Some pics of Rasco's "new" rig with G11+White ccfl's in a TT armor.

[Rasco]

Finally got everything fully assembled and done. Sheesh, after changing my pa160 to a mcr-220 to a pa120.2, buying a new case and 7 unecessary orders from every wc shop in the whole world I finally got something I feel is good enough for my needs. For the money I've spent upgrading my WC rig I could have got a new 8800gtx or or a decent conroe setup I'm serious.

Anyway here are some pics. My Pa120 with Blue 120mm Yates, Storm rev.2, DDC2 with Petra's top, Silverprop fusion SL, EK-NF4 rev1.1 chipset block, EK's 150 multioption res with fillport going to the top of the res. And of course Ek G1/4 barbs. Thanks for all the help all you guys here at XS has given me. You guys rock









Sincerely.

I've got a T-balancer BigNG with temp probes and the whole kit but I have'nt had the time to install it so I'm just using the Sunbeam Rheobus fan controller at the moment. Onboard temp sensors aren't that much to cheer for, but here's my idle temps anyway.

The numbers are small but they say
26 degrees with speed fan and 33 with core temp on my cpu.
And 26 degrees on my x850xt, claims atitool

I'll start a prime session and a 3dmark05 run now. I'll be back with some load temps within an hour

nice rig!!! at least tt still makes some good things. and don't worry about spending money on your cooling it will move on to your future rigs where ram and mobos usually don't.

It's not as bright as it seems. Just my lousy camera phone that doesn't know how to take a decent pic
Btw septim, got your stuff right here beside me

Haha, true
Right now it feels like it's worth it. And I feel really satisfied with the rig. On the otherhand I could have spent the money on a romantic weekend with my girl Linn (the girl in my temp pic) in Rome or something. But you've got to decide what to give priority to, haha right?

[Reinvented]

Nice man. Too bright for me, but good.

[Senater_Cache]

nice setup mate.
What ratio water to G11 is that?

[Rasco]

Nice man. Too bright for me, but good.

I know that it seems like the brightness from my rig is equal to the explosion of the Death Star in Star wars.
But it really isn't that bright. Though I'd still not sleep with the ccfl's on
Thanks anyway man

nice setup mate.
What ratio water to G11 is that?

I've thrown in almost one can (120ml) of G11. I'm not sure how much water I've got in my system at the moment but I think it's approx. 1 liter.
That should be a ratio around 1:8 or something

[eXa]

Jup, ur temp looks really nice!
mymymy thats a real swedish girl....

Beautiful rig, bro! I'm going for just about the same look in my soon-to-arrive Lian Li G70. Way back on page 17 of the watercooled case thread is the original silver-pentosin-white cathode look, and I have to say yours is just as good.

Luckily for me, my girl let me get away with all my WC stuff and a new conroe setup. Now I just have to Ebay this s****y Corsair ram and get some Micron D9s (Crucial Ballistix PC-8000 anyone?). Then 500+ fsb here I come.

Grats on a really great looking case. Don't think for a second it wasn't worth it.

eXa you must have done quite some paint job to cut out my girl from that print But scandinavian girls sure is the best there is

Thanks alot mate
I'm sure you'll hit the 500+ fsb soon. Keep us updated, especially with some pics on your upcoming rig.

Edit: I've just stopped my prime session that has been running for more than 2 hours now. I got 36 degrees with speedfan and 41 with coretemp on full load on my cpu. And after 2 futuremark 05 runs I had 36 degrees on my gpu. It really looks like I'm getting alot better temps than with my pa160.

lol did you pick up that pci bracket from petra? I was looking for one and Quoc said he sold the last one!

[serialk11r]

Whoa tons of glare from the lights.

[Rasco]

Do you mean the pci wherever bracket? He packed my order like 4 weeks ago, perhaps that's why?

[serialk11r]

Anyhow, ur rig looks hella tight. Mine looks like crap cuz I had no money to get lights and stuff. My case is also small. Congrats.

[thunderstruck!]

Very nice Rasco. Finally, all the hard work has paid off. The G11 and white ccfls look fantasic. Also, as someone else said, the cooling moves to your next pc and will stay for a long time.

[septim]

well well at least there's an off switch with current batches of ccfl.
all i have to do is rewire some rocker switches.

well can't wait till you get here with my Pasalubong pal. hehe. safetrip this weekend.

[Patriote]

Nice Job There Rasco!
