    MM H2gO 10 lbs of **** in a 5 lbs bag

    Just finished building a new rig for a friend / customer. An I thought I would share it with the great people of XS.

    I was very hesitant at first with using this case as of lack of information and ideas from other builders. However it did turn out to be very fun and entertaining process.

    The case does make for a very tight fit but i feel it looks amazing when all said and done. I hope this thread may clear any questions for others as well help with ideas for anyone thinking of purchasing this MM case.

    The water cooling set-up includes the fallowing:
    2 x PA120.2
    1 x PA120.1
    2 x EK R600 WB
    1 x Fuzion CPU WB
    2 x Laing D5
    1 x Dual 5.25 Bay Res

    Loop order =
    CPU > PA120.2 > VGA's > RES > PUMPS > PA120.1 > NB > PA120.2

    Last but not least the pictures hope you enjoy

    Excellent build
    I was playing wheres waldo with your hardrive/hardrives but I cannot find him!

    I noticed one problem with this build. The front 220 is either sucking in cold and or pushing through hot air.
    If it's sucking in cold air, I would push mesh on the top. Otherwise all the radiator heat will turn this into a heat box

    Fantastic job! The symmetry of those water lines is excellent. Frankly, I've got mixed feelings about the back-to-back pumps, connected with elbows, but it sure is aesthetically pleasing! :tu:

    Wow! (Checking out the manufacturer's website...) I would have never guessed that the case was *designed* for all of those radiators!!! For what it's worth, I would lose those side panels, and replace them with a single piece of formed plexi.

    Edit: Err, I'm not suggesting that you get rid of the I/O panel.

    Absolutely, This case with the current side panel and top panel i feel is definitely taking a lot away from the inside eye candy. Especially the lower portion of the case as well.

    MM should offer different side panels as they do with other cases.

    Beautiful job. Excellent work with an excellent case.

    One ?: What PSU is used in this? I can see that it's not modular, but I don't recognize the cables. Just curious... because if I didn't know to look for it I wouldn't see it at all, I'm amazed you managed to hide all those cables.

    I'm going to venture a guess.

    The cabling suggests that its a ToPower-made unit. If you look at oneof the pictures of the rear of his case, the PSU fan says that its a Tagan. My guess is that its a 900, 800 or 700 watt model because its a regular sized PSU.

    BoostFed,

    That is an awesome job and the build is stunning!

    Shouldn't you cover up the Thermochill fins at the back because they are quite fragile ?

    The PSU used is a Tagan 1100W unit as seen here,

    I'm with you on all that. Amazing build (I wanna make a tiny watercooled PC sometime!) and I would put something over those fins in the back. Even just some wire ring grills would help protect it.

    Let me add to the congratulations ... and beautiful pictures too! Love the clean build.

    The only thing I'm not sure about on that case is having the I/O panel on the side ... guess it will work okay for some desktop arrangements, but it's a bit strange.

    Tis a thing of beauty! That is some incredible work.

    I like the combination of normal fittings and stubby fittings on the sli setup. The 90 degree elbow fitting was a nice touch too.

    I hope I can get my duality build to that kind of quality.
