Turtletraxs' "Go Broke" TJ-07 Dual Loop (pic update finally!)
Hey fellas.
This is my first buildlog, but I felt I should start one even if it not from the start.
Allot of the parts that I have are from my old machine that I had that consisted of a HE 120.3 internal in a Armor (I know I know:down:) with a PA 120.2 hanging off the back. I had 2xPetra topped DDC-2's and MC-Res Micro's. For Waterblocks I had a D-Tek Fuzion V1 and a EK 8800GTX FC block. The HE ran on the Proc and the PA the 8800GTX. I had no chipset or mosfet blocks and will not on this build either.
I hated the case so much, for so long that I finally snapped and got a TJ-07 on a good sale, but it did not come with a window, and now I regret that, so I think I will source a window side out (most likely direct from Silverstone).
So what I have hardware wise from the old build first.
DFI P35-T2R
G.Skill 2x2 PC2-8000
Auzen Prelude or Xonar D2X (not sure which one to use, the Plelude is a thinner card widthwise, might make tubing easier)
Raptor 150
Plextor DVD-RW

Not much else to show right now. I have most everything sleeved and have to wait for the fittings to show. I also have to cut the holes for cable management in the mobo tray, but I have cut a slot in the framing of the case so I can get the cables behind the mobo tray. I think I made it too small so may have to open it up more.
I need some ideas from you guys as I go, so expect lots of questions ;)
Thanks and good day!
