I was always told, never put things where they dont belong, but this rad placement is an exception i think.

Thanks Pete, I tried to get it in the case and is just wasn't going to happen so it went under it. Keeps it all nice and discrete as well.

I've just been adding up the cost of this build and so far based on donations and stuff I had laying about gathering dust I am running at about £120, and one things for sure it will finish at under £150.. Modding on the cheap.. haha, love it

I won't be so lucky on the next one thats for sure lol

Not going to make any progress this week end, but I'll be putting the hardware in dure the week so expect a few updates. Maybe even be complete by the end of the week.

bulldogjeff · 30th Oct 2012, 18:28

The last few bits have just arrived today.. Now I can put it all together ...Wooooohooooo

bulldogjeff · 4th Nov 2012, 15:44

Just about to put it all together and I can't find any fittings

Got loads of 1/2 compresions, no 3/8 and 7/16 tubing. All non compatible. I think the route I'll have to go is ti squash the 7/16 tube on to some 1/2 inch barbs.
Oh well at lest I'll know that once that tubing goes on it ain't coming off ...lol

washing up liquid, boiling water.. just make sure if its on compression fittings the compression bit is padded out with ptf or something (that plumbers putty works great)

bulldogjeff · 7th Nov 2012, 20:14

Got all the barbs now, Just tested one they have some serious grip. Won't let go unless I slice the tubing.

Looks like it's time to build a computer

It will all be done and dusted now very soon, maybe even by next week end.

I've been really busy lately but I have found some time to get started on the inside, mainly routing all the water cooling ..

To start with I have a matching pair of these...Although the blocks have different logo's on them, they are identicle, both GPU's are factory over clocked, but I'll be giving them a bit more.

So there you have it. A nice bit of progress.

I just need to braid a few cables, get it all wired up and leak tested and I'm done.

Probably be all finished with in the next few days.

Thanks for looking

Teelzebub · 12th Nov 2012, 22:15

Well it's been leak tested now for a few hours and all seems ok, so it's time to start putting it all together.
