Alright, here it comes:

PROJEKT :: CLMEAN-MACHINE

In this thread I'll show you some progress from socket 775 to i7 and some exchange of hardware and style. I would like you all to comment on what I should do better, things I should think of and perhaps also some suggestions on what I should do now to make this rig a real XS system! :clap: I would also like som help and tip about how to set your camera to get that really cool effect some of you have, like Screamer etc. :up: I have an Nikon D40 and I also can use an D300, but it's really to complicated for me. :P

OK, let's begin with what you came to see.

This is how it first looked when I called it a projekt.

http://www.techsweden.org/galleri/bi...sc-0455-t.jpeg
http://www.techsweden.org/galleri/bi...sc-0440-t.jpeg

I got complains about the cable management so I tried some more.
http://www.techsweden.org/galleri/bi...W/t/0-0-t.jpeg
http://www.techsweden.org/galleri/bi...W/t/m-1-t.jpeg

http://www.techsweden.org/galleri/bi...W/t/n-5-t.jpeg

It didn't quite suffice so I tried harder yet, and switch position of the SSD
http://www.techsweden.org/galleri/bi...W/t/z-6-t.jpeg
http://www.techsweden.org/galleri/bi...W/t/i-8-t.jpeg

Moved the Sata cables. (And moved some more cables actually)

Some motherboard cooling pics and some less sexy hose management

http://www.techsweden.org/galleri/bi.../t/h-13-t.jpeg
http://www.techsweden.org/galleri/bi.../t/d-14-t.jpeg

Took myself some time to try harder.
http://www.techsweden.org/galleri/bi.../t/d-11-t.jpeg
http://www.techsweden.org/galleri/bi.../t/x-15-t.jpeg

Got a tip to move the pump to get less hose so I did it.

http://www.techsweden.org/galleri/bi...mg-0152-t.jpeg
http://www.techsweden.org/galleri/bi...mg-0154-t.jpeg

Redid the hose management, a new case-side and the new bezels is on.
http://www.techsweden.org/galleri/bi...sc-0585-t.jpeg

http://www.techsweden.org/galleri/bi...sc-0647-t.jpeg

A smal upgrade, painted the case-side and added some noctuas to the specs. Also exchanged the wheels for some feets. Also bought an HD5870 which is the like second absolutely brand new GPU i've bought since the Nvidia 7950GT. I must say that it were more of an upgrade than I thought! I will buy a new block for the HD5870 to, but there's some other stuff to buy first.

Modding:
To make this thread a little more interesting I'm going to modify this case a bit. I'm going to make room for an 3x120 radiator in the top of the chassi and also exchange the wheels with feets (Already done tho), add plexicovers inside the case to make it shiny (also already done) and make some changes based and inspired of Laine with the 5.25" room.

Something like this: CRED TO Laine FOR THE MODIFICATIONS AND IDEAS FOR THEM

And some reflections in the plexi. I've painted it black on one side and leaved it shiny on the top side resulting in quite a stylish surface. :)

http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x...chine/l-13.jpg

I am thinking of buying the EK motherboard and GPU nickel acetal block. Any thoughts of them? I really like EK's stuff and always used 'em.

Any thoughts on how to manage the hoses when having just the motherboard and CPU and also when I have CPU, motherboard and GPU. With and without an extra loop. Anyone out there using the same or a similiar setup?

I have an excellent idea for this case but no tools to make the parts... but seeing so many people modding this case recently makes me want to just do it.

No idea really, I'm just starting to do my first case mods and my first watercooling project myself. I'll leave big suggestions to the veterans.

Perhaps just the obvious move of grabbing the EK board block, and perhaps neatening up the sleeving at the plugs to get them more even (you've already cut the sleeve lengths but if it's uneven at the PSU end it's not as noticeable at at the plug ends). From what I can see, the aim with sleeving is to have the sleeve finish at the same part of each wire, then use identical lengths of heatshrink to secure each sleeve so each wire looks the same.

nice V1000b you've got there, especially the latest revision, that one looks really neat, mine has also gone through different phases

Wow my hands hurt from looking at your psu, that's amazing.
Who needs a cd drive anyways :)

