Crazy VapoChill mod (56k beware)

**CrashOv3r1De** · 11-22-2003, 11:36 AM

Take a look at my friends mod.

**berkut** · 11-22-2003, 11:44 AM

exept the amount of work - im not impressed, i dont like the vapo case and this kind of mods...

**CrashOv3r1De** · 11-22-2003, 11:51 AM

i like it. i have tried both prommy and vapo and i like the vapo better because you get close to the same cooling, vapo is lighter/quiter, and there is only 100-200mhz overclocking difference and i am not benching 24/7 so the vapo is more appeaqling to me. Also the stock prommy case is butt ugly but the stock vapo case is rather nice (my opinion).

vapo pe w/ r404a mod will give close to mahch i temps. temps dont really matter that much as long as their low and as long as you can achieve the overclock you want.

the mod is pretty good but i seen better. ai got myself a new vapo pe fir $400 shipped instead of a mach i for $580 shipped because it would take another $300 just to make the mach i look tolerable to me.

Im kind of old school... i prefer simple looking rigs, only raw power, i dont like :banana::banana::banana:ot stuff like neons, thermaltake glowing fans and other stuff like that...... reminds me of a type of person called "DRES" in Poland...

Damn your friend must have had allot of work with that one!

I think thats a little too flashy for me,

I would like a nicely put together custom case, with lights and stuff but my PC is allways too messy to get it together.

Looks like he has done a good job, it looks very neatly done especially the paint.

I agree with crash about weight, this i my biggest problem with my current prommy, watercooled system as its so heavy and hard to transport... I had to build a silent aircooled lan box

**Karnivore** · 11-22-2003, 12:50 PM

He did a very nice job on it, however I agree, overkill....

**Slickthellama** · 11-22-2003, 01:55 PM

/me hates the vapochill kase, its all fat. It looks hella bad i'm afraid.

**dqniel** · 11-22-2003, 02:29 PM

Anyway, I also don't like the vapochill case cause it is too bloated looking. Also, it's way to flashy for me cause I like the simple look, with straight edges and designs, no crazy cut designs or rounded edges.

**KAIN** · 11-22-2003, 05:08 PM

That is a pretty amazing mod full stop, I can appreciate that for the work that has gone in and the thought. Also the design works well, all pulls together really nicely!

Also some really nice touches, like the backplane made of carbon and the window mod on the PSU etc. Excellent work.

**KAIN** · 11-22-2003, 05:12 PM

infact keep noticing even more things, like the hub integrated into the case... wow that is some really nice work!

**Holst** · 11-22-2003, 05:16 PM

Whats with the silver ducting above the graphcs card?

Is that just an exhaust from the HDD or does it also cool the back of the GPU/memory?

**hatemi** · 11-22-2003, 05:25 PM

Very impressive vapo. Maeby a bit overkill but still the best looking vapo I`ve seen. I bet my girlfrend wouldnt mind if I got one of those....Im more of a ghetto setup person myself

**ModKid** · 11-22-2003, 05:36 PM

pics are dead

**RuKK** · 11-22-2003, 06:31 PM

Bleh.. besides the pregnant vapo case, its cool but way too cluttered for my taste. I like having space and airflow and not so many lights and grilles and stuff :X

A little blue glow from some case fans is fine with me but more just ends up being a little.. how shall I say.. ghey? ;x

Anyway, its a nice mod and he's done a nice job. Alot of work

**Poki** · 11-22-2003, 06:57 PM

It's kinda snazzy, no doubt he dumped a load on it and some time. I always thought my motherboard looked fine laying on a piece of plywood though... To each their own i guess.

**RuKK** · 11-22-2003, 07:04 PM

nothing wrong with plywood, but I really prefer my abit box

**Poki** · 11-22-2003, 07:37 PM

I stopped using the Abit box after it started to calapse. If i get extravagant i may even fab up some stand offs.

**jan** · 11-22-2003, 08:48 PM

i don't like this case. it's a well done job but i don't like modded cases like this.

like berkut said, only raw power is interesting.

**charlie** · 11-22-2003, 11:16 PM

:thumbsup:
I like it...

**berkut** · 11-23-2003, 08:21 AM

Not to mention that a vapo isnt acctually the definition of "power"

right on...I think light fans are dumb, I had a cathode once & it lasted a good four days.

**iboomalot** · 11-23-2003, 03:56 PM

nice looking rig but a bit flashy

I would rather have papst or another silent fan setup other than neon.

otherwise lots of work enjoy your rig.

**CrashOv3r1De** · 11-24-2003, 10:56 AM

Well I would agree its overkill. Im gettign myself a vapo for the reaons. Money is not the issue I can have a mach ii for my cpu and a mach ii for my gpu right now.

Im thinkign of soem vapo mods (besides watercooling)..You guys got any ideas. I was thinking a side window or maybe make alycric sides all around.

**EmineM** · 11-24-2003, 10:58 AM

whats that coolers name lying on the top of the gfx card, cant find it anywhere
