Goliath Triple Cooling System

After looking at the above the first thought that comes to mind is...
"Dear Lord in heaven did you get it "right"
Absolutely beautiful from any angle.

MDPC?

that thing looks so amazing....

For the love of all that is holy...

Incredible!

[lloydsmart]

Absolutely brilliant! I just love every aspect of this project. Superb.

[bradical]

did you do the welding yourself on the fan shroud? cause those are some nice tig welds

[okydoke]

I know i said this previously in the thread but this is by far in a way the best system build Ive ever seen

[teyber]

great!

[Movieman]

great!

Now I understand that your overwhelmed but comments on "THIS" rig deserve more than one word!

[LedHed]

I posted a few shots of this rig over at Guru3D and the response has been amazement at the very least.

[Duh]

now I understand the disposition of things... gorgeous my friend!! BRAVO, congrats for such skills !!

[Zucker2k]

JEEEEEEEEEEEZZZZZUZ KRAIST!!!!

Man, what's your system spec.? Anything short of a classified board in that thing would be an abomination. I would gladly contribute 'something' to have you put in hardware deserving of that much cooling powa!

Thanks everyone for you compliments and support! This has been a very long and stressful build, but I hope it will be something to be proud of in the end.

Thanks for the offer..... I am seriously looking for a dead, damaged or cheap EVGA X58 motherboard, so I can do a mock-up in the cooling chamber. I don't want to use a new EVGA Classified. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You should send EVGA a link to this thread, alot of pis, and tell them what you are wanting to do. Maybe you can get a sponsor ship (they could make and send you something worthy of being put on her for advertising) or at the very least, they can/should send you a dead board? They might be able to give you a discount too for what ever else you need (tri sli)? It would be great advertising and also show what their product can do (as I'm sure you will be able to push it). Maybe try and get a ram company too?

And as always: Just Awsome!

+1 on working the sponsorship angle. Super nice, fapping-good build

Thanks for the heads up about contacting EVGA. I sent them an email to the marketing department, asking for help with the motherboard. I've purchased two GTX 285's and the i7 920 DO stepping processor. All I need now is the EVGA X58 Classified mobo and Corsair Dominator GT memory. But, I'm running low on funds, after all the money I've put into this build. So, I will have to wait a little longer to find good deals on the remaining components. It sure would be great if EVGA pulled through for me.

Lend the money and fire up your battlestation and sell tickets to see it in action, its just like seeing shuttle launch!

So... this may be a silly question, and apologies if it's already been answered, but now that you have the SS for your CPU where the hard drives were going to go, where are you going to mount your hard drives? Also, is there any chance you can still water-cool them? As that would be awesome.

Its funny you mentioned the shuttle launch. My wife and friends tell me every time I'm working on the build....." You need a launch pad for that thing, just in case it starts to fly"

The hard drives will be mounted in a Lian-Li EX-33 Expansion Hard Drive Kit, which will be mounted in three 5.25" bays. The last bay will be for the CD-RW drive. I could possibly still watercool the drives, but I don't think it will be necessary. There will be a 120mm fan blowing across the drives and another 120mm fan pulling hot air out of the case.

Looks in for more pics..sees none..cries..

I'll be posting pics soon. I'm in the process of modifying the cooling chamber. I have a little back-up plan "surprise" coming...this thing has started growing again.

[Sweeper]

I'm need to estimate the heat load for two overclocked GTX 285's and NB/SB on Evga Classified. I'm guessing around 700 watts.....what do you guys think?
