Project: SR-2 STACKER

[ScottALot]

Wait, you're not watercooling it ?! O.o

[Awers]

Only 3x Gf 295...Why not 3x Gf 480. Nice PSU for EVGA SR-2 Motherboard, look at EVGA Classified SR-2 1200W Power Supply (Truly this is the Antec TruePower Quattro 1200W Oc version).

[coolmiester]

Yeah Awers, waiting on the EVGA SR-2 PSU to hit Europe

I hadn't planned on using either Phobya radiators or fans but when a friend at Aquatuning UK saw the prod log on Bit-Tech and suggested i give them a go, plus the fans fit in perfectly with the colour scheme, who was i to argue. So hats off to both Aquatuning and Phobya for getting involved in this mod.

13x Phobya Nano-G 12 PWM LED Silent Waterproof 1500rpm
13x Phobya 4Pin PWM extension 30cm - black
2x Phobya G-Changer 240 Black
2x Phobya G-Changer 480 Ver. 1.2 Black
2x Phobya Radiator Stand - black - Quad - 4x120mm

Still waiting on blocks but before i get the 480 rads mounted in the rad box, i'm going to do some simple testing to see which way is best for airflow etc but they do fit perfectly :thumb:

[Toolius]

this is pure p0rn.. love the stuff you are doing !!
cant wait to see how the sr-2 fits

[ScottALot]

This is godly.

[Huww]

It's Christmas!

I'm not a huge fan of red/black builds just because there are so many of them, but this is so epic I already know I'm going to love it anyways.

That rad box is coming along really nice, it all looks top notch.

[Vinas]

I can't wait to see how it all fits together with the other 240's. Will you take the feet off of the radbox so it looks seamless?

also good choic eon the rads... I believe those phobia 480 rads are very similar to my magicool extreme 480. It keeps an i7 nice and cool with medium speed (1600rpm) fans.

[hawk999]

where did you buy that faN?

[Biffa]

Num num!!

Love this build. Anyone got an numbers on the phobya rads?

[Awers]

where did you buy that faN?

Try Aquatuning.de :>, a lot of Phobya stuff you will find there.


Can't wait to see the final

[coolmiester]

Big thanks to Michael at MIP's for getting me the SR-2 blocks along with a couple of HK3's and RAM Freezers.

I pre-ordered some M3 stand-off along with some M3 Hex bolts so could go ahead and mount the HK3's using the standard SR-2 back plates so couldn't resist to do a dry run to see how things look

Absolutely stunning. I'm normally a fan of copper sinks, but the way nickel looks in this case is excellent. Very nice call on the look!

Builds like these make me want to go full circle from mini-itx to E-ATX. I especially love the 2nd "case" external rad idea.

I didn't realize you were using dual hexcores. That's just dreamy! I'm just waiting for OC & Temps!

[ScottALot]

Those blocks were made for each other... you did a good deed putting them in the same build hehe.

[coolmiester]

Cheers guys

I'm trying to keep components separate so at least both CPU's will end up being roughly the same temps which would be better when overclocking so i'm thinking three loops like this....

1x 480 rads for CPU's
1x 480 rads for MB and RAM Blocks
2x 240 rads for GPU's

I think that should be plenty

I've used red, blue and green so its easier to pick each loop out but i won't be going with those colours

[Awers]

Great blocks. Three loops. They should call you Crazymeiser

[Church]

Three loops. Reminds Naekuh's builds to me.

[dingdong555]

Want to put the board on scales?

[BIGJOHNH24]

I have the same MOBO and water blocks all but the MEM WB still not sure if i am getting the MEM blocks but after seeing the blocks on the board i might reconsider! my question is how many pumps are you going to use and which model. I was think 2 loops for my SR-2 build but i will keep up with your thread to see how things workout on your build good luck and i have to say nice setup and you are providing some good info for my build so thanks

[Vinas]

Will you take the feet off of the radbox so it looks seamless?

[coolmiester]

Three Kazemaster fan controllers turned up for the rad box so time to make a bezel to hold them.

Just wish they had turned up earlier so i could have got them all mounted but ran out of time so one down, two to go and at least the weather is going to hold out all weekend so more to come over the next few days.

[coolmiester]

Reservoirs TBA

[ScottALot]

That's a real looker!

[Accerian]

Very nice
But i would say that one 2x240 is enough for memory,vrms and chipset.
Also in prefer one loop over multi loop set up.

Cant wait to how it will look all set up

[NOFEAR921]

Also in prefer one loop over multi loop set up.

I hope your kidding.

@coolmiester very nice. Waiting for more.

[BlueAqua]

That res/pump combo looks great, I had no idea it even existed.

I'm interested to see how you'll loop this up, but looks great so far.
