[Cold Storm]

Thats is definitely some good lookin parts you got there man!





I have #6 coming on October

DANG man! Congrats first off! My dad only had myself... but, married into 3 daughters.. So, he can feel ya on some parts.. lol..


All right, update time yet again.. MK you'll like this. I took your advice.

Ordered from FrozenCPU since they had it all in stock.
-pmp-76 (UN)Designs Z-Bracket for Pump Mounts
ex-tub-153 Bitspower G1/4" D-Plug Male / Male Coupler Set
ex-tub-437 Bitspower G 1/4" Thread 90 Degree Rotary Fitting Adapter (BP-90R2)

yep, I ordered it so that I can connect the pump straight to the res with NO tubing.. lol.. Now, just gotta see if I'll need to grab a female/female adapter and another male/male because of the length.

hey, now! I take everyone's thoughts into account! It just took a bit to look at the set up and see how it would be fully done..


FrozenCPU just called right before I got on and said they where out of the un bracket... damn website updates... But, is sending me ver. 2 for the same price! Woot! I forogt that's what I wanted.. lol

thats awesome, finally gonna wire up the switches?

Im'ma give TPU a little something to see next week. E7200 rig which was my next project is already running. Ill be ordering the case by the end of the week and hopefully the rest of the watercooling gear hopefully as well.

Yep, finally going to wire them up right.. lol.. Maybe..

Just turned on my UV LEds to test the tubing.. well it's not UV active. The Primochill website even states that they "make Uv active" tubing. As the black is the only one that doesn't state it in the site. Also, if you look at the 1/2 od tubing from them, that is black, at PPC, it doesn't even show the words "uv active" at the bottom of the specs.. All that happens with the tubing is it's purple around the leds.. same way if I had the leds placed to face my computer case... So, no UV.. But as i was talking with SP, and just wrote MK, is this...

If I'm going to be doing it as a tribute case for Gundam. My version of the Astray.. Then the only thing that would even react to a "glowing" thing is the core of the Gundam it self.. If it was done as the old style... So, with that in mind.. The res will have a UV active Acrylic tubes. That will light up via the Cathodes that are at the bases.. So, since that is the only thing that will be done that way.. why even go with the tubing? I can do this.

Button Left:
Light up the board area, to show off the tubing/board set up.

Button Right:
Light up for the res, then a little "high light" for the mobo tray.

Also, I would like to see, since I still am doing the etching of the window, about setting up a light that will make the etching "glow"... But I'm still debating on the etching... because that would cover up the res from really being seen.. Wouldn't it?


Also, I was thinking, and don't faint... Of doing fan nobs on the side, next to the rad... that way I could slow it all down whenever I'm just asleep... I don't know yet on that ether.. lol

the lighting sounds good. But what type of lighting? white cathodes, red, blue??

You should find a way to control the speed of the fans, helps tremendously at night CS, trust me!

 

[EnergyFX]

Whatever happened to the TeamAwesomeSauce reservoir you were supposed to be getting?

The lighting will be probably white.. I don't know yet on it.. I'm looking a a black/blue version case.. Next case will be white/red...

Yeah, I don't mind the sound of the case. Not at all.. But, I have just was thinking of if i had it on during the day while at work.. Its not bad, but i bet my grandma doesn't like it.. lol

Well here is a bone to throw in about the fan.. While talking with SP, he threw this at me.

Having something along the lines for the fans as like the "touch lamps"... That way I can touch a button and it would speed it up, slow it down..

Link of it

Something along those lines.. I still have to look into it more.. lol

I applied the Gelid paste onto the CPU... I'll show temps tomorrow.. Right now their the same as the picture I showed in the last page.. So, gotta play around and see if it's "burn in" time needed.

lol.. that's the res I've been getting all along.

T-virus Frozen.Q told me last week he be shipping it soon.. He got back Thursday from a trip... So, I'm hoping it will be here this week. I HOPE! after 3 months.. lol

I think some white lighting will be awesome especially coming from behind or around the mobo, that'll be very nice.

Those illuminated switches are also extremely nice man. I didn't even know those existed. That would be tits if you can get them

Yeah, I'll have to work out the lighting on some paper.. lol..

As for the switches.. Yeah, there tits! I didn't think they did make them ether.. Just something that SP found! Me like it alot.. Lets see how much they cost and then go about it.

Ah, I never got to see pics of it... just the mockup (aka: aluminum can with paper) version. That's going to look wicked! ... well, if you ever get it anyways

the mock up! I really need to do the guide on that stuff.. lol.. I cried when I broke it all down..

Yeah, it's been a LONG time since I ordered it... But, the guys just now learning everything so I'm glad he didn't ship it out and a month later me be kickin my ass because it cracked.. right?

lmao... I don't think I could get small enough flashlights to do it all! lol

Well, the stuff came in a bit ago.

That's some sexy stuff!

And,

Man, RES, get here now!!!

 

[MKmods]

holy crap you are still waiting on the res? I thought you got it already...

 

[Cold Storm]

He said two sundays ago that he would send it out so I can get by the end of the week.. Emailed him Thursday Night to see if he got my message, sent it 3 mins after i got his, and he said he just got back from a trip... So, still waiting after a week and a half..

 

[MKmods]

sorry for all the problems. Most people dont understand how much more is involved in trying to sell parts, Im sure he just got in way over his head.

Next time if you want something trick like that let me know.

It's all good man. He's young and learning the hard way if anything.. That's why I'm not just spamming his e mail for whats going on..

Yeah, I talked with CD about a hanging water res, and I think I'l. still go and try and do that in the next build.. Since the system is going to be a small baby..

I didn't think of throwing anything at you since you where still trying to build your system now..
