A few moths ago I finnished this project but I hadn't had the time then to make HQ pics so here they are now enjoy them Coments are welcome enjoy the pics they are al Clickable
i love that case! make me one notes: Sleeve those wires that trail out the back of the case. and why dont you push those red sata cables behinde the mobo rather than ziptied on the case floor.
the front of that case is stunning to say the least, but im unsure of the use of that blue acrylic inside though, may have been better to use some sort of metal instead to keep the lian-li feel.
Talk about simplistic watercooling. I use that same waterblock and I have approximately 13ft of tubing in my case... Overall very cool. I LOVE that CD thing, with the top slot slotload thing. And yes, "thing" is a technical term.
those wires are still temporary whe are plnaning a remote of some sort.. and thos sata cables you're absolutly right but i only noticed that when i was busy with the fina asembly... I thing I broke those cables btw yesterdy my pc fell out during a power surge and afterwards my disks spun up so the get power but not of them get recognized by windows so i think the cables are busted
in regards to your 'remote' i belive you are talking about, with the primary frong panel functions (pwr_sw, pwr_led, reset_sw, and hd_led)... i found all of thses can be wired through an old comm port via a riser panel out the back of the computer, since all those only require 8 wires, and comm ports have 9 pins so its perfect, also i found that when doing a similar remote system that if you use a serial extension cable, that you have a premade good looking way to connect your remote to your computer
We had it done in a local metal shop. They did lasercutting and metal construction. So I drew them a design of what we wanted, and they sent us the bill of 70€ and a damn nice front panel ( actually the bill was 140€ and they sent us 2 panels, but ssstt, the second one is under construction and as you might be able to guess, the second one is mine, and will be black with green and a better watercooling )
With a remote we mean a custom made wireless remote Still trying to figure several things out. But we'll get to that later
looks great - love the front panel. Perhaps the plexi could be a little darker, then add a light inside? what about turning the top fan around to exhaust the hot air? (I've no water-cooling experience, so I don't know if that's better, but it seems logical to me )
It's blue tinted acrylic and what your seeing on top of the harddrives are CCFL tubes not water cooling unfortunately.
Sweet job. On your cryptic comment regarding wireless remote, I've got a nice 3 button remote running for my newest build. Button #1 controls power, Button #2 opens the DVD burner, and Button #3 toggles my internal lights. navig
indeed those ar ccfl's... the HDD's do not recuire watercooling they ar snugle behind the 120MM cooling fan hdd don't go over 23°
Cool news the case might be on display on the CEBIT fair in hanover on the stand of alphacool and then this case will have possible 2 twin brothers
