Now fits on empty 5.25 bay.

These nobes are toggles with On/Off.
See the two black wire on back of each nob. Minimize it and it turns off with a click.
 
Ok now i am onto RAM Cooling.

Please tell me which orientation of fans is good
Type -A

This is what I am going to do.

Install side slot stopper with spring action and 10mm foam to hold it tight with RAM slot.
Form will give it a good grip and also help in reducing vibrations produced by fans.

Will finish the product by 2moro.

Dusty radiator. Many members of different forums were asking me about this radiator..Now everyone can see the manufacturer’s logo still alive and speaking loud about the quality of the product.

Re-assembling you can see all the cable management in action with three SATA power connectors in line. No cable mess.

Wow, that is freaking awesome. When I first looked at it I had my doubts as to how efficient it would be until I saw the temps. Very impressive.

Thanks for making me feel like a retard lol.

You should put some little plastic tropical fish in the case so it looks like they are swimming around lol. Then it would like a computer aquarium wink.

That looks great. To other related PC mods, I'm going to add a night light with phototransistor and other parts so I have a light over my keyboard when it gets dark out or with the lights off. It's easier to see the keyboard that way. I think I'll add some red LEDs and use the 5V power and ground from a Molex connector to power them.
 

Thanks fish idea looks cool.......

 
dude i think you should try by eliminating your total water circuit with blue led and put some glowing particle very small in the water so when total circuit glow the particle will show motion of water and when you make cabby by your self why don't you place psu in bottom so it can be very good in cable management as my point of view

and one more question can you provide picture/diagram internal structure of your cpu block interested to make one. help needed.
and where you get that radiator means if i want to buy new one where should i try
 
hey Rakesh

I also hoping to build my own water cooling system. I saw you have done a great work here, The problem that I came across was the heat exchanger. For that I think I need some advice a guy like you. If you don't mind please let me know the procedure of your water cooling system. If you unable to post it here please be kind enough mail it to me.

If you give me a helping hand to me in this matter it will be very great full to me.

Thank you
