So I finally felt that there had been enough progress to post this on here.
It all started by me building the V1000, and when the parts for it became more and more exotic the waiting time grew and grew.
The problem was that I was ready to start building, mentally.
This project is separate from Crystal Clear, and it will NOT affect it in any way.
I managed to keep my cool for a good 6 months but around now I snapped.
Since time was the only issue for not completing the V1000 right now and parts are getting more and more rare and exotic, and my old computer started dying I went and ordered some parts.
It started with a couple of sticks of Corsair Dominator 1600mhz ddr3's and a Corsair X32 SSD.
Before I knew it I had a complete i5 setup lying on the shelves, and no CPU cooler that would fit.
I did what any normal person would do, I took my LT and tested if it'd fit, and it did perfectly, this was the step in to LC yet again.
Anyway, this is my story about the (split) first time doing LC, and I try to keep it as serious as possible so I hope you'll enjoy the ride.
And as it goes with names, because I like names, this one is called Simplicity.
Some specs on the system:
- Intel i5 750
- MSI P55M-GD45
- Corsair Dominator 1600mhz
- ATi 5770 (GTX260 borrowed from Crystal Clear)
- Corsair X32 SSD
- OCZ modXstream 500w w/ white connectors, sleeved with MDPC-X white, and a touch of Grande Bleu.
LC:
- EK Supreme LT
- EK FC 5770 (EK FC GTX 280 w/ EK-FC280 GTX RAM Backplate)
- EK Multioption RES 150 Rev.2
- EK ANTI-Cyclone
- EK DDC X-Top Laing DDC V.2
- Feser Xchanger 120.2
- Laing DDC-Pump 12V DDC-1Plus (18w/620lph)
- Masterkleer tubing with Feser compression fittings.
Ideas and help, as well as anything else you'd like to say, is greatly appreciated.
If there's anything you like or dislike, don't hesitate to inform me.
Thanks,
