    Quick shot of how things are going OH BOY this is fun now. System takes almost 5 quarts of Fluid Xp to fill . :rock:

    Did a test with water pump last weekend and was no fun getting air out of system. So ordered a Tank gee did it ever help out saved a bunch of time no AIR now. :wallbash:

    Still have some MICRO air bubbles in lines any idea how to get rid of them ? Would a water fluid of sorts help ?

    Thinking of doing a test run tonight with pc on watercooling will see how things go. :naughty:

    WELL that was it wanted to give this a quick try sorry for the low light pic's will take some another day and just had no way to hold the rez and psu so got the one thing that will hold it for sure. DUCK TAPE ! :lol:

    Sorry that Duck Tape is not up to Bit-Tech standards :rock: but will have to do for right now.


    Also had to build out side the box just no room to mount the rez.

    Well cpu used to run at 210 doing Folding at home with FAH GPU Tracker V2 have it locked to only 6 cores out of the 8 cores so that can surf and still use pc like normal.

    Now after about 1 hour the CPU is up to 150 so hope to let it run over night and get a good idea of how system is getting rid of heat with out any fans.

    Only fan is on GPU still .

    Sure hope system can go with out fans 24/7 that was the goal.

    May need to get the mobo water blocks http://www.aquatuning.us/product_info.php/info/p9147_MIPS-ASUS-P6T7-WS-Supercomputer-Set-Nickel-POM-Limited-Edition.html

    If we can get it to run with less temp and no fans that would be GREAT not looking for some sub zero temp .

    This is a EPIC as I hoped! :)

    Concerning the micro-bubbles. How long did you run the system when you took the pics? I believe that my system, which is a looooot smaller, have those bubbles for quite some time before they disappear! :)

    AH True will get it on the Kart Scales here in a bit and we will find out just how much LEAD is in it. LOL


    Thanks, see your making a SWEET case also.

    Learning a lot about water cooling after running system with load Folding at home the temp got to 161 after 24 hours and GPU GTX 260 not on water is also folding . Normal is 211 for Temp for cpu and it will do that day in and day out. So to get down to 161 feels cold. Rad has no fan's on it also . Intrested in seeing how a video card water cooled will make temp with no fans on rad if system can take it will run it that way. The bubbles have left, after system got up to temp gave each hose a nice snap and they all went away.

    Would Like to have one very much but just not in budget right now have to many Hobbies going on right now. :naughty:

    Well here is the info that we all need to know LOL :naughty:

    Got the Scales out and lets get this case on it so we can see how it Handles the track (PC) :lol:

    This is just a quick check scales are not level so each weight maybe off a little. :duh:

    OK WE ARE ON

    AH 102 pounds and we still need to add HD's and DVD's Drives lets go with SSD to save on weight LOL.

    THIS CASE NOT GOING TO NO LAN EVENT ANYTIME SOON !!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Looks like it could be a good left hander setup just a little more than looking for on the RR but moving some HD's and DVD's around we could get a nice Drive up off of turn 2 and keep it off the hay on turn 4 .


    Ok here are 2 videos of last year.



    This was a Fun one last year down in turn 3 and 4 was just way to wide down back strech and was getting dust on tires so made for a lot of FUN but not the fast way around. Fun slides . :rock: Hope to have a nice season like last year !

    Ok, having seen the size of the case, I'm not really surprised about you owning such massive scales, but I'm surprised of the weight of this thing. I thought it was much, much lighter.
    Didn't you use aluminum?
