I would just use plain old white heatsink goo... I did on one of my old drives mounted in a heatsink type cooler, it worked perfect and actually cleaned off fairly easily afterwards.Quote:

I've reassembled everything in the cooling chamber and added a few more goodies to make it look clean. I think it will function better and it looks better than my original layout.
What you guys think :rolleyes:
( These are the last two pictures of 12 that was downloaded, but only two pics attached to the thread... I'll try again later. )
I was hoping you didnt give up on this. Good to see youre still at it.
Eagerly awaiting more pics!
Heres the pictures that did not get attached to my post. It will only let me attach five pictures, so guess I need to do multiple posts....sorry.

The last two pictures are in my original post...thats it for now.
droolz :D
Damn looking nice matey.
Ive never seen attention to detail like this. Well done. :clap:
I just spent the last 2 hours reading this post, i couldn't stop. This has to be the most amazing build i have ever seen. The craftsmanship and technology is just amazing, it's so beautiful i can't say enough. I just have to say, you are a master craftsman and Extreme Noob... Top Shelf.
a subscriber too!
thanks for the motivation!
Nice build and good to see your still working on it. I don't quite understand the layout of the MB tray at this time. It was my understanding that the shroud on the right was for the wires.
The wire loom on the top right hand corner is for the wires to enter from the power supply outside the cooling chamber. The wires will be sealed between the double walls of the chamber and the outside cover will add additional seal from the outside. As far as the MB tray layout question....I'm not sure what is not understood. The MB tray will function as any other MB tray in a case.Quote:

Finished brazing the liquid blocks and thought I would share a few pics. :D I need to braze the stainless hose and I will start testing the flow rate and pressure of the CrossFlow blocks.

Those must be heavy. What are you going to do about the flex/hang on the videocards?
Nice looking!
What are the internal designs of the water blocks? What mobo, and cards are you using them on? Have you thought about NB cooling?
The flex lines should help support the blocks. If the weight is still a problem... I will build a bracket for added support.Quote:

wow, very nice build
Bumpers?
nice build..:)
One kick ass sytem and project, glad you doing well, can't wait!!!
WoW man! Goliath rules!
Thanks guys for the compliments. I haven't given up on the build, its just things are going a little slow with fabrication of parts and assembly. I had to change a few more things again :mad: ...but, I knew in the beginning this would not be a easy build. I will update the pics soon....I'm waiting on some material.
Beyond excellent work - you go man! Show us how it's done!! :up:
Absolutely incredible! Keep it up. This is the most impressive build I've ever seen.
Really glad you haven't quit:clap: . one of many reasons i joined this forum was to watch the progress on this project:D . i look foward to seeing more as you move foward:yepp: .
