So i needed to make something to my woman and she had some colors she want and a small case so this time i will build a cool little NZXT Manta case moddet to fit a M-ATX and a **** load of water cooling from Aquatuning.de Lets start with the Specs: Motherboard: ASUS X99m-WS CPU: i7 5820k RAM: 32GB Kingston Predator 2800Mhz GFX: MSI GTX960 SSD: Not decided yet NIC: Intel 10GBps X520 Cooling parts Alphacool NexXxoS XP³ Light - Plexi - Intel/AMD Alphacool Eisberg screw cover with springs Alphacool D-RAM Cooler X2 Universal - Plexi Black Nickel Alphacool D-RAM Cooler X2 Universal - Acetal Black Nickel Version Alphacool NexXxoS ST30 Full Copper 280mm Alphacool NexXxoS ST30 Full Copper 240mm Alphacool VPP655 - single edition Alphacool Eisbecher D5 150mm Plexi Aquatuning AT-Protect Clear can 5000ml Aquatuning AT-Protect-UV Crystal Blue can 5000ml Alphacool HardTube 16/12mm plexi clear 80cm - 4pcs* Fans: 2 x 140mm Noctua Industrial PPC-2000 PWM 3 x 120mm Noctua Industrial PPC-2000 PWM More info will come!! /Donnii
So today i got the Alphacool parts for the system Or atleast some of them so we did get some work done! This system is for my woman so its obvious that she helps build it she mounted the waterblocks on the motherboard and RAM and installed the Radiators in the system. More is coming up tommorow /Donnii
Great work, mATX in a Manta is inspired - it's TOO big for ITX. Surprised to that with its clothes off, the Manta is a regular cuboid case Looking forward to see where this is going; like the X99 including cheeky m.2 action with watercooling to follow.
Thank u This case just should have been made for a M-ATX to start with! And yes the inside is a bit cheap
Just a short update from today. We just got the parts from Aquatuning today so we can get going with the build, fittings, PWM spiltter, pump mounting and so on /Donnii
Today i got a nice package from Noctua with the fans and the Chromax ruber things So i got some things done today. /Donnii
The Machine has been running for some time now and is super low noise just as we wanted, now i need to make some parts to get going with this one.
NZXT make a number of fantastic looking cases with this method! Quite unique as a manufacturer in doing that though I think. My current case is an NZXT M59 which is actually a simple 'box' but the exact same insides are used in a number of different cases, and it's been excellent tbh!
