*i feel a disurbance in the force!*
*click*

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOhhhhhhhh-aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh....


much acrylic awesomeness looms in the (very) near future
looking better with every update pranja!

 

Thank you very much.

After I finish prototype today,I will make small but neat changes for the plexi version.

 

The great day has come-prototype is finally finished.

Card holder is in it's place.









And 360 deegres rotation:













155 pics of prototype. Will I be able to break this record with plexi version?

 

This looks awesome man!

 

Thank you very much.

I am glad that you like it.

 

Subbed. Looks really good so far. Do you know how that old Cuplex block performs?

 

Thank you Nutman. It's nice to hear that you like it.

Well,I only run WC system on teble to test for leaks,but I belive it will provide decent cooling to my 2500k. Since I run it on 4,9 GHz with CM Hyper EVO with 68 C under load,I was hoping for at least 55 C under load at 5 GHz.

 

That would be good for such an old block. But, of course, it also depends on the rest of the cooling system. If the radiator is good and paired with the right kind of fans, I think it should be possible. Let's see!

 

I hope that the fitings I purchased on ebay will come tomorrow. Currently,only thing without fittings is reservoir and I don't want to use plastic dish instead.

 

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-breath-eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek! Today is a day OF RECKONING

 

You OK, Silicon?

THAT is just the prototype? Kick -*ss so far.

-What are you going to use to replace/cover all those nuts?

 

i myself am a fan of all that differs to the norm, thats why i like what you are doing.
keep it up mate and keep them updates coming..

 

I would agree with others, if that's the prototype... DANG, I can't wait to see this thing actually complete. Keep up the great work

 

Thank you. Your comments entertain me.

Silicon is cool.

Yes,just a prototype-real thing will be slightli more better looking and more agressive.

I plan to put metal tubes instead those nuts-I only have to find correct ID tube.

Thanky you very much,Abbas.

Don't worry, update is comming in next days. It is not about case itself,but it is related to the project.

 

Thank you. Well,prototype was used to develop some new things-you can see how concept looked before.

Now,I am working on new model anf rafining measurements for CNC.

And thank you everybody! I am happy to have such support from you. You rock!

 

great case/idea!!! any dust-protection here?

 

Thank you. I am glad that you like it.

Well,I will not put dust protection on my case,but if anybody ask me to do for them-I will do it.

 

Here is the promised update.

Fittings for raservoir finally came from ebay so I was able to assemble the whole thing for leak test and tmperature measuring-4 deegres bellow room temperature. But,unfortunately-I had to return to student home as my holidays were over and I wasn't been able to test system on components.










Here you can see how pump is small-I compered it with plexi cover of reservoir.






Enermax has become my new sponsor. I am very grateful on TB Vegas Trio fans for Scorpio and PSU Modu87+ for my next project. Special thanks to Benjamin S. for his effort.



























I made a small video of fan in action:

 

sheer. wickedness. patented wickedness. too bad i'm gonna have to wait for more epicness. my supply of lager is starting to dwindle....

 

Hehe. Thanks,mate.

Don't worry-I am arranging making of case with my friend. I need to revise some things and then we will have regulat weekly update of case parts as they are finished.

Would sketchup model of revised case parts please you?
