Mördarverket
a.k.a. Dumbo
Welcome to my worklog.
This is my first post here, and my first worklog, so bear with me.
This project of mine started out with me planning on putting in some watercooling in my current case, a Cosmos 1000. But I didn't really like the options. So I said to hell with it and went down the narrow path of Murdermodding... and ripped out my wallet.
I got my TJ07 back in July so I have already done some bits and pieces, regretted it, done it over again, pondered and tinkered and well moped about. Anyways, yesterday the last major component arrived from B-Ray. I finally decided to ditch my old 4870X2 when I saw the PowerColor LCS HD5870. I placed my order and ten minutes later they called from B-Ray and I thought; their out of stock, but no, they just wanted to make sure that I realised it was made for a liquid cooling setup. Apparently about ten customers had bought it without realising this fact so they called everyone ordering it. So here's the rundown of the hardware stuff:
Computing bits:
- Case: Silverstone TJ07 Black
- PSU: Fractal Design Newton R2 800W
- Processor: Intel Core i7 940 2,93 Ghz

- Reservoir: EK-Multioption RES250 rev. 2
- Tubing: XSPC 7/16" ID - 5/8" OD White Hose
