Gutted Koolance :) Not 56k Friendly

[Dragoon42]

So I gutted my Koolance case. The pump died on me yesterday and I was wanting a Thermo prob for my new WC setup. My old koolance had a thermo probe on it, and also a control board and lcd screen read out :)

Up Close of LCD read out on my CM stacker:

Zip Tied Control Board to my 80mm fan holder (on the top of the stacker case):

System Turned on and working :)

After I turned it on, I hooked up on of my fans to the control board and it seems like it might be 3v, 5v, 12v? Does anybody know what the voltage settings are for the koolance fan system? There's a level 1,2, and 3. Not sure how much voltage each setting gives to the fan though.

Most likely 5-7-12.

Get a multimeter and check :beer:

Do you have any pics of the disassembly? My buddy has a Koolance that he ditched after it leaked (when he turned it upside down :rolleyes: ).

Yeeessss, what DID you do with the other koolance parts?

yea let me take some pics. I don't have like when I actually screwed stuff, but I can show you dissasembled. I threw away the pump and radiator. I still have the case. It's a pretty nice case :)

Here's pics of the case. I'm really sorry that these are so big. I forgot to change the size of the pictures from my camera phone =(. But it worked out better in the end because it shows more detail (screw holes etc...):

Back, inside of the case. The four holes you see there is where the control board was. The one hole in this pic is the one that held one of the 80mm fans and the top of the koolance case (the top part of the case that holds the 3x fans):

Front inside of the case. The four holes are the mounting screws for the 80mm fans. The very front ones, and the very back holes (the one in the above picture), have a screw+nut combination.

All together, I'm pretty happy with this koolance case. The top part looks like it can be modified to fit a rad in it. I can't find my tape measure so I don't know what the dimensions are but it can easily fit 2x 120mm fans on there. It's a pretty nice case that koolance did :)

I think they usually use Lian Li cases for the Koolance WC cases so they are pretty nice cases.

the newer ones are.i believe the pc2 series is chen ming tho.still nice cases but really heavy.
