preparing for the part out..... :D

Three 120x38mm Scythe Ultra Kaze 2000rpm fans, one three pin connector, sleeved. Yay

Putting the MSI K9A2 Platinum 790FX to use again, benching it one more time before putting it up for sale. The original CrossFireX PIMP board. (Nevermind the yellow paint in the background, we are testing colors. :) )

I love that rad mounting . . . If I cant get hold of a TRUE I might do something similar.

Thanks! Sadly I'm going to sell my water setup, CPU, motherboard, and RAM. Prepping for an entire new build. Not sure If I'm going AM3 or i7 (or I might wait for i5). Everything will be in the for sale area soon. :D
 
damn thats a nice mod :) i wanna do mine soon

Thanks man. Its actually be evolving. Right now I am on Revision 5 <.< If you want some help and tips I will be more than glad to give you them.
 










Inside shots - ill try to improve the cable managment when i do the next dust clean :)
 
Lol, I remember when I got my Antec 1200 .... proud moment.

Now it spends most of it's time in bits, getting modded, painted or whatever.

I also remember when my hardware was pretty clean, now it's permanently hidden under a blanket of dust! Was going to do some more painting on mine, but I really can't be bothered to clean it!
 
tomorrow I will have an update with pics for you guys. For now here is what I did. I redid the wiring on both rigs. The AMD cruncher just looks a bit cleaner now and also switched/replaced fans. THe Intel rig I finally was able to organize the cables on the back panel enough so that the panel closes without having to sit on it :laugh: Also wiring looks slightly better inside. I also hooked up my fans to a fan controller. I must say temps went up about 10ºc, but it is much much quieter. However the temps will be lower as one fan on the rad is not hooked up at all. For some reason one of the channels on the fan controller is dead. I'll figure it out tomorrow.

Await some pics tomorrow guys :toast:

ok, i'll have them today, but later. I have to wait for my buddy to get home so I can go get the cam and come back to take the shots :toast:
 
Sweet! Yeah antec 1200's are the dustiest cases i've ever seen! they fill up so fast, all that weird airflow lol
 
Going Extreme Cable managment tomorow (hopefully)
 
Haha Yeah, I'm not putting my board and stuff in my new case until all that comes in cause I might get a ddr3 am3 one. :rockout: Then I'll put in there and make it looked pretty ha. Get some UV lights the whole shabang

looking forward to that dude :toast:
 
Oh about that dust man, Geezus, i had the thing for 4 days, today i probably made the filters lightweight, so much dust.


I redid the case about 5 times when i was puting it together, couldnt close that panel unless i sit on it fer cryin out loud. Got some equipment (im gonna use some wheelhubs zipties things, work for cables) and probably gonna rout the cables a bit better roun behind the back of the mobo. What i really need is a 24 pin extender, thats just killing me.


And i have only one prob with teh case - all the fans are blue as they should, except the top 120mm exhaust one which has this sort of a green-ish tint to it. I know LED's go whiter when you give them more voltage, but that aint the problem surley. So if anyone knows how to sort out LED's without RMA-ing the fan would be rather helpful

haha, i need to look into that for my rad. I cant take apart my loop to clean it every two weeks. Since its mounted to a radbox, in order to clean the last fan I literally have to pull my rad off. One of the reasons why i'm looking for a new case.
 
What you could do with the 1200 is, if you have a triple rad max, (3 x 120) you can mount it behind the front intakes, and then add another 3 behind the rad so you have a push-pull thing, and still keep the case stock looking.

Oh, and i put the cpu to 4005Mhz now, and it magicly works without errors at all. Case might have done it :D

o_O :slap:. Allright then we'll take 2 of these cases, and make it a 1500 LOL! :laugh:

:laugh: yeah this rad is huge. I'm thinking of following COld storms steps and going with a Pinaccle 24 from MM. wacha think?
 
If you wanna live in that thing, sure, no prob. Winter - heated by components inside, summer, cooled by the rad :eek::laugh:


Seriously, that's the only thing that i know of that can fit 4 x 120 rad with ease
