I wouldn't even think about keeping the Vapochill filled and in tact while doing this.. the tubes are very thin and you get a 'knik' (dunno the english word, like a dent on the place where you bend it) very easily. Why not empty the system, make your mod in all peace and then, when you're ready, let the system be refilled? If you refill it with the correct stuff (like R507) you'll even get better performance. The way to bend these thin copper tubes is by filling them with beach-sand, and then bend them.
Moved to Modding in accordance with forum rules. no pics = no log. When you have done some modding work on your case and the pics are up, let a moderator or admin know and we'll move it to Project Logs. Good luck with it
would appreciate if someone could tell me a place to uplaod photo's for the forum thats free and i dont need to register...
Ok... found a good imagehost Could an admin move this back to project logs? ta Today I mounted a five bay 3 1/2 in the top four 5 1/4 bays This signifigantly increased my internal space, which will be needed for the watercooling onto the piccies Starting off... A pic of the mounted... mounts and two of the eight screws (yet to be cut down)
you may want to think about either swapping the vapo for a prommie or a vapo LS or figuring out somewhere else to put it because the orig vapochills dont like being any place other than just above the cpu, they dont cool properly if you try to place them somewhere else.
Ive been told this before... and also told theres a way around it... but I cant seem to find it? anyone help me?
looks ace so far. However, i'd consider cutting the bottom off of that hdd cage so you can stuff a optical drive in under it.
hey there all the info you need should be at xtreme systems they have a guide somewhere on doing the bottom mounted vapo . hope this helps