Did you have to give up your front panel ports, to mount the hdds so close?
or did you mod them, or replace them?
03-23-2010, 03:47 PM

Looks great, one suggestion though. From what I have heard those noctua fans you have on the radiator have pretty bad radiator performance. The fan you have exhausting air on the back would work better on the radiator. Remember, cfm isn't everything
03-23-2010, 04:22 PM
iHannes

I had to sacrifice the front ports in order to use the extra space. Not a great loss actually, never really used em. I'm going to change the fans so that the more powerfull is used on the radiator. But I do use push and pull on the radiator, maybe it's sufficent?
03-23-2010, 06:25 PM

What fittings are those? The 45º do not leak? I'm asking because many people found theirs to leak specially when subject to stress (as the o-ring gets pressure on one side so it leaks on the other...).

Awesome build, BTW :)

Yeah, I had to sacrifice the front panel ports. But it's not that big of a loss for me.

I've thought about that and I'm probably going to swap fans today.

Does not leak for me. I'm not sure what fittings it are. Bought them used. But it's 1/2" id, 3/4" OD.

Looking good! Any change to move the pump to the side so the tube coming from reservoir look straight?

Relativly so actually. The noctua fans does their job.

Some new pics, got my new HX750 from my friend earlier this week. Sleeved with mdpc-x sleeve, thank you Nils! And thank you Sebastian for your hardwork!

Thought I present my first and only sponsor.. Ever! I'm quite proud of myself. ^^, Artur have sponsored me with an Enermax Magma Fan, So i can see if they're a better choice than my noctuas. Probably gonna look better anyways.
http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x...ingstuffse.png

The led sleeve and motherboard block. It's damn sexy! Great work Eddy!
http://www.sweclockers.com/upload/ga...38868-full.jpg

Alright, if someone know or if Eddy himself takes a look in this thread, I have a question about the EK fittings. Are they available? Are they available in the sizes that fits 3/4OD 1/2ID hose? Right now I'm out of cash for this project, used way to much money already on hardware. :P (Ordered an EK cylinder 250 reservoar and some fesser fittings like the one I use right now. Also some 45 degrees connections and black and red hoses) so the fittings and a Nickel/Acetal block or two for my 5870 and another one for upgrade is going to wait, probably for quiet some time. But someday it's probably gonna find it's way to my Clean, Mean-Machine project.

The last pictures, are they any good? Something I should think about? They're minimized quite a bit right now. To fit the forum, but apart from that. Should I use different angels or something? I currently only possess an Nikon D40, probably can borrow my GF's D300 but it's complicated to use. :P

Gonna update with some fresh pictures once the EK res is installed and the new hoses is in place. Until next time!

I'm aiming @ 110% ;) Red coolant is ordered, red hose is ordered, black hose is ordered and an EK 250 reservoar is ordered. Let's see when they come and what will look best! It's easter here and it's like sunday until thuesday in sweden. Great with some time off, tho the mail isn't dillivered either. :(

I've also been sponsored with an Enermax Magma fan from Coolingstuff.se as I stated in my previous post. It's black'n red for those who don't know. ^^, So that's one less noctua in the system.. Now I need three more magmas.. Or actually 6 more since I've have plans for making room for a 3x120 rad in the top. Enermax, if you read this. Send 6 Magma fans to Sweden asap! :D I'm out of cash!

I got plans for the acrylic (plexi) panel by the 5.25". I'm thinking cherryblossom or something instead of Evga. I'm also thinking about making a "shroud" kinda thing for the radiator that's placed in the 5.25" spot. So that it looks more.. Solid (See picture below). What do you guys think of that?

I LOVE the EVGA plate you put on the 5.25" bays!

And the red sleeve is superb :up:

Don't you think the red "CLASSIFIED" cover on the EK block should be standard? :p:

You are like.. The first one who says he likes the evga plate. I'm actually thinking of doing a cherryblossom tree or something instead.

Thank you, It's actually a friend of mine who's done the sleeving. :clap:

It's a nice "feature" atleast. :D I'm glad it's an "addon" and that you don't have to buy it separate.

There's more pictures, but they're frankly to big to post here. I'm probably post the thumbnails if you want to see them. Or you visit this thread, http://www.techsweden.org/forum/view...22779&start=60 it's in swedish so I don't really take it as an competitor of XS.

