You have to admit, though that there needs to be more light on the left side.
AHA thats what I need to do. Put the light switch to the cathodes somewhere!!!
Anybody have any ideas they like to make happen!!

Braided hosework looks EXCELLENT!

:)

* Heh, almost up there with using metal braided hoses for radiators etc. in hotrods on the street...

APK

P.S.=> I THINK I know where you get some of your "inspirations" from (between those braided hoses & the radiator cooling? It's a dead-give-away, lol!), & it's from another 'genre' very much like this one - hotrodded cars! apk

LOL, cool - "We do try"!!!

:)
cHillenI love hotrods, although I currently own a Supra.
As do I, but can't "swing" (or rather, am unwilling to) gas costs nowadays for a V-8, although some of the small blocks out there now do pretty well (e.g.-> Mustang 4.6L, probably equates to old 1960's 289 CID imo).

Anyhow/anyways, on this note?

Well, this thread MAY interest you then:

(All about rides folks have here, some modded, some not... but about rides!)

Enjoy, & again as-per-usual: Nice work on your part there on this rig!

Drools...
That tubing makes me horny.

Amazing work it just needs another cathode tucked away somewhere where it wont be blinding.

Yea I need to put my other one on the left side. Should I do that or put 2 on top an 2 on the bottom?(uv+blue on top)(uv+blue on bottom) Or Should one be on each side?

Chillen, you're gonna laff imo!

See subject line/title, & put on "mental seatbelts":

I liked the 'braided hose' effect (and fact it IS a reinforcement too), above, on your cooling... well, today, I was in my basement messing around in parts for the home, & discovered the EXACT same braiding in a commonly used household appliance - the kitchen sink (optional) water spray nozzle & flexible neck attachment!

:)

* I laffed & thought about this thread!

(Yes, that's right... sometimes, forum stuff invades my daily life too & gives me a chuckle about coincidence!)

APK

P.S.=> Not being sarcastic or trying to bust on your rig, because I still love that braided hose hotrod engine hosework still... just had to mention this! apk

What does that thumbs up sign come from in the icon list? Does it have a different meaning than good job?

The hose I can see where it can look like nitrous, gas inline tubing.

I like your new shots.

Two minor comments.

-The uv cathode at the bottom should be mounted flat against the bottom edge of the case. It looks funny on an angle.

- and the pump is kind of crooked.

Just a couple of suggestions IMO.

No, No I love the comments. Also if you look closer the pump has been flipped upside down. This way it can go to the radiators first and get the water cooler; instead of sending the water to the hot pump then to the waterblocks. Will fix the Cathodes and change those pics!!!!
!!!Thanks fo the imput!!!

I don't really like to strap down cathodes because I'm constantly moving ,modding, and adjusting things around.

Chillen, something you MAY want to look @...

forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?t=13592

Hydro-cooled memory attachments...

:)

* These look NEAT, & probably would "top off/put the icing on (literally, & pun intended)" on your machine (cake)... making it ALL "water-cooled" to-the-max!

(Probably help in overclocking it as well to some extent!)

Oh yea. I have looked at memory module waterblocks. Except that the only dimension for tubing is 1/4ID. That would be a problem. And my memory is hardwired do to the lights. I would hate to have to use a reducer. And the harddrive liquid coolers are out of the question do to clearance btwn the harddrives and the case side when I put it back on.

I am however looking at making a one off custom made waterblock for the X-FI. I just need practice. I would problably use the same waterblock that is on my GPU and modify it a little! That would def. be one of a kind!!!

I like your water setup! It is VERY clean man. You seem like a stickler for running things perfectly. I wish i could have seen your entire PC, case included though. Nice water setup though.
