Careful running your video card without being secured down... that stress from freestanding is not good for the the mobo/card.Quote:

Hey Raxxath, mind posting some pics of the A05 internals? :)
Hey, Bugkalot, what tubing is that?
Looks great +1 to more pics.

yup thats a very good suggestion and the tubing is real nice...Quote:

2. And also, I am using a D-tek cpu block and MCR320 (brass body & tubes) so is it okay just to distilled water + PT Nuke or will I need anti-corrosion protection? What type of mix is the most simple + safe? Distilled water + PT Nuke?
3. What type of tubes do you guys recommend? I am currently using the Masterkleer 7/16" ID.
Here are some pics of my quick build. I am moving out soon so I will rebuild it when I move out and get new tubes.

http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a3...evinx/PC/1.jpg
Any recommandations or tips to help me improve my system?
Looks good, but what's that strange twist in the tubing, rad -> res O_o
Haha, yeah.. I like it. The reason I did that was because I did not want the tubes to rest on top of the other tubes, and it looks bad. I wouldn't think performance would be affected by it.
looks good, just get some neoprene or something under the pump to reduce vibrations to the drive cage..
Few pics of my Thermaltake Armor.
First one is what it used to look like. The rest are current.

@Raxxath: Superb cable management. That's a very thoughtful build.
I like your work ^_^Quote:

You might find that 1/2" ID might give you a better flow rate and subsequently better temperatures but it is best if you read one of the stickied threads on tubing size and the effect on temperature.
Cheers.
So I am about this fire this baby up.
My goals were:
Looks good, great sidewindow appeal but not tacky.
All has to be inside, no external rads.
No wire clutter.
Must run cool and especially quiet, yet allowing for a decent overclock.
the only challenge: How to mount a Thermochill RAD 120.3 into the Lian Li armorsuite without drilling to many 120mm holes into the bottom. I wanted the vertical arrangement to allow the air from the front 3 14cm fans to be utilized.
It is a bit tough to get to the drive bays.....I get there from the front of the case.
See for yourself. Sorry for the wires of the GPU....as I said...not quite finished yet.

Radiator on Fire ;) :D
Damn that rad and the shrouds are just awesome.
What radiator shrouds are those?
thats the Feser ones.
Can we get them separately? Or do they have to be purchased with the radiator? I would love to get 3 for mine.
You can get them separately in the colors gree, blue and red. :)
Looks really nice, I will post some pics very soon too :)
That looks like truck on gta 3 "she's on fire and she's burning" :D: :D : D :D :D

The shourds dont just look good, they result in a better airflow => 1-2C better temps :)
Nice pictures! :toast:

How it looked when it was nearly finished...
http://img129.imageshack.us/img129/3123/dsc00557iw1.jpg
Scores and details of the rig :
- E6750 @ 3.6GHz (W/C with Swiftech Apogee block - 4GHz has been ran but still tweaking)
- 2x 1GB DDR2 1200mhz running at 1:1
- Asus Maximus Forumla SE (W/C)
- 1x Asus 3870X2 (W/C but not OC'd)
- 2x 160GB Seagate Barracudas (RAID O)
- Windows Vista Ultimate (64bit - think I'll go back to 32bit though - been buggy)
- 2x 240mm Swiftech starter kit rads
- Thermaltake Thunderblades reduced to near silence
Temps run around 40c when doing that and 30-32c in Windows with the usual background palava of programs confirmed with Probe II.
Should get some better pictures to be honest :(
Probably going to change case though. There just isn't enough room in there any more and this PC carries alot of painful memories - it was what got me through the roughest of past times.
~Bex
seen other people on the forums that got red tubing/water and that black thingy to do that the tubing not get kinky :S, hmm where is my english can't write anymore :P

PSU is weatherstripped to isolate from the inside (air drawn from outside goes right back out)
Rad is weatherstripped to force the hot air down through vent holes
80-120m adapter on another Yate-Loon forces the intake air towards the rad intake (temporary until I make a better duct)
http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3234/...122a4aa3c5.jpg
Temporary 120mm until I get Kama-bay or Lian-Li bay,
and the older style 80mm Li-Li bay for my HDD(s)
I have a small concern that the res is too low, and I definitely need taller feet/Li-Li replacement wheels to remove some restriction on the rad exhaust. But, so far it's working great. I haven't been able to get it above 56*C (even at 87*F ambient), but I still need a fan controller to lower the noise.
I just figured out where to put this:

I'll need to take these again when I clean up the HTPC, and I'll open my laptop & lay out the Axim just to make the family complete. :D
(The SonataIII is actually empty - for a few more days - it's going to be a sound editing machine for my brother-in-law.)
FYI. get the lian li one. The kama bay has terrible... ehm whats the word, fit form... err something. Every case ive tried mine on leaves gaps one both sides of it.
@Plastek: cool!!
what tubing is that leo???
nice job plastek

I was originally thinking too using blue tubing for cooled water and tubing color eventually turning red just before radiator.
Nah, I said. So right now I'm going for clear tubing, badass car-rad and turning my Sonata II totally black with red lights. I'll post a worklog or something later this week, and I'll finally add my baby to this sweet WC case gallery.
And leo_bsb, that orange tubing looks good for me, alltough you'll have to go orange with the rest of your setup too, because those tubings are quite domating. And change that coloured liquid :confused:
What`s with all those caps? Low Esr type ?

Holy cow, i guess ill be the first to compliment the tubing and ask, what isit??
yeah, the orange+silver looks good!
It´s the feser 3/8" tubing - available @frozencpu in the us
what fan is that @ the back bundy?
^^ It looks like an Xigmatek XLF-F1253.
If it is, I am so getting it for my front intake fan. :)
yeah, right -> its an Xigmatek ! :)
http://www.abload.de/img/img_3092d3u.jpg
...now with some extra Leds :D
Wow :eek:
I'm liking those tubes!
Wait so it's fesser orange tubing? or is it red but camera makes it look like that? Because I don't think fesser orange tubing exists
bundy...you could land a 747 with those white LED's!
It does, but only in 3/8" ID from the Feser page.Quote:
