Scratch Build – In Progress [project]6th GeN. 30TB - 2730W PSU ^^ Finale?!

Anfi-Tec



A new sponsor has joined up, Anfi-Tec will be providing full cover blocks for the MSI 790FX-GD70 boards









And yea... alot has been done yesterday... and even more today, update coming later today, stay tuned! ^^

 

mmmm love the Anfi-Tec stuff

 

looks good so far.

how much is this all going to cost you?

 

awesome! anfitech is a great company.

 

Will prolly end around 10,000$ somewhere

that would be marketprice though 0.o

 

The screen mount ^^

Hi guys,

Gonna post up some pics of some work done yesterday, have completed the screen mount now, thats going for the midsection of the case

Worked it out from a 2mm alu plate

 

OCZ brings the power ^^

Norway is probably THE warmest country in the world right now... especially when ur working inside a large ass building with stainless steel plating -.-

Anyways.... beside the freaking hot weather these days, what have Mr.Grevaeg been working on? ^^

His project ofcourse!

Some general progress pics












yes, its shrinked ill get back to this one



The first set of 360 twin radiators

After quite alot of thoughts and ideas on how to fit 4x 360 rads and 2x 240, ive finally found a solution for the first and second pair ^^

Theres alot of space on the bottom of each module, might aswell use it for something
sooo.... placed em up, and got the 1/2" fittings in (why would people ever bother using anything less btw?!)











The water ress . x3

Swiftech got some really cute water ress'es, they seem somewhat small, but really, why would u need 10 gallons in a ress? also comes with a fillport in the top, and possibilities to mount up nozzles at top, side and bottom, cant get much better then that imo









PCP&C Silencer 910w !

Well my friends, they have arrived... and god.. ive never seen that many cables loose outside a case in my life... ill prolly have weeks infront of me to manage these. But then again, OCZ provided a perfect cut after measure's by me, so they deserve a huge applause for the work and dedication they put in their PSU's, still cant wait to get em up running, managed to plug one of em in and start em up, have heard alot of rumors that they are quite noisy, but i have to disagree there, no way in hell they are producing more then 26DB'ish

lets get some pics out, shall we ? ^^

























Guess thats all for now guys, ill work on getting some spacers on the bottom module tommorrow, and hopefully get ready to ship it for wet sanding within a few days, stay tuned ^^

-Cg

 

holy moly. Wires!

 

Have fun with cable management... This is going to be BEASTLY!

 

yes... yes it will be a pain

 

this is going to be great.... when it will be finished, success!!

 

Bottom module

Hi guys, small update today, ill just let the images speak

 

Wow, that's a lot of hardware inside - is this going to end up as someone's server?

 

Just read the thread. Goddamnlazypeopleaaaaah!!!!

Looking great there mate! 16 cages? Wow!

 

Cable management, day 1

Hi guys! update today

Lets start up with a few words of frustration... since the cables comes unsleeved... i guess someone would have to pick it up and do some work on it... and guess what! that person would be me -.-

I just tell myself..One day... ill get these bloody cables managed...

a few of em got wrapped up today though, and more to come!

Plug's, Pin's and awesome homemade tools!

As most of you noticed doesnt the HDD cables come sleeved.... only one thing to do in this matter! just pick it all appart, and wish for good luck on the re-assembly ^^

u all remember were the start was....






Some trial and error had to be done before getting a decent result


Didnt find anything suitable to push the cables into the sata power plugs, so had to improvice somewhat... turned out great, pushing cables like crazy ^^










Now u see it, now u dont!

Been working on some ideas on how to hide the rest of the cable mess aswell, and believe ive found a good solution ^^

This would be the bottom of a 2 set piece of cable hiders for the majority of the PSU cables, will also house 4 pin molex for misc power in here, and stuff for cathodes and waterpumps







Thats all for today folks, update again tomorrow

 

this is the crazyest mod and server pc i ever seen! My congrats good luck!

 

Simply outstanding work! Really love crazy builds, very unique.

Not sure if its already been said but is it going to be painted or lacquered or something?

 

Will prolly be giving this build a powder coat layer =) just have to decide on colour scheme and stuff like that first

 

Pump choices up next... any ideas guys? ^^

some requirements :

* able to lift 180cm up
* freferably external power supply (dont wanna be dependant on having the computer running)
* preferably cheaper then 150$ each
* need to be able to fit 3x in the widht of 30cm
* atleast 600l/h to get some troughput

 

you'll have to look at eheim's pumps, for 230V...
or maybe Sanso pumps (small, powerful and almost silent industrial grade pumps, most are 24V, PDH054 is the only one 12V i believe), they are the best out there, but very hard to find. You should email direcly the company.
If you dont mind noise, go with an Iwaki (RD-30 would be the best choiche, they are hell powerful and very small, but run 24V. i'm sure you can fit some meanwell 24V PSUs in there tho! )...
