    Hi all...

    I'm starting the version 2.0 of my mod The Green Way :

    [​IMG]


    The main objective is to spend 2 gpu in watercooling (1 gpu will be removed)

    To do this, I'll have to change the water cooling circuit by adding rad and I will pass the tubbing 10/12 to 10/16

    Many other modifications will be made to this project.

    The screws on the upper part will be replaced by rivets , unlike other countersunk screws that will remain in place for it to be easily removable


    Having chosen an easily removable PSU cover allows me to retain access to my HDD rack

    We see here some spacers that allow me to set me straight on the rack ( screws will be cut later)

    This time , the tubbing started .

    I have just slightly over- raise the pump otherwise it will pinch the top of the tank ( between GPU1 and res) , and then I will go down to 1 or 2mm tube that passes between the two rad ( ca looks very very light)

    Looks very nice so far. Why did you remove the 3rd GPU?

    I am not really convinced by the 3way SLI performance compared to 2way... And I also need a little money to finance the project .

    Wow beautiful, very clean execution but, if I may, in my humble opinion the diagonal tubes are a punch in the eye but it is your mod so...

    Hi everybody!

    After some troubles with my pump (which finally passed away), I left my side project for some time

    But for one week, it's going a lot better ... The PC is running again :thumb:

    And waiting to finish the outside of the box (which has not advanced since the last time), I tackled the RAM sticks.

    I had enough of Corsair Vengeance LP ... I have therefore replaced by Trident X I am eager to repaint :D
