Hi ya all, I'M BACK. My previous mod was project TECTA I always was fascinated by the complete plexi cases. So I finally decided to go ahead and buy me one. The purpose of this pc is learning linux on it 4 school purpose, so the specs are not high performance CPU : duron 1.8 ( hopefully I willl be able to OC this ) RAM : 256mb mobo : ASUS A7V266-E HDD : 20gig standerd 350W PSU Aquarius 2 cooling system Here is a pic of the system as it is now.... Sorry 4 the crappy pics, but my digicam is dying on me I made the liquid UV reactive with 4 text markers This is the block, still needs to be polished, and 1 of the 3 UVB tri led hubs that wil fire up my rig with light. The side panel, all the fans are evercools with the blade finger guard. The cables 4 the system. WHAT DO YOU PEOPLE THINK, REPLACE THE IDE CABLES WITH GREEN UV-ONES TO MATCH THE LIQUID, OR MOD THEM WITH THE SHOWER HOSE TO MATCH THE POWER CABLES????????????????? The molexes are hidden by these caps. ( Idea came from ORAC 3 ) My by now not standerd 350W PSU The power 4 the drives are the 3 XLR connections. Yes, only 3 pins. The ground may be connected with eachother The 2 remaining jack connections are a 5 and 12V connection that will run to the power box. This will be my power box. It will hold 12 jack connections in totall ( 4 fans, 2 lights, pump+radiator fan,2 5V in case I connect something in the future ) + the 2 incoming connections from my PSU. The connections will be placed in a V-shape on top of the cilinder and the 2 incoming connections from the PSU will be mounted on the back. The cilinder is in fact a holder 4 coffee filters from that senseo machine. Well, I think that's about all 4 the moment. Currently I'm starting with the examns, so the update will take some days and I've allso got to wait on my jacks that I ordered. Let the replying begin GTZZZ from Belgium, SPEEDY
I thought you couldnt use 1 connection for the 2 grounds. I thought it messed somthing up and could posibly fry the equipment you plug it into. Im not sure i thought i read it somewhere in the forums but I might be wrong infact i hope i am i want to make a junction box and 3 pin xlr's are cheaper then 4 pins.
The 3 pins don't mess it up, that's crap!!!!! Just take a look at the printplate of the PSU, all the grounds are soldered toghether, so connecting them on the print, ar right after the molex doesn't make a difference! Gonna buy 256mb more ram right away Does anyone know a nice temp reader ( 2 temps ), but only a temp reader, no fan controller GTZZZZ
You... you stole my idea about xlr connections! I'm going to do that, but can't find cord with 4 connections Maybe I use 2 cord with 2 connections and then use some sleeving kit.
Btw. The "container" lid is made of two detachable pieces. Might be useful info. I found out when i tried to bolt one to a case by the lid , it was the "wtf?" moment. I've used those on lots of reservoirs, they're though and cheap. 1, 2 , 3 Now only a T-line and a filter. Anyway, I like the ideia , go for it.
This could be a pretty cool project. I'm going to be keeping an eye on this one. My compliments so far on your progress...
Yesterday I ordered an enermax rack and new cd rom drive and floppy with black fronts because they are f*** up. Always test your stuff before modding it The new rounded IDE cables, I sprayed the ends in chrome en "sleeved" them with shower hose! GTZZZZZ
i like the audip equip above the cable chrome + plexi = shiny everywhere, so please shine everything ^^ like your HD and stuff ^^
UPDATE TIME, today I made the power box, while in progress I discovered that this will be the hearth or core of my pc. The power box holds 10 connections. the 2 on the back are the power ins 5V and 12V directly from the PSU, on top I've put 7 outs 12V and one 5V. Give me your thoughts!!!! reply's pleaseeee GTZZZZZZZZ
awesome idea for the powerbox. very usefull and creative looking. Cant wait to see more. I might have to learn more about electricity to do somehting similar in the future!
HEy what is the head phone connections yuo using. Are you using mono phone connectors. Im trying to find somthing to hook up my fans in my case with.
