Looks familiar, I think I've seen you on another forum. Nice work, what do you use all those cores for? Rendering?

 

[belletoile33]

exactly.

Bring that bad boy into the light, I can't see anything in those pictures!

Hey, could help but notice you are a Mancunian fan. Hopefully we brought Mata

Anyways sorry guys for not being so active as I happened to be sick. For now It's all still raw, have to buy a new gpu probably a r9 290 or 800 series as next October I am getting a much bigger monitor.

Cooling: XSPC AX 360 push/pull config dual pump kit & Alphacool Nexxxos Monsta 480 Push with Noiseblocker 2300rpm fans(thinking of doing a custom top/shroud to do a pull config also)

Nothing special but for my first loop I'm proud of it. I plan on building a very nice new system in the next 4-5 months. I wanted to get a feel for water cooling in my current system so I would feel more comfortable putting it in a brand new much more expensive rig. ( I know the 850watt psu is overkill for this rig but I needed a bigger one and plan on using the 850 in my new build)

Sweet Setup Vellinious!! I'm curious though where did you hide the PSU?

Sweet Setup Vellinious!! I'm curious though where did you hide the PSU?

In the case that's riveted to the back, along with the drive cage and the 360 radiator. It's a tad smaller than the Fractal case, so I have another Define XL R2 on the way, and it'll take it's place. Ordered the case a couple days ago, and have sheets of black and red acrylic on the way from Interstate Plastics to make the front of the case.

 

[stickg1]

I don't think I posted my Caselabs Mercury S3 in here yet...

 

[4Ryan6]

Very neat, your skills are seriously improving!

 

[country25strong]

Hey guys I have finally gotten around to water cooling. Its been a long time coming. Please axcuse the wire mess. I'm in a Thermaltake V3 black edition mid case so not much room to work with. I am upgrading to the Cooler Master HAF stacker 935 around Oct. The first link will be for my build log and the second will be for the pictures.

I suggest adding a fan at the rear exhaust mount turned around as an intake to supply air to your M/B VRs and outside fresh air to the top radiator, you need to directly cool those M/B VRs or you'll shorten the life of your motherboard, they were being cooled by the stock cooling but now that's gone.

Uh, no..... My air flow is great, and I have no need for an "intake" on the back of the case. That's not a radiator in the top, they're exhaust fans.

[Lutfij]

Very sleek compact build there mate! Kudos

 

[rubix_1011]

Thank you kind sir.

 

[Lutfij]

No sir, to you we are humbled!

 

[4Ryan6]

Looks great Rubix, but for myself with my big ole carpenter hands I'd have to hire some elves to get it assembled!

 

[rubix_1011]

To be honest, it wasn't quite orthoscopic surgery, but it was kind of like playing Tetris or Jenga inside the case. I spent a ton of time measuring and evaluating dimensions on everything just to make sure it would all fit. Helps when you plan a build out, detail by detail, instead of rushing around trying to fill an online shopping cart to get things delivered ASAP.

 

[Davil]

So this is what I'm working with at the moment. Thinking about adding a 140mm rad to the back exhaust and I'm replacing the corsair SP120 place holders with some koolance fans that are stronger and quieter. And then I begin the playing with peltiers phase.
