Liquid Cooling Render Gallery

[M40TURBO]

Could any of you do a lian li b70b case. With the front grill\mesh as an aluminum grill. With holes for just the fins of a pair of orange XIGMATEK fans? And put some black with white light Vandal Resistant Switches.?
And maybe a cool window cut out. A 360 rad in the top. A cool cutout maybe? If anybody are bored and don't know what to make.. It's for a new build i'm going to start.. Would be helpfull..

Not really measured correctly since I dont have the motherboard/cpu in my hands. But still. What du you think about the pattern and what needs to be changed? Might even step down to the shop (im one floor above) and machine it out.

[Metric]

Laine: Great job on the modeling and wonderful build so far
Mick64: Very sharp as usual. I noticed that your case seems to have a very matte finish, have you tried alternatives?
OggeOJ: Nice work with Solidworks. Plans on adding an o-ring?

Been away from the desktop due to winter break - just a quick, fun render for tonight. Mostly a WIP, I plan on finishing up the mounting system in the next few days

[OggeOJ]

OggeOJ: Nice work with Solidworks. Plans on adding an o-ring?

Yeah, but I dont know how to solve that. AFAIK, there are no square o-rings, and I cant fit one in. But I still have a year or so before I actually have to machine this (and two more for VGA and NB)

I'm fairly certain a custom o-ring can be fashioned as the D-Tek Fuzion uses a custom, molded one. O-ring cord is another one I can think of

Finished up my CPU waterblock. The design was inspired by EK's Supreme and Supreme LT - with an attempt to combine the jet plate of the Supreme with the compactness and low profile of the LT

Enjoy

Metric I love your renderings - do you have any of the Heatkiller Rev 3? I want a wall paper but my desktop is 2560x1600 - any help is appreciated. Wish I could get started rendering like you. What tools do you use again?

Hello everybody, I've been browsing the XtremeSystems forums for a while and I wanted to share an idea I had about a high flow waterblock, copper for the base, plexiglass around, and whatever for top & fixation. Both holes are G3/8, one directly on the copper and the other one on the plexi. My idea of making a circle block is that revolution pieces may be cheaper to manufacture.
Here is a picture of what it could be: (looks like a gun in fact )

hazilo
Wow, thats nice and original

[OggeOJ]

Fixed edges, barbs, screw holes and how to attach the damn thing to the motherboard, with a separate metal... thing.

No, I have not copied this design. Not at all...

[ggdh]

hazilo, nice idea. But how you want to make it sealed? In most of the products o-ring is squeezed between two elements (like a pump and top). In your case you will not be able to squeeze it as it will be more like push-in. But i like the idea, plenty of copper to dissipate heat, by making more holes/grooves in a inner cylinder you can even make it better.

[OggeOJ]

Might as well supply the drawing sheet.
Which is not done halfways and probably wrong.

[Metric]

OggeOJ: Impressive work since I saw it last time. Looks great!
Jon K: Maxwell Render for raytracing and Solidworks + Rhino for modeling. I don't have any retail waterblocks modeled up at this time.
p0Pe: Thanks for the comment. That reflection came from the lightbox HDRI I used.

Currently in the queue...

[eKirts]

wow everyone has some great ideas ppl have some skills

nice work metric... stellar as always... makes me jealous

i know ive been gone some time, but ive been extremely busy.... anyway had some spare time and started to work with solidworks/maxwell ... still have some things to figure out
but i think im on the right path... thanks for your help emir... set me in the right direction at least :P haha

here's a render of i7 series CPU block im gonna be working on... there are some mistakes in this model (mainly the fins) ... but it was basically just a test to get an understanding of the rendering software... hopefully the next ones will be better... this one similar to others blocks... credit goes out to this thread.. lol :P



let me know what you think

eKirts

[emir]

It's alive!

Wow very nice eKirts, i'm impressed

[Alexandr0s]

Wow emir, that second one even looks like it has a greasy fingerprint on it. Looks great .

And Mick, I was wondering what kind of material you are using to render the metal/alu parts? I can never seem to get those looking that good .

As it looks these are in fact real ones!
Only one thing to say: good job!

[Koen]

Great to see some designs become reality

[Metric]

eKirts: Looks like a great start. Best of luck with your design
emir: +1, nice to see some of the designs posted here becoming real, physical pieces.



White delrin material available soon...

[Kibbler]

Oh that's nice it's like an HK3 and Supreme LT progeny.

[eKirts]

veerrrry nice emir glad to see a production of a render makes me all warm and fuzzy inside... lol....

thanks metric.... much appreciated... that block looks sexy... that white delrin has good reflection... looking forward to being able to use it

been slowly working on stuff... still working on the sink design on the base... ill post when i have something more concrete

[Waterlogged]

metric, nice looking block but I question whether or not that much unsupported Delrin can handle the pressures put upon it from mounting, I see an awful lot of flex potential.

[Alexandr0s]

A build I plan to do somewhere this year:

[neo_rtr]

reminds me of the design from the film tron
cool

[emir]

Thanks Alexandr0s, hazilo, Metric and eKirts.
I've done a quick render, total time 18 minutes
