Thanks for all the feedback - very useful
To answer a couple of questions....
The green interior powder coat was mainly for a good background colour to show hardware clearly and a matching set maybe in the pipeline.
They are Koolance Quick Connectors but as NaeKuh pointed out, they are pretty restrictive so i'm on the lookout for something a bit better - though they do look and feel nice.
I did a quick test and one of them takes a DDC with XSPC top from 13.2 LPM to 9.3LPM and if you consider that two would be used the flow will drop scarily low
The over all shape is due to a Black Ice 480GTX so shortening the case wasn’t an option............and would be extremely hard to do anyway tbh
The top IO panel and the other bit will be cut out completely and some kind of grills fitted for more airflow - likewise the back panel will have some kind of grill also.
A fan controller is yet to be fitted somewhere and i also forgot to mention there is a small hole cut on the front to adjust the D5 which may also be put onto a controller.
Anyway, going to get it hooked up over the weekend and see how it performs, even with the Koolance QC's
Thanks again for taking the time to post
Are you looking at selling these? If so I would be very interested.

@ kinghong1970 - yeah I chopped a Cosmos 1000 in half
Man your work is on fire!
Looks great, just offer it with a PA120.3 and it will be perfect.

Not had a lot of spare play time lately but i did manage to get it filled up and bled which only took 60 seconds or so is a step in the right direction i guess.
Just got to find a bit more time to get it hooked up to a PC and see how it performs!
Why are all the dates in this thread screwy, with some posts missing? (I know I tried to verbalize my drooling just a day or two ago.)
Those new pics are killer, coolmiester!

Chopping a case in half is not a novelty... look at my worklog where I chopped a 2nd WaveMaster to extend the top of my first to house the WC radiators.
However, making a portable wc box out of a chopped case is a nice touch
That looks sick.
Looks great! Wow, chopping a Cosmos in half... Very cleanly done, too.
Very new to Xtreme Systems forums and I am already a fan of your work. I give your take on an external water cooling solution a huge YEAH!!
I've gotta admit that is velly velly good..What a great idea...
Did you actually chop down a cosmos case to reach the right height for the water box?
How did you join the case parts you cut to lower the height?
Looks like it just magically shrunk!
