
I will be writing/designing a program to allow an RFID Tag to hold logon passwords. Another project will set off an alarm if the computer goes out of range (say 10ft).
No one will be jacking my :banana::banana::banana::banana: in college!
Either way, there are lots of extras….I hope I don’t need a better PSU.
Nice! Keep up the good work.
Impresive work man;)
You're extremly carefull mods and they look very well;)
PD: wich fans are you using in corsair's airflow?
For now I have a few quick questions:
- Does anyone have images of the thermal distribution on the bottom of a DDC pump?
- How does one achieve a flattened area around a port on a circular reservoir? (Like the Ek Reservoirs)
- Some of my koolance fittings have begun to chip; exposing the brass, is this cause for concern? Photos of this are on my flickr..
- What are the two holes positioned closer to the center on the bottom of a DDC for?

You can basically use any 40 x 20mm fans….Quote:

ben549, you have inspired me. Let me tell you, I had to get creative with the dremel. Worked out great though. Thanks for the inspiration!

I’m finally able to post some updates. There was a mild storm and I lost cable access and it took Comcast two whole days to get it back up and running.
As requested by disruptfam all the shots were taken with the Nikon D300………like I would shoot them with anything else lol!

thats one massive build, alot of stuff going on and alot of $$$! nice shoots with the D300..
my D60 should be here next week.. damn slow shippers! :mad:
great build, what is the dual blower gonna be for? Also great mod for the DDC, how much of a diff does having a fan on there make though, I've heard it overheating but I'm not sure if I wanna cut up my xspc ddc stand. Ah if only they had a D60 in stock back when I was picking out my DSLR, I ended up with a XTi, cuz I hated the grip for the D40x, and got a EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS to go with it, not a bad lens, still waiting to save up enough to grab a EF 17-40mm f/4L Wide Angle.
I’m just one of those people that always has to be doing something….ALWAYS!!! Right now while I’m waiting for the 790i FTW or something else new I need stay occupied.Quote:

The blower will be attached to the mesh bottom of the case right under the HDD rack. The theory for this setup is that not only will it provide better airflow through the HDD rack but it will also move the air to the sides making the HDD fans and its self inaudible.Quote:

As far as lenses go, the lens I’ve been shooting with is a 55mm F1.8 and as you can see its amazing especially when it only costs ~$140! If you’re looking for lenses, a fixed lens will almost always be sharper than a zoom lens. Also F4 is very slow; a faster lens would be much more versatile and personally I’ve had better luck with faster exposures; even my Nikon 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G VR Zoom Lens is a bit faster and having VR is like CHEATING! :D
nice and clean work keep it up :up:
i <3 love that camera!!!
if only i could afford one!
nice update mate coming along nicely
I assume that you're using the EnzoTech SLF-1 as you list it in the first message but I don't see it in your signature. Did you try to come up with a waterblock solution for the 780i SB before you installed the EnzoTech SLF-1? Do you think the EnzoTech SLF-1 is a better solution than the Evercool fan or don't know?
Are there compatibility issues using the EK-FC9800GX2 wateblock and either of the 780i NB or SB? I wish my system looked half as good as yours.
i ordered though amazon, the actually company name is 17th street photoQuote:

plus 2 dvd for noobs :up:
the lens alone total to $189.95 + $229.95 = $420 and
depending on where you shop the body is around $550+
so i say fair deal :up:
now a comment on your build
as of now, its hard to visualize the build as a whole, but from what i see
im sure results will be stunning, do you have a full case shot in its current
state? everything looks so busy, but the D300 makes it look beautiful :p:
keep it up
cheers
