Your PC ATM

I don't know, it's not often you see a swamp water effect like you have going, pretty original. Bad ass looking MB.

thanks, even my girlfriend loved the NB heatsink
the water is clean, only the tubing is rough due to microscopic bits of of copper,i believe

Board is nice,appearance,design,bios,error codes, are professional, it is a solid "resetter", you wont have to use the clear cmos too often (the board shuts itself down for a second, when leaving bios, seems pretty cool too me,must be for ensuring safety somehow )

A little open heart surgery ^_^

I was formatting some messed up drives

Really like the cathode down by the PSU, want one of those myself. How well does your heatsink work with a pull fan as opposed to a push?

Mid to low 30's on idle, never seen it above 44 (C) at full load. I might switch it around sometime or another and see how it changes.

okay then here is my new lanbox

hope you can see the pictures, dunno how to insert

hope that was better

www.techpowerup.org is free image site.. don't see them on my end

Figured I'd take some decent pics:

That's much better man!

I love how you used the ROG logo onto the case top

soylent, that rig is beautiful dude

Hell yea! +1 on that!

 

[(FIH) The Don]

thx!

it was either to put the sticker on the case or throw it out, but then i thought it might look pretty sweet on the case, i'm glad i did.

very Nice case Soylent Joe, and sweet CM too that i 1 clean PC

 

[Soylent Joe]

Thanks guise. I think I'm finally done with it, after 6 months of fiddling with it lol. I've sleeved the FP connections, got a windowed side panel, and done the best CM I can do. Guess we'll just have to wait and see what's next

I really like your rig man, I can't say I've ever seen so much power in such a tiny box, and you did a nice job wrangling all those cables considering how small the case is and and the TX750W isn't modular. Great job

#1 the CM i really nice done, like a pro, the only thin i could have wished is the case painted inside, it gives it at better touch, you know? not a diss or anythin, its just my opinion

#2 THX! i'm planning on getting another gtx-295 for it, and the HX750W instead, that non-modular sucks with SFF cases
and then a cooler with no fan, and let the PSU take out the hot air maybe?

Yeah I know, the new ones actually come with the interior painted black. I always planned on painting mine, and got the paint to do it, but after testing it out on a spare case of mine I decided I'd just keep it stock, painting a case well without popping rivets is easier said than done :/

A cooler with no fan for the i7? I don't think they have those, as it runs pretty hot. If the Thermaltake Maxorb came in a 1366 flavor I'd suggest that, but I don't think there are many low-profile 1366 heatsinks out there except say this one, and I haven't heard much about it.

 

[MT Alex]

Yup, a couple of really nice cases.

@ Soylent Joe - Didn't even realise the inside wasn't painted because everything looks so nice, again, I really like the blue glow. I think it's pretty sweet looking with the waist mounted optical drives, most everyone's are on top. Also, sweet dangley things on the lamp

@ The Don - Great job in a small case. I have a Lian Li 351 that I had quite a time fitting my currunt rig in, so kudos. I don't know, a second GPU and no cooler fan would make alot of heat for just the PSU to vent. I ditched my Lian because of the conflict of fans between the heatsink fan sucking right below where the PSU was also trying to suck air. That situation really sucked.

i know, saw it on 3dgameman.com

and the thing with the paint, i've done it twice now without removing the rivets and it look just as crappy everytime i do it, next time i'll get it powdercoated with some really nice paint.
something really special, like pink chameleon(spell it) or something crazy, just for the fun

but your pc still looks fan-f******tastic so M8

I'd be awesome to get mine powdercoated a sparkly shiny blue or something, but I've never heard of anyone around here that does it.

Since it's on the desk I moved the drives down so they'd be easier to get to. One thing that really annoys me is having the power/reset buttons and USB ports up there on the top. It's a little better now that I know how stuff it set up up there, but I used to have to stand up to see what I was doing. I'd rather them be down in the middle like how they are on some other cases. And yeah, I've got to have my lamp. I'd light my whole house by lamplight if I could, I can't stand overhead lights or darkness :S

yeah i know the thing with the heat, but i removed the 2 small 60mm fans in the rear and the temps dropped about 7degrees next thing i might be getting the Corsair H50, and mount the Radiator on top of the case ?

nope, me neither, but some 1 has to try it, even though it costs around 300 $ thats like 1500DKK (i'm from denmark) everything is waaaay to expensive here, like the new 5870 costs arond 510$ calc from DKK 2700, and at newegg it only costs http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102856&cm_re=5870-_-14-102-856-_-Product

Aah the H50 would be a good idea, it'd probably be tough trying to position the rad, you may even have to drill some holes for the tubes, but if you could stick it onto the back somehow you'd have some sweet cooling in that little monster

i'm thinking like this

Well how are you going to get the tubes through the case to the waterblock? You know, I'm not really sure if you can even disconnect the different parts of the H50. I think that it's all sealed up since it contains the coolant.

i'll find a way, the case is modular so i can tare it apart without any trouble

otherwise i'll just find the cup drill and make a nice hole in the back above the pci brackets

it's not casemodding for nothing right?

Haha I guess so. I think the H20 or something like that is coming out soon, I don't know, look up when the new one comes out before getting the H50, no need to get ripped off.

i'll do that, and now its bedtime, its 3,30 in the morning over here, c ya

here is a pic of my FIRST build. I miss that rig. this pic was taken after killing my video card with a voltmod and a high overclock on a STOCK PASSIVE heatsink

here it is with the video card
