my fascination is combining extreme cooling with coustom built, non traditional style cases.
here is my setup that i build last summer
this is my "crystal shanty" mk1 (named because of huge size) , and mk2 is on the drawing boards.
this case is made of acrylic and includes a 5,000btu water chiller in the bottom half, while the computer sits on top. the resevoir is about 1.5 gallons and is also made of acrylic. i see water temps of around -8C to -12Cbut could be better but my cap tube is way too short i think, and im using crappy refrigerant charge. my cpu and nb are being cooled in this picture but i removed the nb block due to flow drop.
mk2 will include a homebrew direct die system and be much smaller than mk1 (a huge beast) and will be completed this summer.

Ellsworth, Awesome job you've done there! Welcome to Xtreme!
I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work
Ok! here's my picked-up work space and system...It's nothing compared to the awesome ingenuity of other members....it is neat, though! :pOriginally posted by Hobocrow
LOL, Buddy! I hear you, I've been married to this woman all my adult life, well 28 years anyway.. You know what they say, the 3rd time is a charm.
BTW. I think your work area is very logical in a "helter-skelter, beatles" sort of way! It's beautiful!
Great thread with even better pictures!!!
I'm still around, just not posting much since I have been a bit lazy with computer stuff lately. I basically have all my rigs set for under 140MHz FSB and on auto-pilot Folding.Originally posted by zakelwe
I would hazard a guess at Jeff, or he did have when he used to visit, haven't seen him around for a time. He's pretty high up the pi-fast times and was just getting into video card overclocking / 3dmark when last here.
thanks for the kind wordsOriginally posted by Royal Oaks
That is a killer rig Ellsworth). as soon as i get back home in mid may i will start my new project and use my waterchiller to cool vid card and nb and use direct die phase change on my cpu. when i built my system last summer i didnt have a good chip to oc with, so i never really got any good numbers out of it.
right now im running:
epox 8rda vdd modded
swiftech big and loud heatsink
2100+ tbred B @ (215 x 11 for everyday use)
9500np -> 9700
etc.
its hard to oc with no ac!!!
anyways...awesome forums. seems like all of the [H] migrated over here hehe.

don't underestimate that Pic, I see them skeleton computers, and little signs of modding.
