looks amazing man! nice job on the cutting

[Armitage]

That panel looks great bud, and a good idea to utilize that free space in the case.

Nicely done, extremely helpful tutorials.

Cheers man. I just kept it slow and steady.

Thanks. I thought I'd never fit them in that small space :P

Small update:

Been trying to turn the XSPC tops round on my DDC's and have found that the hold no longer lines up with the centre of the impeller. I basically want them oriented where the outlet I facing forwards and the wire is coming out of the right hand side of the pump.

I bought some M4, 25mm machine screws as they provide a bit more "give" than the stock ones which have wide shoulders on them.

I'll let you know how I get on.

Hehe, it's taken nearly a year so far

Wow man, 2 weeks! Where did you order from?

[D0BR0]

Just ordered from France. It took around one week, but as I ordered it to one of my mom's colleagues, it is in France (where the shipping costs are lower), and I can't go there (well if I really wanted, I could but that would take me 3 hours or more...). And my mom is on a trip until next wednesday, so I have to wait...

Ahh. Good plan though as it'll save a fair bit of money I'd imagine

Guys, I got my sleeving from mdpc-x and shipping cost was only 6 euro It took 9 days to arrive and materials are excellent

sorry for advertising

[eponymous]

Well I got a little bit done before I head out of the country for two weeks :P

I got those XSPC tops turned round eventually by using ordianry stainless steel M screws to replace the shouldered screws that came with it. It took loads of attempts to get the damn thing lined up with the centre of the impeller though I'm reasonably sure they're fine now.




I also got my lovely Lian-Li radiator brackets from PPCs

Gonna fit these babies when I get back:




That's it for now

[D0BR0]

nice, where are you gonna fit those radiator clamps? don't really get it

[eponymous]

nice, where are you gonna fit those radiator clamps? don't really get it

They'll be going in the drivebays to hold the front radiator in place.

I'll then have both the fans on the door as well as the fans on the radiator (in push-pull) to cool the rad.

[D0BR0]

Ah okay, I get it now
Yeah I also put a P/P on the front rad, just inverted the fans on the door, as the air is coming out of the case on the front.
Anyway, looks really professionnal, personnally I did all the mountings home-made

[Tim1]

I have those brackets in my v2000, holding a feser 240 with scyths perfectly in the drive bays. Great product lol.
Build is looking good, keep the updates coming

[aka_GK]

w00t, update!

Do you know why this brackets are of different width? I have no idea why they didn't made them identical
And also for what those hole with plastic edging is? Fan cables I guess?

I was thinking of doing that. I'm not sure though as it may screw-up the airflow inside the case. Does it work better for you?

Yeah I'm not sure either. One is adjustable whereas the other one isn't :S
The plastic edged hole is for the fan cables, yeah
