Liquid Cooling Case Gallery

[Pashtet]

Finished mine case. Just wanted to share it with you









PS. Don't use cheap PVC tubing for $0.5 per meter. It gets "dirty" very quickly

[shazza]

Beautiful system - wiretap - thanks for fixin' your pics


Love your cardboard case, pashtet - a bit of blue tubing would set it off nicely (although I like it as is).

[gmat]

The V351 is a beauty !

And that cardboard setup reminds somehow of another mini system which has the same kind of octogonal shape...

@ shazza
maybe i'll get some blue dye just to match the color scheme

wiretap, I was wondering what kind of temps you're getting with that magicool rad on the 920 .

[wiretap]

Temps are decent. Idle, I'm sitting at ~40C with ~55C core temps. Under full load I'm seeing ~55C with ~80C core temps. But it cools down quickly after a stress run. This is at 4GHz @ 1.35v. I haven't played with my overclock much, but I can probably back down on the voltage a bit to get slightly better temps. The i7 throws off quite a bit of heat. I had to use the Magicool radiator because it's slim to fit in the original place of the 120mm fans, and it allows the 5870 to fit in there depth-wise. Combined with the Noctua fans, it just has enough cooling capacity for my needs, but does run a bit on the warm side. Overall, I think it turned out ok. If I had just an inch more room in the front of the case, it would be perfect, but obviously Lian-Li never intended for this case to have water cooling shoved into it.

[Alexandr0s]

Well, you did an amazing job fitting it there . I'm not sure how much room you have left, but the MCR220 is only 4mm thicker, and it performs a bit better than the Magicool slim:

Also, you might want to look into Gentle Typhoons if you want silent performance, or Panaflos, San Aces or Deltas if you just want pure performance.

[wiretap]

Thanks. The MCR220 *might* fit. With the bracket installed, there's not much room at all left. I didn't want to chance it when I ordered, lol. I thought about un-riveting everything and just making a whole custom interior, but I don't have a lot of the tools (or the time) to do that. I'm working and going to college full time and it leaves little room for play unfortunately.

here's mine

when mine is finished I'll post pics of it.

so many good systems on here haha

Here's a few pics of mine, not completely finished yet :P


Trying to make a custom shroud for the cosmos, need it custom CNC'd and designed to include another 3 x 5.25 bays :P not gonna be cheap.

Temporary solution :P







i7 940 @ 4 full load, Apogee XT, EK DCP 2.2, Koolance quad high flow rad, cooler master 120mm 90cmf fans on 5v) 42C, 26c ambient.

5870 stock, full load fans 5v, EK5870 block, EK DCP 2.2, swiftech 240mm rad 42C

[Demo]

The Coolermaster fans seems to be popular wit the RADS, are they that good ?

I was going to ask the same thing... i was looking at the red ones. how are they?

[hale88]

I was going to ask the same thing... i was looking at the red ones. how are they?

I dont know about other ppl but It keeps both and GPU at ~ 34C - 40C on idle and around ~50C on load for straight 5 hrs folding. CPU around ~40 C idle and 50-60CC on overclock @ 4.2 on a single FeserOne triple fans Rad.

This fans pull some decent air, cheap, quite and cool look LEDs too

nice lc

[Laine]

Thanks all!

Laine,

How can you fix the GPU card?

Show photo details please..

It will be fixed with a small lexan rod in rev. 2.

@Laine : More photos

I'm building a second floor for the PSU and HDD's so I'll probably show rev.2 in the next day or two.

The 5870s wc blocks are on their way...

My humble addition to this thread. Lots of awesome rigs here.

@-typhoon-

what's your CPU clock and idle/max temps?

[individual]

The Coolermaster fans seems to be popular wit the RADS, are they that good ?

They put out 89CFM at 23dB (their 90cfm 19dB claim isn't true, its 46cfm 19dB)

But yes, they are extremely quiet, i cannot hear them above my pump, which is an EK DCP 2.2 which is VERY quiet.

and most other fans i've compared them to don't even come close, or cost twice as much. you can pick them up for about 12-15 bucks.

here is mine - updated

Really beautifull setup jacek Nice cable management aswell!
