    Well got looking at the back plate and was thinking of maybe doing it out of aluminum like it is but time and such i decided to make the back plate and a couple covers for the interior out of smoked plexy should give it a cleaner look as it will stay with the blacked out look of this case.

    Here are the peices all drawn out ready to be cut.

    After much time and one redo got the back plate done for the rad and such.

    The rest will come later Here is a quick pic of the hosing layout going to have to get some seperators to try and clean this up a bit.

    System finished but didn't have time to post

    Well here are a couple pics of this upgrade finished and running am so far behind on things not even funny but am still working on a few things for this one still have to redo the vidcard cooler time for a new aqua-computer one also working on a new p4EE with 1066 bus speed and a fatality board will post about that one soon to but any ways enough rambaling here are some pics of the finished job.

    Here is a shot of the new fan grills and backing plate all set up.

    [​IMG]

    All the water running and tested the inside looks like some strange alien innards

    [​IMG]

    Over all this came out so much cleaner and better looking get rid of all those fans system is not only quieter but now is cooling considerably better.

    [​IMG]

    So that is it for this one hope you enjoy

    yow, what on earth do u need that setup for? :D What software do u use that will actually use both CPUs at the same time? I've been intrigued by dual CPUs, but can't justify the cost. Has the birth of winXP/2K brought about new changes in this market?

    oh, you killed your pic throughput already. :p can't see the loverliness!

    Very nice, the tubing isn't as tidy as could be but I think in a case like this it has to be showed off with the UV :D I look forward to seeing your Dual AMD project :hip:

    As for what i do with this just about anything i want from games to compiling 3d programs play around with maya a bit as well as a few others render times are pretty good :D

    As for the hoses yah it is not that neat but didn't have a chance to get some seperators for the hoses still trying to find some up here and considering how much is in there and the parts it is cooling doing pretty good

    The path for cooling is

    CPU - Top Rad - Vidcard - Chipset - Hardrive - Second Rad - Res - Flow Meter - Back to Pump.

    All total there is about 2 liters of water in this
