SlaterSpeeds 'Liquified' - Update 09/08/04 - Stage2 Started!! (Painting)

looks better than i expected really nice

 

LoL better late than never.

Athough the project is spose to be on hold till i finish exams at the end of the month ive attualy done quite a bit of work since i put it together. (Have been building a gpu block with 80w TEC today)

Heres a 'to do' list for Stage 2

2nd w/c loop
- Gpu block
- Mosfet Block
- Northbridge Block
- Southbrige Block
- 2nd Heatercore
Existing loop
- Swap Eheim 1250 for Laing D4
Other
- Build /find/convert PSU for TEC and Pumps (16v adustible)
- Cut Side Panels (Window and blowholes for Rad)
- Tidy and Sleave 2nd Rail of PSU
- Add Rheo(s) for Fans
- Add temp Probes
- Fix LCD

Stuff to buy

- Laing D4 x2 = £100
- TEC/Pump PSU = ???
- Rheobus = £10
- Heatercore = £5
- x800pro = £250
- 120gig HDD = £60


Stay tuned

 

Just a quick question, do you intend on keeping that q-tec psu? i had one for a while then i changed to my rather sexy enermax.. what can i say! that q-tec was sooo loud compared to it.

If your gonna keep it, buy some silent fans at least... I'm sure you've noticed the noise level from it already though.

p.s when i had my q-tec i didn't think it was loud.. when my enermax came i was like :O jesus.. you don't even know its there

 

Yeh i agree the Q-Tec is pretty damn noisey! I wont be swapping PSU tho as i simply cant afford to spend £100s on a better quality one when a Q-Tec only costs £20 and is more than capible power wise.

Il see how things progress with the 2nd loop but im attulay looking at watercooling it oneday. If not its a fan swap

 

Nice work, esp with the cpu block. Any idea if there are any other UK places selling them 90deg molexes? they look great but m00ie seems to be down

 

Yeh m00ie closed a few weeks ago

Good news is they are still avalible from here: http://www.fleetwoodcomputers.co.uk/

Sorry to anyone who was expecting an update around now but im afrade you may have to wait a few more weeks. Ive got a heavy work load atm. Got a motoX bike to build at work and it needs to be racing on the 11th!

 

well b waiting

 

Stage 2​

Well ive finaly started doing some work on this again. Well i say work on this its more work accociated with this

Ive been prototyping my mosfet block. (One of which will be used in this project.)

So here are some pics





I thought you may also be interested in what i use to make some of this stuff. So heres a pic of our turret mill.





Questions?

btw. I promised mrplow i would do a full writeup next time i build a block so when i finish il post a thread in the Extreme cooling section and explain exactly how things are done

More soon

slater..

 

ohhh, purrdy.. i want one

Great work `slater

 

Cheers PrEpArE. If you relly want one i will make you one. £35 sound ok ? haha







Anyone else care to comment?

 

damn dude if u was in the usa i would buy one in a heart beat ive been thinking on how to build on of those , very nice job!

 

looks sweet bro! outstanding work!

 

Nice copper/brass combo block you've got there. Is that a frontside or backside block? Believe it or not, cooling the backside of the PWM FETs is actually better

 

Yeh its a frontside block. I disided against a backside block because of the difficulty routing tubing and such. Also i may possibly make a batch of these blocks for sale and i did not relly think that a backside block would sell very well for the same reason

 

id have one if i had a water-cooling setup..lol

 

i very much like the case and the color combo's but more of all i like your homemade blocks (who doesn't) and your TIG welding skillz, if ay of you guy have welded you might know that TIG is probly the hardest type of welding (other tha uderwater) and i must say you did a supurb job, now i wish i was in school cause we got a CNC mill (computer controled mill) and a hand opperated one, now i thinking about makes meself some nice CPU blocks *grins* any way i love the whole mod, keep up the good work, your work puts many ideas in my mind

 

Thanks ¿þŘΩĐĮĢΫ?. Im gradualy geting better with the TIG but dont get a whole lot of time to practice.

If you ever need a hand coming up with a watreblock design let me know

 

great wb for your mosfet !
i send u a question in mp

 

wow,
i was hopping you would not come up with some thing this good, as so fare you have got thought 250mb bandwidth in 2 days still got 3GB for you left this month for this

 

Haha. Il make something crap next

You doing a great job there m8
