custom made case

[bluc]

Heres a couple pics of case I'm building top and front view. If I decide I like the design and layout will get it made out of aluminium .still a fair way to go its made of mdf and ply and room for 4 tipple 120mm radiators the triple holes on front are mirrored on back. bigger hole on front will have acrylic window as will top. Dimensions are 600mm H 550mm w and 500mm D.Cheers will update post as it progresses.

How many pc's, phase changes, water cooling loops and fans are you going to put in that monster?

One pc/ 4 mcr320 QP radiators/ 4 laing D5 Variable pumps/ 4 loops/3, 250mm fans just for decent airflow 12 120mm for rads. will be air cooled till I can afford the watercooling and new pc components. Lots of room to spare!!! Is there an auxiliary power supply that does not need to be shorted out to work so I can power my watercooling gear?Also what is a good way to seal /waterproof mdf? cheers.

bit more progress put some molding around window opening and cut and fitted a plastic molding off the same case I got mobo tray from, around dvd drive opening.

[bluc]

[Lagaaja]

Haha, size is power, oversize is overpower! There's gonna be a hurricane inside that box with all those fans.. Keep us updated!

4 laing D5 Variable pumps/ 4 loops/
Is there an auxiliary power supply that does not need to be shorted out to work so I can power my watercooling gear?

Are you wanting to test one at a time, or run all 4 once your system is built?

run all 4 at once, once it buit.I'm getting an extremly old one I can use for leak testing that does not need to be shorted but would not trust it to run the cooling full time.

Ha ha, excellent! I think this thread is singlehandedly going to make me look through the case subforum a little more often.

I love that with all these fans, including a 250mm fan, are just for "decent" airflow to you - you definitely belong at XS... those wusses on other forums would have called it overkill.

I look forward to the progress and hope you do like it enough to make one out of metal, that would be sick.

will be having 3 x 250mm fans(one in back and 2 in right side) as well as the radiator fans when I eventually have enough money to set up the watercooling. I like it more and more as build goes on!!
