Hello
Very good pictures. Very good lighting affects. trying to figure out what is at the botton of the case (front)... Where did you get this case? It looks very clean..
Daniel
I know its an antec case. Maybe the lanboy. Does look very nice. What type of coolant. I assume antifreexe but what mixture 50/50 or 75/25. Very nice job. I love that case too.

Ok I was in hurry when i posted the pics. So now I have some time I will explain my system. The case is an antec p160. When I first saw I wanted to put the coolent behind the slits in the front some how. In the bottom of my case there is a hydor l30. It pumps the water up the right side slit in the front and goes all the way to the back into the radiator BIX. Then it comes out of the radiator and goes through the cpu block and then down the left side slit in the front. before it gets back to the pump there is a Y for a fill tube. The fill tube is the one going up the middle slot. The coolant is the green swiftech stuff and I have blue and uv lights in the case. The radiator fit perfectly behind the stock 120 (replaced with high flow sunnon) in the back of the case. The air is pulled in through the rad and there is a 120 on top that is exhausting. My temps ( in asus probe) are 20c idle 25c with prime tt running for hours. Its also kinda cold in my room since its in the basement and my cpu is still running stock volts. O and thanks for the move :)

It says antec on the bottom of the case...
I'm wondering if there is a black light in that system or not... the white lettering seems to really illuminate when the lights are off... very professional looking job there!
Edit:
Scratch that my question was answered while I posted :)

Do you like the Swiftech coolant? Or is it just for looks? How many bottles did you use to get that color? That stuff looks great.

This was my first WC so I have nothing to compare the swiftech coolent too. I used one bottle and dumped it into a litter of water (thats what the bottle said to do). Then I filled my system. I had about 1/3 of the mix left so if I would of used less water for the mix I might of got it thicker but im happy with it the way it is. And I dont currently play any games that really stress my vid card. I usualy play planetside and its a cpu and ram killer thats why I built this machine. So until I see a nead to oc my card im not gonna bother with wcing it. Im gonna get a good air north bridge cooler also. I dont want to water cool it I heard to many people say its not worth it.

dude, that's super clean, very nice lighting and colors. i really like how you took your floppy out and how you can see into the case through it.
btw, how do you like your psu, i'm looking to get that one for my next project?
consider putting a mirror in the bottom of your case, it give a false sense of depth plus it just looks good
good job again,

The power supply is doing ok so far. Got pretty hot after 3 hours of prime tt though. Im getting ready to do a vdimm mod and realy push it so im thinking it might not make it dunno yet.

Umm, is your rad fan pushing air inside the case? Why don't you put it the other way and get an intake fan for the lower front?
Pretty good looking setup otherwise. Lots of lights. :D :D

I have never thought of putting mirrors in a case, I really like that idea. I might try that to increase the light and to make it look like there are more tubes than there are, just as long as I do a good job with the ugly PSU wires. Thanks for the great idea, Smirabi.

I was thinking of selling my case and getting that P160 with the side panel. Are you using the temp sensors at the top? How do you like the case? What size is the tubing? The pics make them look like they're 3/8" but it could just be my eyes...:(

nick burns, i'm glad you're gonna do it, post results. i've always thought it was a good idea, but lots of people seemed to also reach that conclusion on their own, so i cant take full credit here.

I am not using the sensors. They just dont match the rest of the case :( The case looks great and its easy to wire clean and mod since its alum but the quality isnt exaxtly the best either. The buttons are cheep and some of the parts are flimsy. Overall though im happy with it. I picked it up at newegg for 120 i think. The tubbing is tygon 1/2" od and if anyone is trying to decide what kinda tubbing to get this stuff makes really tight bends with out kinking :)
