Water Cooled Case Gallery

[disruptfam]

sik newbie!!! another aussie up on here woohoo!!!

[CyberDruid]

Scratchbuilt is th3 b3st!

Did a little more on the Kandalf today...

Still a ways to go...


Needed to make a pump bracket.





The Oly needed some serious cable management...

Hard to believe but yes the door did close over that mess...



The biggest challenge is the crazy door/reservoir with half inch ID tubing...the tubing wants to drag against itself r anything it can...


Still have a piece of acrylic mirror to run in there to spiff up the bay side and make the loogo stand out..tomorrow.


I have not used the XSPC radiator so I sure hope it's worth the trouble.

[Looker]

ASUS P5ND2 SLI Mobo
Intel P4 D 930 CPU
eVGA nVidia GeForce 7900GT KO

With the following cooling components:

MCR320 Rad w/3 YL medium speed 120's
DDC3.2 w/Petra's top
D-Tek FuZion CPU block
MCW60 GPU block
Tygon 3603 1/2" ID 3/4" OD Tubing
EK 150 Res:





Lights out w/UV bulbs:





Darker image but shows the UV fluid slightly better

[CyberDruid]

Gotta love a case jam packed with LC gear

[TRG]

Just getting started on this Kandalf LCS rebuild...XSPC 320 rad, MCP 655 Pump. FuZion WB...And Tribal Res...the green tubes are for fill/bleed.

That looks AWESOME. Was thinking of something like that some time ago, but it isn't the best practical solution..But if you don't move your PC often - GO FOR IT!

[n3wbi3]

LOL go aussie POWER

It's for a client

I prefer a more stealthy approach to LC...

But the Tribal Res is fun to look at

[egraphix]

Mine so far.




still need to tidy up cabling a little more-especially pump side..

specs:
Lian li pc343b case + home made side panels.
Q6600 o/c to 3.0ghz for now. i dont even see the need for more power atm
bfg 8800ggtx oc 630/2000mhz
gigabyte Dq6 mobo.
120.3 rad (on blue loop)+120.2 rad (on yellow loop-yes its yellow!! not green.)
4gb corsair dominator mem.
150gb raptor+hdd water block
2.5tb of additional storage (yellor and green sata conenctions :P in the pic)
a bfg physx card which was DOA...hmm.. will get a refund and use money towards something else.

will post more pics soon... what you dont see is the alphacool lcd which is mounted topside (since my case sits on the floor) its easier for me to read the panel.

I LOVE the two pumps and different colored fluid!!! A couple suggestions from a modding n00b (so take them with a few grains of salt):

1. Paint your PSU or get an acrylic PSU cover from Performance PCs.
2. Cool Sleeve the ENTIRE set of tubing or sleeve none. You can use metal inner sleeves if you need to for the tight bends. Just make the appearance consistent.
3. Toss some blue Yate Loons on that rad for color.

[CyberDruid]

Wish I could test run the loop--waiting on fans for the rad.

[TheSamurai]

is it glass?

[DarthBeavis]

cyber can we see the mirrors on teh ceiling over your bed?

[CyberDruid]

is it glass?

1/8" acrylic secured with industrial velcro

Wow what a grim thought...

[TheSamurai]

for some reason i didn't think the mirror acrylic would look that nice!

[CyberDruid]

I think it might be a bit much--gonna wait and see what the client thinks. I like the case floor though--it's about the only time you get to see the underside of your X-Fi

[TheSamurai]

yeah, the floor panel looks awesome. the side part, for me, is a bit much.

[CyberDruid]

Luckily it is easy to change out. In a mirrored case you better not have any ugly spots

so you build these for people?

[hecktic]

[kinghong1970]

This is just a question out of curiosity, when did this become a work log thread?

[JonKbmw]

Where do you get the mirrored acrylic?

[karateo]

That is the client..not me in the link. That's me in the avatar

"Just out of curiousity" since when is it mandatory for every one of your posts to either have something mean or sarcastic to say? Where are your builds? Where are your "credentials?" Is it really annoying to you to see more than one post about the same rig? Many of my build logs are longer than this whole thread. Posting a couple of shots of the same rig in different states is hardly a worklog.

You like to cloak your venom in benign "questions" and "advice" but it barely conceals your nature.

You got a problem with me? PM me I'll see what I can do to work it out.

You want to troll me? That could be a problem.

[CyberDruid]

Where do you get the mirrored acrylic?

US Plastics. They ship super fast. Great prices.