REMOVED DUE TO BROKEN MIRROR

Am I to use red hosing or should I change to black?

Thank you Coolingstuff.se for the enermax Magma.. Now I just need 8 more and I'm out of funds. :'( I would like to change fittings to matte black Bitspower to. Ey Enermax and Bitspower! Give me some love and I'll spam you all over the net as my sponsor. :clap::rolling:

Wow!! You managed to find a new vintage Lian Li V1000B Plus II.

From the way I look at your rig, there's a lot more watercooling potential. You could add another 120.2 rad on the top to WC your GFX. You could even shift your current rad to the top and get 2 stackable Swiftech 120.2 for 120.6 to cool your CPU, GPU, chipset and mosfet.

I am thinking about cutting up the top and adding an 3x120 as I currently do have a.. What is it called? Rad-Grill for one. Tho I'm not fond of changing the exterior to much, It's a vintage case afterall. ^^,

I'm also thinking of cooling the GPU, tho probably if I manage to get the hold of 1 or 2 more GFX's. I love the stock cooling on this one and it is fairly cool and quiet.

I didn't quite get the last part, probably cause my lack of english skills.. 2 stackable 120.2? So you serialmount them or something? That would be awsome. To bad I'm out of funds, I mean really out of funds (that much that I'm thinking of selling this thing if I can't finish it..) :( I am e-mailing bitspower and enermax about some sponsorship, not sure if that's the right way to do it but hey, atleast I can't get less than a no and If they allow I'll be able to atleast finish it enough. :shrug:

Like I said, lots of cooling potential.

I had lots of headache squeezing 2 x 120.1 and 1 x 120.2 rads in my rig, but I still have a fair bit of space left in the lower deck.

Nice build you got there. Going to be hard to fit my 6 HDDs and my radiator if I'm going to do bout the same as you. But I've been thinking of using an 1x120 rad in the back.

Love the build, I think your cpu tubing is kinked though, may be the lighting but looks kinked in every photo.

Thanks... My current configuration can support only up to 3 HDDs.

You need to ensure there's sufficient clearance from your GFX card to mount a rear 120mm rad.

It is kinked. :( It's a sience to get that exactly right.. I also did the current tubing when you actually shouldn't do anything within your computer. At a LAN, with aprox 4h sleep on 48h. :clap: Didn't manage to get that bend exactly right, tho it's kinked it's actually not restricted in anyway. I'm gonna re do that one when I'm refreshed and when I have sunlight instead of some crappy yellowtinted lamp.

I'm more concern about keeping the system clean than keeping it cool, tho it's actually quite cool. Not going to be able to cool an GFX on top of MB and CPU with current setup tho.

Maybe for the kink use a 90 degree and a 45 degree instead of dual 45s?

Don't like the fesser 90 degree fittings. The only ones I own atm. It also more stylish to use a 45 degree fitting there. Atleast that's what I think.

I've managed to have it like that without having it kinking. But it's a millimetre +/-. Also I'm thinkin that I might need to cut the hoses with a slight angle. I'm going to check into it some more when I have the possibility.

Liking this build. A few comments ...

1) On your CPU tubing - it "might" actually work better to avoid the 45s and just do a straight up and down loop - would probably work with smaller tubing, but maybe not the 3/4" OD you are using. Obviously, you can solve this if you water cool the GPU.

2) I like the red tubing - black might not stand out enough (but sure it would look good).

3) I like the idea of the EVGA plate - but it would look better if the letters were cut out more precisely.

Nice Job - this is my favorite case.

1. The tubing lenght need to be exactly right for it not to kink. I have to use 45s on the CPU block, and I actually like how it looks with 45s all over. I'm going to work something out. ^^

2. You don't think it's a little to much red in case with red hoses? I'm not sure yet what I think about it.

3. It totally would. But it's just there to show the idea of the 5.25" plate. Probably going to make something more artistic instead of doing free marketing for evga. ^^,

Gotcha, iHannes - and, I agree - no since in doing free marketing for others ;) It is a great idea, though.

I don't think the red tubing is too much. I think it stands out against the black case. And, I forgot to mention - the Magma fan looks perfect.

