    Project: Fire Opal

    Okay, first read http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=121658 so you understand everything.

    Okay, here are some snaps of the hddblock, oww forget the fittings, I will use the coppertubing as fittings to minimize restriction. I know this design is somewhat a flowkiller because all the tight bends, especially the 180 grade bend. So any advice or a totally diffrent concept would be good










    Here is a basic idea for the cpublock. Definitely not a killer block. I got access to some cnc machines but they are pretty much limited to making channels, and not very small either, so the concept is based on those machines. I know two outlets is unnecessary but hey it looks good








    I will keep editing this post with updates

    if that still in a sketchpad you might want to consider moving the HDs beside the optical drive/s, then raising that PSU higher to have more clearance for mounting cpu block. i wonder if a 120.3 type radiator would fit there in front...

    (and probably the usual comment of no condenser style radiator for watercooling...)

    Thank you Grinch

    @ septim: Hmm, I dont think I need to do that. I figured that some of my dimensions is a bit off, so I think I can make about 4-5 cm more room above the CPU. It should be enough to mount it without to tight bends. If you come up with a great idea how to fitt a 120.3 there I would be your slave forever If not, i will stick with a PA 120.2 it should do the work.


    Next: Uploading blocks, but sadly not the .skp files, I dont have anymore space on my crapy host (max 22mb). You can still get that hdd skp throu the project skp in the main topic
