Project Mercury By Snakez Last update 14/02

There is a cooler behind it , and another dual rad in the front, so think will do just fine. And if not , t can always change things.

 

Just a small update , still waiting for parts

So let's make myself usefull and start soldering some leds.





And made some space for the cable's in the ceiling .



Thats it for now , Let the parts come soon . Have to come from far , Slovenie .

 

I know what they are..

You just gotta Love EK!
One Question on that though, are the blocks silver-plated to that they fit-in with the shineness of the case ??

 

Was no option for silver plated at the 8800GTX blocks , so now took all copper , otherwise will be to much different , now all blocks look the same .

 

It's Slovenia actually, they are our neighbor country
those leds are looking nice, show us the results quickly

 

Yeah Slovenia , Slovenie is Dutchmode
For resulst of led's you have to be patience , first all need sleeving

 

I must complimnet you on your attention to detail...amazing work.

 

Finally i can continue I just received the package i was waiting for from www.ekwaterblocks.com .











After dinner i will start again , finally

 

wow, nice blocks, btw. I noticed a name change, can I ask why 'Mercury'?

 

Have you ever seen mercury? The case is so shiny it looks wet, and for sure it's made of metal. Good name IMO.

 

And the work can begin again. I look forward to seeing the completion of this case.

 

i just noticed that there are two EK 8800 water blocks there, dose this mean SLi 8800 GTX's


also please colour code them to the mod, i see so may mods done well, then they stick water blocks in as they are.

Solyent Green is a good example of colour coding.

 

Yes will be an SLI 8800GTX system
For now will put them in like this , but after Cebit show i want to do some more things , and also something with the blocks.
Wanted them all silverplated , but was no option at the 8800 blocks .

 

SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Really good looking project Snakez, one thing though... could you PLEASE do bigger pics (i.e: 800x600pixels)

Really want to see all the pictures bigger!!

 

Here an update . Offcourse tonight started right away with the blocks , was very curieus if and how all would fitt. First started with the vgacard ,and take the original cooler off.











Then put the cpublock at his place.





Also the radiators have the same highflow fittings now.



I hope the nb block will fit there with the vga cards, but the blocks is in place.





Now hope the vgacard still fitts .





It;s real close







But it works
Now put everything back on the mobotray.









And now some rest ,back tomorrow.

@ cool_dude , later on you will get bigger pics

 

In a word... WOW!
I would have thought that chroming the entire case would have been too much, but damn that looks good!

So having sponsers makes you like, a professional modder. Do you make a living doing this? If so sweet! That computer + case when finished will be worth like 3 months salary for me, so I guess making a decent living on it is possible, huh?

 

Still i have a lot of costs myself too , so only costing me money But not complaining here , i love modding

 

very well done snakez nice job once agaian!

 

Started nice and early today Have a lot to do so...

First put the reservoir at his place.







Then build some led's behind the reservoir on the stealthplate







Everything back in place.











And some more picture's.











Let's hope the second vgacard will come soon , so can finish up the wcsetup.

More later
