Great job all round there mate
But I bet you're gonna have a hard time even changing your HDD cause it seems like everything is all tied up together

Nevertheless.....Great build

Ghost.. Can you tell me about your fan controller.. which one did you buy and where and how did you mount it?

Thanks

[Maku1986]

OMG!!! O.O It's one of the best TJ07 builds ever!! Just astonishing MDPC for sure

Don't you think about window?

[Ghost326267]

What size hole needs to be drilled for these?

20mm if I remember correctly

Edit: Yeah 20mm - just found my planning book

Great build!

Seeing the powdercoated parts of the TJ-07 and the two rads in the basement brings back old memories...

The fan controller is a Zalman MFC-1, repainted and with the LED's shorted out. Controls the 5 Fans in the lower section and also powers the lighting and murdermod logo. This is how it looked originally:

Think its been discontinued a long time now but there might be some on the 'bay. I drilled 4 mounting holes above the top outer bay slot, as its only a few cm deep the curve on the top of the case doesn't effect it. Also there's plenty of room in there to hide the cables.
You can see the mounting holes in this pic:

Thanks , I'm not sure its that good I kinda like just having the top to view into it, the cathode lights the top well. I don't bother screwing up that side panel so I can just pull the side off to look at it. Makes the whole case look a little more sleek I think.

Great build!

Thanks, yeah I've been planning a build in a TJ-07 for ages and after seeing the murdermods builds others had done I knew it was the case for me.

That's a nice clean build. I love the tubing and the fittings. I think, that's what I'll use for my build.

hey ghost, great build! I was wondering how much was the powdercoating for all those parts?

also what are those scythe blocks called for the hard drives?

The powdercoating was £40 from my local paintshop.

Scythe blocks are HIMURO got them from here:

Nice build, very clean, and good job on squeezing everything in.

I've been wanting save space and clear out my dual bay res for a while. I thought about getting the ddc+xspc res top, but it means I need to get rid of my D5 =(, but after I saw your res+d5 combo you saved me! That was very clever what you did d5+ek+res. So is that an EK res 250 you used and what male to male fitting is that?

I used this for connecting the pump to the res

It works well just gotta watch the wirlpool going if there's to much flow sucking the air straight back into the loop.

Very well done, Ghost. I like the photos of your Mountain Mods build too - but I imagine the TJ-07 fits better if you have limited space.

After running for nearly a year the copper blocks were looking a little dirty so they had a nice lemonade bath.


This was in preparation for the nickel plating I had done. The 4870x2 block didn't come out that well with a few marks over it

Here, what product you use up copper being similar to the nickel?
silver iodide?

Thanks, mountain mods are nice cases but I had done everything I wanted with that case so needed a new challenge. Really liked what you've done with yours

I had the blocks nickel plated:

I didn't do it myself so I'm not sure what the process was for doing it.

how did you mount the floating reservoir to the hard drives? did you have to drill?

[Ghost326267]

Yeah drilled a hole through and bolted in on the other side using the res mounting screw. Needed to be fairly secure to hold the weight of the res full and with a pump attached.

[elbeasto]

Very Nice!

Are the D5's mounted to anything or just resting on the mid plate?

Cheers
