Case Mod - In Progress Slames Rig - Perfect Lan Case

Hi,

as i wanted to get back in contact with some guys from wizd, i decided to start some forum life for me again. Some may know me as i was "aqua computer Berlin" and i still am ModMyMachine.com (watercooling tutorials and stuff), as well as working for OcUK and Caseking.

So .. here is my actual computer which i am currently modding again.

Final result






here is the story and more pix in the end


Right now i start with sleeving the PSU .... For those who don´t know how to do here you got my tutorial vids.







Prepare to fight, here are all contestants:



First cut the shrink to same size, then i start sleeving.

These should be enough ... all 20 mm




Cheers

Stefan aka Slame

Just a short shot within the sleeving ... pro tip: never watch television while sleeving, it takes longer.





Finished the PSU ... 20m of each colour btw.





now preparing the board and the silver waterblocks. First some polishing.

 

board with CPU, NB and mosfet coolers.



Board mounted on mobo tray with aquaero LT attached at the ventilation slots.





I already precabled for the fans




one closeup shot of the Cuplex .. need to shoot more straight



graphics card, network card and TV card mounted and tubing done

 

This my front ... the lower part will be cut today, so that the rad on pic 2 will get fresh air. The original front bezel is going to get CNC cut and is already at a friends.






But as you can see. The 240 rad fits exactly in the V351. But it really is up to a mm.




The small supporting rad will be where the 80mm fan is in the back. Did my own bezel there, so i can put tubing through it.




In the floor some more fan support when on lan party.




The pump is sited in the front. Behind you find the place for the Gigabit switch. I did cut out the 5,25 drive bays on the left side for this as you can see on pic 2. Pic 3 shows the mounting of the switch.








The switch himself with new wiring, as i am using the PSU of my rig for power.





DVD drive with stealth mod.




All the other drives ...




operation fresh air accomplished

 

small Bling Bling update ...

first of all i mounted some white LED under the floor.




Awfully they had special connectors, but when i looked closely they had the same like fans .. here we go




Took the old ones off and wired them through the ventilation holes in the floor.



Then some UV cold cathodes 10 cm.






The inverter comes behind the 5,25" bezel in front of the HDD.



Here we go for the next update

Pump power cable was too long ... so shortened it. The LED bands will be connected to the fan connector of the pump later






The front not cleanly wired yet. Still waiting for the front bezel. :-(




Front buttons haven´t been sleeved yet ...






BTW ... this is the back bezel which i did for the rad.




Here a shot from the right side everthing tubed and wired, except power cables.




and the left side.

 

The top panel with fitted Gigabit switch ...






Connectors for external radiator when home.





Left side wired with fitted Gigabit switch






Right side wired




Just a picture how the front was before again ... pic from Lian Li in black. I have iron gray.



And now renewed with front ventilation openings.



Just need to remove burs. Still some flakes around.

Here is the final product. Keep in mind what is inside this little beast.






pix ladies













oh .. you didn´t see the external radiator ?

 

Welcome back, dude. Moving to project logs.

 

Looks great.

But that tubes looks small-is that 8 mm OD/ 6 mm ID?

 

Wow that looks stunning dude I actually really dig the small tubing

 

Really nice work, something you dont see every day

 

Love it !

 

Thx everyone, will do an update as i move an aqualis and another radiator in, as i don´t really need the switch.

8mm outer, 6mm inner ... great size and cooling
