Water Cooled Case Gallery

where is the bottom pump going to go? sitting on top of the fan? huh?

[LockBreaker]

Yes. On the top of the fan. Fan grill you see...

Do you think it can work?

And this was just to illustrate my thoughts. I must try to clean up the two loops of course.

[Aldy402]

the case is just too small for what your trying to do.. trust me
im a previous owner.. either do 1 loop or get the full tower

[LockBreaker]

Okay.

But I'm shure the radiator's will fit, but thats not the biggest problem? Is it?

I can't see the problem, but that's probably just because I am so excited about it.

you might also have a problem fitting the front fan and the rad in the bottom.

Keeping the stock support brace where it was in my 1200, there was about a few millimeters on each side, so basically no room left. If you look back at my case, you'll see what I'm talking about. Also, you have to take into account how long your PSU is going to be.

Loving the red UV plastic.

I like the Rear Fan exposure in this picture, almost synthetic.

My PSU is 15 centimeters long. So I don't think that is going to be a problem. I saw one person that have mounted the same radiator in his case, here in my home country. A MCR-220.

I am going to remove the front fang because I dont need it there anymore.

What do you think of this? Dual loop internally mounted in a Lian Li V1100B.

Do you think it is going to be a tight fit? (Of course tight, but to tight?)

hi there! i was thinking about your set up and tried grabbing a pic of the lian li v11000 case and realised you might not have space for 2 video cards as the top card will be right next to the rad. could be wrong, but am looking at my tj07 and i think it would struggle!

[LockBreaker]

Thanks mate. I really appriciate your comment.

With an MSI MB it should work. But Its possible that I don't innstall two cards before I get a bigger case.

I don't need SLI the first years so...

[matt100]

You've been showing your tubes with red coolant and plexi covered video card for quite some time Bundy. Any full view shots? Any new additions to your system? I'm sure we'd all like to see some changes.

Not a hater, just asking.

must admit I'm curious too, 37 posts and most of them are pretty much the same picture.

Here is my rig finally put together neat as I can

High resolution pictures, but imageshack should resize for your screen




Comments welcome, this is my first water cooled build, and I think I did OK. I am using a MiniNG on the 18W ultra pump, dialing the voltage down a small amount takes the edge off the low bass humm it produces

500x8 E8500, Abit X38, 2x1GB OCZ Titanium and so on.....

Cheers!

[taylormsj]

Looks nice ^^

Im sure you could neaten up those cables some more tho

cable mangement por favor

btw, i have kandalf too, just heavier one, black
and custom cooling ofcourse

[Mickey Padge]

Hehe, I am no neat freak thats for sure

Actually it was worse before, you should have seen it! Now at least the cables go behind the motherboard backplate and are out of the way for the most part. The main thing is that airflow is good, function over form for me!

What else could I do to improve it? The door opens at the front, so the tubing and fan cables to the rad need to be long enough to open and close without issue.

Plus I have a FireDTV DVB-C card, which trails the firewire and aerial cable across the case. It's not that bad is it?!

My workstation rig... some old tech in here here... but nonetheless, it serves it purpose well..

Specs:
Xeon 3040 1.83 @ 2.8ghz stock vcore
2gb 667 kingston valueram at 800mhz
Geforce 6600
Gigabyte p965 DQ6
verudium powerlite 430w
250 gb hdd - more to be added
Optical drive to be added... lol..

Wc system: TT bigwater 735, + mp-1 aqua extreme gpu block, TT Aquabay with flowmeter, TT water temperature probe, PC ICE UV red (not a big fan of tt stuff but hey, this set was going real cheap... )

[LockBreaker]

Nashaz: I think your rig looks sweet. Like the colour of your water.

Regarding my build. Should i try to put the two radiators in one loop then? But then i would need a stronger pump, an MCP-655 should do it. But i'm worried about the space. It's fairly larger then the MCP-355 with Petras top.

What do you think?

[Nashaz]

thanks m8..

as for your rig, i feel that mounting that many rads in a mid tower is abit too tight... just wondering, have u considered the pcA71b?... or are u more into a silent solution?...

It is still doable in my opinion, that that it will be really tough to get it up and maintain it...

but i think the mosfet blocks and the nb/sb blocks are not necessary... reduces tubing clutter and u can keep the current config and placement...

sweet white rig!... got more pics of the inside?...

Meh, showing Tt, Koolance around here is akin to walking into a hibernating bears den and then poking said bear with a cattle prod with only enough juice for 1 jolt.

lmao... i know, i saw you sig long before i registered... lol... thats y its my workstation (aka backup rig).. my main rig is still unfinished... wasn going to post it up till it was done... but heres a little sneak peak...





cpu- cooltrek 360, laing d5, dtek with nozzle, alphacool bay res, 1/2" ID tygon, pc ice blood red...

gpu's - 2x mcw60, mcp 655-b, black ice gt 240, mc-res, tygon 1/2" ID, pcice yellow...

[The0men]

It is obvious a lot of effort has gone into that. It's a neat rig to. Nice work, need to darken background or take photos without flash to see the most out of the liquid, or are you getting UV's?

Nice work

[ANP !!!]

That Coolant color makes me sick, J/K.

Nice setup there. What case is that ??

Thank you bro...

ive gotten some red and yellow leds, just that i havent fixed them in... was fixing up my workstation so that i could take my gaming rig offline... also, got abit more cable management to be done as well as install a couple more things...

lol... Lian li PCA71B... i was expecting the red to be redder and the yellow to be more yellow... am thinking of changing to fluid XP ultra for the red.. their blood red is sick... but i heard that it makes your loop waxy and such so am still reconsidering..
