Starting the server case watercooled (56 kb aware)

Overbrazil · Jul 24, 2004

I friends, i was searching for a case to fit all my dual loop system... then i found an AT IBM Power server case in a computer junkyard. i was a bit afraid of adapting the rear panel with my motherboard, but when i opened it i found a lot of space, panaflos fans(total of six, including aluminium ones), then i bought for 30.00 dollars.
Now, I am using two cases to fit my system

, but i am starting to mod this case.
This is the new case :

I am planning to use one side for the pumps, rads ad reservoir...
ideas ?

That's very sexy for a mod project. Looks like you have a LOT of room between the board and the front of the case. Why not grow a fern in there or something? That would be hardcore. :attn:

Kidding about the fern. That is a LOT of good clean space though. I'd be at a loss of what to do with it.

In Brazil, you can find a lot of junk. Their trash/recycling system is a bit lacking. I love the country though.

That case rocks, never seen anything like it.

thanks to all

,
the case is masde out of light brass.it came with 2 120x120 al panaflo fans, 2 92x92 panaflo low speed, and 2 80 Canon fans to internal ventilation. Well it has a noise dumpening , but not is perfect. the motherboard doesnt fit. the pci bracket is for EERC cards

but i have an old atx case to cut the rear panal and attach it:

thanks Rio, but is not a recycling problem. Let me try to explain, but sorry my english.
This yard company buy a lot of material that another big company sell when it is run off money, so they can sell for a low price. Sometimes i buy 486, pentiums and monitors that i give to people cant buy one, and dont have the possibility to play with. Maybe one of those can be a computer engeneer :santa:
