Project: Cosmos-S-Trail

[coolmiester]

Slight problem - me and Willie at HWLabs got our wires crossed and i ended up with chrome GTX240 and GTX360 when i actually needed an X-Flow GTX360 for the top but as there was no time to get one over i ended up using a black X-Flow GTStealth.

I'm also still waiting on the Intel logo for the front bezel and the black quick release buttons from Coolermaster, both of which should be here tomorrow so i'll get those fitted as and when but should be well on schedule for Multiplay i34 on Friday.

Still can't get the 4" TFT working using an Apple DVI to s-video dongle but i still got a few days to try and get that sorted one way or another!!!

Apart from that, i got both loops routed and filled with both Aquagates taking care of things no problem and everything's running nice and cool

Few other minor little bits and pieces but i got to admit i'm more than happy with the outcome both inside and out

[ibm390s]

impressive job. and very nice combination of colors.

[TedShred]

Man, I still can't get over that awesome black paint.

Love the green and blue in there. That shade of blue is particularly nice. The visual effect goin' on in the GPU blox is soooo pretty!

[dsecrieru]

Sweet!

Now, all it needs is a see through, smoked side panel .

[rafwlkp]

Damn u again ownz man...
Very clean like to Skulltrail & 2x 98gx2
Great, just great.
When next project ?

[mpower1001]

You have some serious talent

[skinnee]

Nice, I see the red is gone!

Even with the rad mix-up...this is one hell of a project build!

Well done coolmiester

[Pellepel]

freakin awesome!

[Dangals]

wow - love the way you have routed the tubing for both loops!!

[Arni]

DAMN~!

[disruptfam]

Wow!!!

extremely nice build... I think the black rads would of suited more so than the chrome ones..but what can you do..

I vote for mdpc...

Just need to tidy up the wires abit more

[IcepiK]

might be noob question but, what direction is the bottom rad fan blowing, up or down?

and what direction is the blue flow going.. res>rad>bottomGPU>topGPU> ?

[twwen2]

That looks fricken unreal. Congrats coolmeister

[coolmiester]

Hey thanks a lot for all the positive feedback everyone......kinda makes it all worth while.

Anyway, those kind people at Coolermaster had be some black quick release buttons shipped over Fed-Ex priority from China and i got to admit they look much better so a massive thanks to them for that

[skinnee]

Those do look better than the blue ones IMO.

[disruptfam]

10000000000000000 times better no doubt!

[skinnee]

those are some ridiculous bends between cpu0 -> nb -> cpu1.

Did you angle cut the tube ends...teach me sensei!

[IcepiK]

wow, those are cool, I hope they sell those black ones on the coolermastershop.

can you answer my previous question:

what direction is the bottom rad fan blowing, up or down?

and what direction is the blue flow going.. res>rad>bottomGPU>topGPU> ?

[weston]

nice job bud! Best looking computer I've ever seen!

[Nate P.]

Excellent, top notch job!

Sorry Icepik, missed that one.

Bottom fans are pulling air through the rad and the loop is....

RES >>> Pump >>> RAD >>> GPU1 >>> GPU2 >>> RAM Freezer >>> RES

[coolmiester]

Just using the last few hours to put down the last final touches

Made a little light diffuser out of mirrored plexi to sit behind the Zotac logo which holds a 4" white cathode and gives a much more even light glow.

Then onto probably the most fiddly job of the whole build...........sanding and polishing the Intel logo. The thing is so small it took ages but i got to admit looks the business.

Still needs fixing on and a final polish it but this is how its looking....

[Captain Zero]

Good grief that's sexy. Real craftsmanship at work here, kudos.

I want one. How much for a custom build? And would you consider doing another Cosmos 1100?

[IcepiK]

Is this the same elbow fitting that you used?

And if so, I guess all your fittings and tubes are 1/2in and this fitting is the only 1/4in to 1/2 in. Does that constrict the flow at all? I need one but was hoping to find one that was 1/2in to match the rest of my fittings......


Also, where can I find those double threaded fittings you have? (red circles)

That is a delrin 90 at the bottom of the second gx2 block, yes. It will work with all G1/4 fittings.

The G1/4 is the thread, not the ID or OD of the whole, you're getting thread and ID/OD confused.
