Soo as I was watching France - England yesterday, i took my top plate in and gave it a good rubbing and polishing.. what do you think of the finish? Ignore the candle, it was the only thing in an arms length
More stuff for me! Small update, if anyone cares I orderd some stuff on thursday, and here they are... This is the last stuff i need to get my w/c up and running, I also orderd some ram heatspreaders, mostly for the looks of it My wife is away to day, so i might get something done, if I dont decide to play a game or two of counter-strike (/me is an addict )
thanx mrplow, I try to watch the viewed not the reply number, but some comments/sugestions would be nice, especaly(bad spelling, sorry I'm norwegian) on the watercooling plans would be welcome..
HI balder! I really like the way this computer is turning out! Don't think about the amount of replies... I have a log here to, and some times I get a lot of responces and comments, but other times I don't get i commet although I have updated 3 times.. It's just the way it is, I guess Back to topic: I have that fan.. It really doesn't have the power to push a lot of airh through a radiator, if that's what you are planning to use it for.. (Since I have 2 radiators, I'm still going to use it though..). I'll stay tuned (although maybe I don't reply every time ). good luck mate!
Remember there are a lot of lurkers here (people who just read the logs) The case front looks fantastic, and the paint finish is gorgeous. The idea you had for routing the pipes and cables seems like it should turn out very clean indeed. I was going to suggest painting the inside then I just realised you said you're already going to, which is good I really like the case. I want one
Yeah, I'm a lurker too I'm thinking about painting the front high gloss black too, dont know yet, but I just got a rush to mod, cant wait to get home..
duud keep up with the updates i also have a case like that but a bit difrent but i can learn alot from you so keep up the great modding
mini update sooo, watercooling for the first time, should be fun, only problem is: - no res, make one! - I have a p4, block amd fix it!! And no more paint left, need to buy more, again But i did something today, made myself a res, or startet making one, and painted the side door with two coats of black highgloss... Pictures of res: Me making one... And an onetherone, showing the fill cap, and yes that is a from an old botle, ghetto different angle her I need to buy some more paint, so i can finish the sides, I also cut the plexi for the other side, need too work out the cut, and paint that door first.. \\Balder
OMFG!!!! FFS Alway me!!! Sooo, I started to mount the w/c for a test, check for leaks etc.. AND the l20 is leaking, alot! (pictures when i find the charger for my cam) And since I'we disasembled it a few times, an everyting is mounted correctly, I have to fix it... solution? silicone baby It's drying now, when I come home, I'm gonna test it againg..
silicon and ductape, my favourit things, hmm, maybee add som tape to the res? nahh, I was think about one thing, maybee make a hole on the mb side, to see the waterlevel in the res? what do u think??
omfg! l33tness! I generally don't post much, but for this i make the exception! That is seriously a great case to mod, so big, so spaceous. What you going to fill the other side with? HDDs? Mayb u could put a huge mesh window in the top, or on the other side of the case with a striplight or el-wire around it to make it glow? Keep up the great work!
thanks for the kind words! The pump is now seald, its been going in a loop with the res and cpublokk for 20 houres, not one drop, I found the charger for the cam, so more pictures later \\Balder
i've been a lurker on this project a while now actually. It's coming out rather nicely, but that right side door is a little troublesome. It looks good and all but personally, i hate the vents. If you were to take some chrome mesh; maybe diamond or even modders mesh and fill each slitted vent with it from the inside, then bondo, sand and paint - that would look amazing man. Keep up the good work!
small update, with pictures ok, so someone at a norwegian forum told me that he couldt find a picture of the psu side of the case, and I "forgot" to take one anyhow herer are some pictures: The leaking pump, now fixed: Thats the inside of the case, where the power, hd's and w/c will be placed, thats an 120mm fan for size refence... difrent angle, to show of the drive bays.... Had to put this one here to, this is the flow in my w/c: just4fun and then a small teaser of the case: The right side is not finished, but it looks nice already!! more will come later! \\Balder
Nice update, i like. Any chance of lighting that res with a few red LEDs? 3mm would be a sane choice.
the res will be lighted, and I'm thinking about making a water-level-meter between the to chambers, so that I can look in throug the window and see the water, and when dyed/lighted the water will look cool...
