Case Mod - In Progress Project Green Lantern - *Fan Shroud Concept - March 12, 2011*

Right gotcha maintaining the aesthetics of the build

In that case I'd go with idea one but drawing ambient air into the case

 

From Kitguru.net

Is this wrong? I dont know enough about watercooling.

​

 

The Corsair H50 and H70 work best push pull drawing in cool ambient air, I would surmise the CoolIT's would function much the same...

 

I would really love to have the radiator hidden if possible. Maybe above the 120mm fans on top of case? not sure if it would fit.

 

No it wont, I've just built a watercooled rig using a CM690 II and know from hands on experience it wont unfortunately

 

I will have to trim these pieces down in order to get them to fit perfectly in the case, but I decided to take a picture of them to show you guys what they look like!

​

 

That's what I'm talking about

 

Yep, they look great in person. Can't wait to get them cut and fitted. I still think I want to have custom decals made for this tho.

And I want to have Green LED's under the plexi that can be switched on and off.

I got my new work bench built last weekend so I will be taking advantage of it this weekend! No more working in the house, the wife didn't like me using the dremel beside my 9 month old son!

 

Oh god, please don't use those fonts/layout. The rest of the project looks excellent and you spoil it with that ugly typography!

 

Hey guys, Just wanted to give you a quick update. I haven't been working on the PC the last week. The wife said that I can't work on the PC in the house anymore, so I spent the last week building a work bench in my garage. Just got it finished so I should be able to get some work done this week.

On a positive note, I have received a sponsorship from CoolIT to get this monster water cooled!!!

Big Thanks to CoolIT. They will be hooking me up with the CoolIT Vantage ALC set.

Ok guys, I had some time to get the plexi cut to size, but it's still not perfect. Gotta make a few more small cuts and then everything should line up. In the mean time, enjoy a few sneak peak pictures











More pictures coming soon!​

 

Nice one. Now that looks really nice. it would be a shame to cover it with sponsors names .

 

So should I tone it down:



Or find somewhere else to list my sponsors:



What do you guys think?

 

The worklogs already are good for sponsors and the free publicity as well, as for the case leave it all black.

 

The plexi looks spot on Very very nice

You definitely don't want to have sponsors stickers plastered over it

If they were etched logo's back lit then I say yes but stickers nah, it would make it look tacky for lack of a better word; as it is it looks class...

 

I do like the clean look. Over the next few days, I will try to get the plexi cut to length and then get the video card. Then I can mark where the power cables will come out of the plexi.

 

If you must have the sponsors names on the case go for the side panel or try small and subtle. Like you say, tone it down a bit..lol

 

Put stickers on for publicity photos and then take them off after?

 

That's what Photoshop is for

 

All looks very cool and clean, I agree with everyone else as far as the sponsor names go! Great stuff m8
