Case Mod's

I've been meaning to post this for ages but never bothered

This is my baby with the current Waterchill Antartica kit which will soon be upgraded to a 1/2" 2 x 120mm TDX DangerDen kit.





Just threw the X800XT in 5 minutes before I took those pics so it's still on stock cooling but once I get the new kit that will be cooled by a DD Maze4 .

me likes :)would you not stick the zalman on the loop with the rest of the setup ????nice set up your lucky that the zalman gpu block fits into the holes on your mobos NB ....mine was a killer to get right ..due to having no holes....how is that pump going for you ...i was thinking of getting one ...how many lph or gph ......any how she is looking sweet congrats on the new plumbing...very nice work neat and tidy

I pared the end of the green tubing to get it to fit into the cpu block. Tubing has 3mm wall. Sliced off extra with craft knife and then smoothed it out with a heated blade. You get 2 blocks in the Zalman VGA pack. Used 1 on my 9800pro and the other on the Northbridge.

The pump is noisey at full speed, high pitch whine, but I have it hooked up to a fan controller and am getting 35C al lowest voltage which is almost silent.

Nice not having to hit the kill switch on the pump when powering off.

Have some sleeving to do on the new PSU I got.

My current almost finished project.

Anyone seen this before http://www.xkill.net/rcaslis/computers/Falcon-making/ ?

I want one :eek:

Got the new X-Connects PSU recently and never thought it would look so loverly. Need more UV!! still a bit dark imo. Want to put something in the front bays and a few other little things, but i just don't have the time/moolah atm. Here's a few pics anyway

Know we know who robbed that bank up north... That case is the nicest MID tower pc case around imo, plane n simple never fails..

:eek: I forgot the excel benchmark

Thanks lads, the case is fantastic yea, pleanty of room inside and all sprayed black.The first three switches at the front control the 3 120mm fans ''2 on the rad'' and 1 at the back of the case, i can switch them to 12v or off or 5v, and the last 3 switches are to turn the 4 uv cathodes on/off It's hard to capture the green glow from the tubing and connectors on camera tho
