Case Mod - In Progress Corsair Obsidian 650D - Watercooled (Final shoot P3 - 13 Sept)

Time for the final.

I let the photos speak for themselves.
















































Will post the bench result tonight.

 

very very nice
I like the fill up pipe i may have to do something like that

 

Very nice mate, well done.

 

Very nicely done...I really like what you have achieved with this case. Well done. Your sleeving is beautiful.

 

I love the colour scheme on this build.

 

Thanks everyone.

here are the bench result i promised. (2 photos are little bigger that the recommended size, but you can't see much otherwise).

Intel Burn test pass 5 run (also did 2hrs OCCT). Temp never went pass 63°C during all those test.


MSI Kombustor Extreme bench with OC clock. 46°C max temp on this run. Went up to 52°C after 1hrs OCCT.


Crucial M4 with 0009 Firmware bench.


Vantage Score with evrything OS.

 

Nice project log. I didn't realize that the Corsair 650D was such an easy case to work in. From experience, the Corsair 800D is harder to work in.

How long did the entire benchmarking process take?

 

Thanks Rai,

Yes, it's a fairly straight forward case. I would of like some better cable management possibility in the back. (I think they made way too many hold in it).

For the bench, I did 1 evening of stability test. (had a couple BSOD with low vcore). The second evening I did more stab run and finished with the bench. (5 or 6 hours total I'd say)

 

Thanks for the information. When I get some free time I am going to do some benchmarks on my machine. Unfortunately, that will probably have to wait 3 months because of college.
