Hello all and once again thank you to the many helpers on this forum that aided me down the right path on my builds. With this build, I decided to focus on the radiators ability to have as much air flow as possible and keep the system components cool.
There are two loops, one for the cpu and one for the GPU.
CPU Loop: EK res -->MCP655-B-->Swiftech XT-->XSPC RX360--> EK res
GPU Loop: EK res -->MCP655-B-->GPU Block-->XSPC RX360 --> EK res
Parts:
CPU: i7 920 D0
MoBo: ASUS P6T Deluxe Ver 2
GPU: XFX 5870
RAM: Corsair XMS3 1600
PSU: Corsair HX850
And the rest of the good stuff.
The case is pretty much a replica of Navig's tech stations with different radiator brackets. The front power/reset switches were made by him, as well as the 5.25" brackets. I made the radiators brackets by bending 1/2"x1/8" steel using a hammer and steel vice. I added in the neoprene foam padding to reduce vibration transfer to the case. I used oak wood instead of MDF because I had some laying around from a past project.
Not sure if I covered it all but that's what forums are for.
