Case Mod - In Progress Theory | By Hannes ["What? Is this still on?" 22st.February.2014]

You have made that cooler turn from meh to woooah .

 

If that isn't recognision then I don't know what is! Thank you bro!

 

hhhhhh heaaartattaaack!!! my head nearly turned into cheesecake when I just SAW the king of cheesecake!!!

hahahah




EDIT: how will the fans work?

 

What fans? I'm going to run it passively. It's for the looks

 

That is possibly the most amazing piece of modding I have ever seen, custom CNC water blocks are awesome in there own right but to modify an air cooler and change its appearance so drastically for the better is amazing!

 

Passive sounds good! +1

 

I can't believe the respons you're all giving me! I'm like and in the same time

 

This is a must-subscribe-to worklog. Awesome photography, but anxious to see what parts will be water cooled and which that will not.

 

I believe that I'll LC the motherboard, the RAM and maybe the GPU if I'm going to use the 5870. I'm thinking of using a lowprofile GPU and have it under the floor. I'll probably use EK blocks with plexi tops and white liquid, otherwise I'll paint the acetal tops white and use red or black liquid.

 

May I ask how cool a 1055t will be passivley, a roof intake may help a little.

 

Ok, thanks for the quick answer.

Maybe Eddy from EK Waterblocks could make a white Delrin top for whatever block you'll be needing it for?

Now, I might have missed your explanation somewhere, but can you explain why you don't plan in water cooling the CPU?

 

I have no idea!

They mass-manufacture their parts so he couldn't do that. The reason why I'll not lc the cpu is quite obvious isn't it? I have this viewtiful customized V8 to cool the CPU.

 

If you haven't decided on your fluid colour yet; I hope you're using 2 loops, you could make one loop black or white fluid, and one red fluid.

 

Hmm.. Well, maybe I'll do that. I have 2 sets of Laing D5 Vario and reservoars after all. I'll have a problem to fit two rads tho. ;-)

 

External rad? With your skill a rad could look great outside the case? May I ask what's in the two loops?

 

The two loops where your idea so you tell me. I don't have any blocks or rads yet - except all the bitspower products and the laing D5 vario pumps I don't have anything. I've listed the bitspower order in this thread I think.

I'm not that fond of external rads so I don't think I'll use that solution.

 

Sorry, I meant what will the loops be cooling? Graphics cards? The chipset on the crosshair 4?

 

I answered that like 8 posts ago. MB, Ram and maybe GPU.

 

I know its early days, but......... MOTY contender. That heatsink looks awesome.

 

Aw, thank you! But it was way to easy to make to even be mentioned among those amazing builds.
