Finally Lain-Li V2000 prototype is complete (well kind of)

If you remember what I went through before, this is upgraded version of previous prototype. I am still waiting for my condenser and compressor for finilizing the design so using old mach II condenser and compressor with newer revision of chilly1 evap is utilized. Froster-X is there but it isn't installed yet as I am waiting for AC adapter for it. BTW, Thanks for the sidewindow NJKid32

(I just borrowed it lol getting one myself next time I drop by my supplier)

Froster-X LCD... will replace picture when I get froster running.

PSU was meant to be sitting at bottom but I couldn't get extra length for few cables on this full sized case. Will have to look into extenders. Pointers are welcome. (especially PCI-e extender)
Bottom is NJKid32's case that has proper orientation to allow best airflow.

I love this stock window that is made by lian-li. Very clean.

Innard of system.

Before putting into case and load testing tuning.

As usual, X2 running 1.7-1.71v 3.1ghz 2xballistix, etc. Like Idle temp?

Again, same setting running dual prime

Unfortunately, these wonderful temp is not same inside case. #1. evaporator lost bit of efficiency leaning sideway, #2. Case airflow is still bit less than ideal. I would need to use something stronger than Panaflo M1A to really get back the temperature. However, I chose not to as being silent and cool is what I am aiming for. Total temperature lost is about 3-4c whic is more than acceptable as even with the temperature increase, it is well over 10c colder than stock vapochill LS

Once new compressor, condenser, misc parts I asked lian-li to make arrives, I will get next revision of prototype up

you may have all that, but your computer may still be at risk, so watch out! (*points at lower right corner of the screen*)

That's looks REALLY cool man. If I had the money and the knowledge for this, I'd be all over it

nice case

**jinu117** · 11-15-2005, 06:50 PM

Thanks guys

The warning is on my load testing hdd that has no network to begin with...

Got AC adapter today so I will post G-froster in and clean up the wire somewhat more tomorrow

Hey, nice system jinu. I've been thinking about doing the same ever since I saw your first attempt and was wondering if there is any chance in fitting a PSU in the case? Could you possibly give me the dimensions for the bottom compartment? Cheers

nice temps jinu!

Thanks again guys. I built one more unit like this today (well just innards so far... case installation comes tomorrow after it passes leak testing).
Probably will put froster value on that one.
Anyways, I got froxter-x running :P It's really cool when you get exact same reading (+/- 1c) of UEI DT200... Only place where delta was higher was around start up where it showed +/- 2c which I could really care less :P
One thing was... wiring this thing was... painful. I hope to see XE version soon. No more X for me on my units I think.

Sorry for the blurry picture. Night time shooting with flashes on this snap shooter doesn't work to well :P Anxiously waiting for my Canon to arrive hehe.
