    I didn't want to spent nz$300 for a basic watercooled system. Thinking ouside the square I decided to attack an old fridge. 3 weekends later and some flowers to my girlfriend it's finally finished.

    i dunno, im making one, and i must say that the thing is heavy. very heavy. that compressor is killing me! mine is gonna have a nice watercooling setup to run over the CPU, and maybe more. so :p

    how did you put the mobo in there? i dunno what to use as standoffs.
