PROJECT LOG CM SupreDesk

[L4mka]

Hi, I'm new here, so sorry for some mistakes and my english



My PC was very noisy when I played games, so I was thinking more and more about creating watercooling rig, but it was rather dream. Few months ago I need a new desk and in the same time I saw L3P's projects (L3p desk, Cross by Redharbinger).. So I decided to make my own desk including computer with water cooling.


SPONSORS

With PSU V850 and 4x JetFlo 120 red fan.

With EK-HD fittings and angle adapters.

GTX770DC2OC

With Alphacool radiators and few special fittings.

Thank a lot to sponsors. I can't finis this project without these parts.


I spent hours figuring out how to do it all. Next days I was making some sketches in Google Sketchup and after that and then I finally drew everything in AutoCAD.

 

[WrkBoot]

Hope to see some progress,it looks like a great project

FIRST UPDATE

After laser cutting and bending the "main" part of desk, I bring it home and test it little bit

Everything started on this nice laser cutter

And continues on this powder coater

Finally at home!

Testing some old MB and fans, everything fits as I wanted.

After that I must do slot for MB. I used back part of old Eurocase.. :idea:

I cuted off all unnecessary parts

then I resurfaced it.

And test it into lasercutted part.

Subbed, I am liking where this is going.

 

[ShortyDoo]

This looks like it is definitely heading in the right direction! Let me know if I can help at all. I'm sure you thought of it but just in case...remember that l3p had his rad under the house, if you werent doing the same make sure you have a spot for your rad. Again I'm sure you thought of that and I dont know your design plans other than what was posted.

I started to completing steel parts. Desk for reserviors and steel bulkhead (wall)

And with closed top.

Made holes for threaded rod to hold desk for reserviors. Looks good imo.

SPONSOR UPDATE

FIRST TUBE

Tubing with John Guest push-in fittings, working with them beautifully.

And made drain port.

And the second reservior connected.

[ShortyDoo]

Nice keep the updates and progress coming! that drain port and rigid tubing is really nice. when you drain you'll more than likely have to blow a little on the other end to get it empty(pretty hard tilt an entire desk lol)
