    Hi there, nice to see another A05-B owner with a triple rad inside I think you made better use of space than I did, but oh well, I had fun doing mine so can't complain.

    sick impressive! One question though, how the h*ll do you find anything on that screen of yours? You must have had 200 icons. . .

    some updated piccys ,

    Things done

    -Clearflex has been replaced with tygon r-3603 due to the clearflex misting up and generly being rather unflexable

    -addition of a matrix orbital

    - Heatsinks Repainted so they all match

    - wiring redone

    Rather too many than too few.
    Shows it's used to do things with. Not just an end in itself.
    Nice result.

    I'm still blown away by this build. The fact that you got a PA120.3 in that tight space is inspiring.
    Whose fanguard is that? And do you really need 16 socket heads to hold the rad up, or is 8 of them for the fans? What dimension's are you using for the screws?? M4 x8mm or 10mm???
    Last noob question if you don't mind; what good is the orbital for? Or is it just a little bling?

    Its actually a Black Ice GT not a PA. If he got a PA in a case that like, it would be amazing.

    Fan grill is a aquacomputer tripple fan guard with the holes enlarged to match the black ice rad, as for the bolts, 4 hold the grill to the case the other 12 hold the rad to the grill its not going to move anyware :P. the bolts are allen head m4x8's but they have all be dremeled down to about 4mm so they dont puncture the veins on the rad. as for the matrix orbital was just a bit of bling to add some colour to the front and its good to see what songs playing whilst im gaming

    It is a black ice gt crossflow 360, there is no reason why you coulnt fit a pa in but you would loose the dvd-rw which i realy dint want to do.

    What kind of paint do you use to spray the heatsinks. Does it have to be heat resistant ?
