    Hi, I'm new here, so sorry for some mistakes and my english :D

    FINISHED - final pics on page 2!


    My PC was very noisy when I played games, so I was thinking more and more about creating watercooling rig, but it was rather dream. Few months ago I need a new desk and in the same time I saw L3P's projects (L3p desk, Cross by Redharbinger).. So I decided to make my own desk including computer with water cooling.


    SPONSORS


    [​IMG]

    With PSU V850 and 4x JetFlo 120 red fan.

    [​IMG]

    With EK-HD fittings and angle adapters.

    [​IMG]

    GTX770DC2OC

    [​IMG]

    With Alphacool radiators and few special fittings.

    Thank a lot to sponsors. I can't finis this project without these parts.


    I spent hours figuring out how to do it all. Next days I was making some sketches in Google Sketchup and after that and then I finally drew everything in AutoCAD.

    FIRST UPDATE

    After laser cutting and bending the "main" part of desk, I bring it home and test it little bit :D

    Everything started on this nice laser cutter
    [​IMG]

    And continues on this powder coater :)
    [​IMG]

    Finally at home!
    [​IMG]

    Testing some old MB and fans, everything fits as I wanted. :)
    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    After that I must do slot for MB. I used back part of old Eurocase.. :idea:

    [​IMG]

    I cuted off all unnecessary parts

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    then I resurfaced it.

    [​IMG]

    And test it into lasercutted part. :)

    This looks very good! I really like that you made extra space for your legs. That is the main issue I have with desktop builds.

    Looking forward to the final results!

    I love the desk! I assume that the accessory wiring it temporary and will receive proper attention?
