I was wondering why you don't put copper pipes for sli connections and for connections in the bottom of your case?

I was wondering why you don't put copper pipes for sli connections and for connections in the bottom of your case?

For the Sli connections will bring some nice color to it because the cooling water will be blue

i don't use copper pipes in the button because the pump gives a small vibration when it is on and i don't want it to go true my hole case

Update 13

After long days of filling and sanding the body is ready for paint. I only have to do the sidepanels now and then it can go to the painter.
Last week i also received my new Motherboard Gigabyte P67-A UD5 B3 version
So i installed it with he 2 HD 6970 so i can finish my loop.
And i finished my pump also with the stand and the flow meter.

But first the Case
With my previous Project Umbrella i had to make some holes in the bottom of the case for the drain and some mounting holes.

These are all gone now


Removed all the scratches that i made on the top case




After all the sanding it was time to put the case in to the shower to wash all the dirt off

The pump
Because the i had to turn the pump to put it on th stand i couldnt reach the the bottom to adjust the speed of the pump.
I had to make something so i could still do it. without moving the pump
Drill a hole



Locktide on the screw so it wont move around

Also finished up the stand of the pump.



Like this i can still reach it without moving the pump around

Replaced the power connector so i can plug it directly in to the PSU


Because i couldn't find any white housing for the flow meter i decided to make it white my self




The Motherboard
Installed it on the tray with the HD 6970



Completed a other piece of the loop from CPU to GPU




Tray in the case





I only have to make the connection between the midplate and CPU and then is the loop completed then i can start the sanding and polishing of the pipes

WooW god of Case modding !!!
use of Micro LED white & blue in chassis Body.

[Snelleedie]

Thanks and thanks for the tip but i probably use 2 leds only and they will come in both reservoirs. And maybe some SMD leds on the plexi of the GPU's but that is not sure yet ^^

[-Whiteroom-]

Looks great!

[Annirak]

What fittings are you using to attach the pipes? I've only seen pipe compression fittings from koolance, but yours look like bitspower.

They're the Bitspower ones that are used to fit the Crystal Links. Like between the GPU.

If I'm not wrong

your right Guilleguillaume

Sorry XC but the pipes will get a coat of nickel. I know they look great like this but they will look even better with nickel around them ^^

^While i am at it i will show u the final pictures of the loop.
I finished the copper pipe loop + all the pipes are prepared to get a nice shiny coat of nickel around them :p





And a picture for the Highflow case badge contest ^^

The copper is outstanding! Great job all around.

[audioave10]

Those pipes do look great...I guess the nickel coating will look great too.

[miptzi]

I'm ready to die now.....

I just needed to see this first.....

[LeandroJVarini]

very beautiful work

[Serpentarius]

I got an idea with the copper pipes ..... acid etching .... it'll be gorgeous with some marking ... preferably tribal?

Looks like a nice idea but don't think it will fit with the rest maybe in a other build ^^

What holds the tube in the fitting? The weight of the tubing + water wont affect how well the fitting "holds" the tube?

While pipe from gpu blocks till cpu WB looks nice .. why not change it to shorter one that comes from below of gpu waterblocks? This way you'll eliminate top 180degree fitting combo, by what flow restriction should drop.

[hello im sean]

I thought the copper looked stupid, and then you polished it. Now i want to get some good pipe benders

2rubber sealing that are in the fittings hold the pipes
Atm there are no problems with it but i will keep u guys up to date when i start to fill up the loop :p

Have bin thinking about it but for that i need to use allot more fittings to get the pipe at a good position. Plus i kinda like how it is now ^^