Curious if you ever had a TRUE 120 on that motherboard in that case?

I have the same case but with EVGA x58 LE motherboard and TRUE won't fit vertically by just a bit.

It appears that on the x58 Classified version the CPU socket might be slightly higher (when inverted)?

I like the red tubing actually, which I usually don't like red colored tubing, but it seems to go great with your build.

I do agree with swapping out the EVGA panel, I don't mind advertising, especially for EVGA, but the lettering just throws off the look.

I use brushed aluminum when I want to cover up bay areas like that, it would go well with your Lian Li as well, since they use the best brushed aluminum for their cases.

You can get aluminum sheet for really cheap from http://www.diamondlifegear.com/brushedaluminum.htm.

You'll have to brush it yourself with sand paper(which is fairly easy, I do it all the time), but I think it would look very good as your 5.25 bay panel.

As for the kink, keep testing the lengths, but if you want some help, PM Malik, he's the man when it comes to short tube bends.

If you like the red tubing in my build when you usually don't then it's a fact. Red tubing works with my rig! :up:

I could probably get aluminium sheets from somewhere in sweden to. Tho I lack the skills and tools to work with any material. But I guess I have to learn it some day if I'm gonna impress anyone in this forum. ^^, It would also probably look darn nice! In fact it would look really awesome.

I'll manage to fix the kink myself, tho Malik is really good and it shows.

Seems like I've some trouble with the host of my pictures so I repost some of them that I've have with an other host. So here's some pictures from before:

Now I'm beginning to get somewhere in this project and once again I'm upgrading some hardware. Here's I'm putting an EK Classified fullcover motherboard block on my newly purchased Evga Classified 760. I were @ my friends house while doing this. Mainly because I'm usually there and he also got the main tools for working with a PC and also a steadier hand then me. So he's been a great asset while building this Rig. I myself suffers from some kind of extreme-oldman shaky hands syndrome (Not stated by a doctor tho).

And this is the result of 5000$ but I'm not finished quite yet.

I've got a fan from a swedish LC supplier because he thought I should get rid of the noctua to follow the color-scheme. He was right. Exhaust fan sponsored by Coolingstuff.se

http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x...nesTD/12-1.jpg
http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x...nesTD/13-1.jpg

HDD's moved 1-2 inches to the front of the case to fit an HX750. Made possible by mounting the frontfan between the black exterior of the case and the silver internal.

http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x55/hannesTD/4-2.jpg

The EK multioption 250 Reservoar mounted ontop of my Laing DDC-1t 18w. Fits because it's upside down which makes it possible to have the intake on the side of the reservoar while still having it in the top of it. Resulting in what I think a much cleaner finish and hosing. It's almost completely hidden but it's nice to know it's done correctly and clean.

http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x...nesTD/20-1.jpg
http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x...nesTD/17-1.jpg

I got some plans that need to be set in motion. For starters I'm going to powdercoat the whole case, internal and external with a matte black finish. I'm also thinking of ditching the plexi and run with aluminumplates instead for the bottom and 5.25". And also make some kind of shroud for the radiatorfans so it doesnt look so empty inside the 5.25". Kinda hard to explain and I've never used any sketchup software.

In the next update you'll see some upclose pictures of a total of 9 Enermax Magmas as I change fans from noctua to Enermax Magma. Thank you Enermax for sponsoring me with 8 Enermax Magmas!

The build is almost done. All that's missing is some modding of the 5.25" bay, some more plexiplate with maybe a cherryblossom thingy on and mayyybe a 3x120 radiatorgrill in the top. But that's only if I'm upgrading with another one or two ATI 5870 and get those watercooled.

Thank you Enermax for your sponsorship.

Hi again XS! Got some updates to share with yall! I've been on LAN for the past 4 days with about 1100 other crasy swedes and there where a "Pimp my computer" competition which I with this build won. So I like to share some pics of the prize and also my progress on my phototechnics. I've also gotten a software which can read raw image files. Yey, no more .Jpeg! :lol:

Anyways, here's the prize:

The CM ATCS 840 and CM Silent Pro M 850w is the price and the LiLi 1000 is the case I use.

I've used primochill ID 1/2" OD 3/4". It feels kind of orange at times. Probably because it's UV reactive.
