Scratch Build – In Progress PROJECT: FLAME ORANGE

At 1min 51sec the video shows the fan in action

 

Update

 

does the Antec HCP only have 1 fan at the back ?

 

It does indeed. The PSU has 2 PCB's under the hood, one on the bottom of the unit, one at the top. This design helps it be so freakin' awesome

 

GPU's decided...
Got my first one today. Will get the 2nd once the GPU blocks I want are back in stock here.

 

These arrived today too....

 

oh I love overkill.. well done

 

so apparently according to a million forums these fans don't work in push pull. Nor do they work even in pull. It's meant to be due to the fan blades and clearance between them and the rad fins. 80% of people in threads reporting really loud noise and slower fan speeds.

However I'm running 4 in pull with no problems at all. Key difference that could be helping me out and solving the problem is the extra space you gain between fan and fin with the AX series radiators. You may have got lucky like me here and avoided that problem. What are you volumes and fans running like bro?

 

Fans are running fine, the air flow seems great. I wont know fully how they are performing till the build is finished, but its getting there.

 

I am completely in love with those fans.

 

Well latest update

 

Following , digging the light glow!

 

change on plan I don't think the orange/gold fittings matched the rest of the orange in my build.

so now I have......

 

Looks better imo.

Shiney, shiney...

 

Your color coding is pretty much spot on with the painted rads and fans and it's looking really cool.

Also having the right mobo helps a lot (mobo accent colors seem to be really close to the case orange)

I still stand by my opinion that color-wise you just can't go wrong with orange and black!

Keep up the gorgeous work, I'll be watching...

Darkened

 

Well Ive just bought the last bits I need, pump and res. Need to go collect it from the etailer in about 20mins then tonight and tomorrow i should have it finished I hope.

Also got my fan controllers sorted for it.

 

That orange is gourgeous and nothing beats black with a second color that screams at you

 

I need some 90 degree fittings now to finish this off... Will get them in the morning.
