At last, pics of my case mod & H20 setup!!!!

[cyber mouse45]

Yep here they are, the first nine pics of my PC. I can’t believe how long it’s taken me to finish this thing. Well actually it’s not really done yet. I need to get my new psu back from new egg, I got to rearrange all my wires so they look good, and I think I may get a new mobo. Oh, and I also have to replace my Voodoo 5.

Here’s the first one, my room. Man what a freaken mess. It took me two days to clean it up.

Here’s my Maze2. I may replace it with a Maze3.

This is the beginning of my res.

 

[cyber mouse45]

Just making sure the parts fit before I paint the tubes.

 

[cyber mouse45]

Wow, I had just enough paint as you can see. Hehe

 

[cyber mouse45]

Here it is all filled up with water and running. No leaks.

 

[cyber mouse45]

The inside is a mess right now, but I’ll clean it when I get the rest of my stuff in there.

 

[cyber mouse45]

Here it is all finished sitting on the table.

 

[cyber mouse45]

And here it is in my room.

From the picture, the blue window makes it look like there is water in the case, cool!

 

[Yodums]

Wow I love it very nice. Nice teddy bear

 

[Yodums]

Also did you make the blowholes with your dremel? Thanks.

 

[craigiz1]

Your mod looks very nice. I like the artistic style of the reservoir! How much water does it hold and what are your temps?

 

[IFMU]

Very nice indeed. I have to say I think thats one of the best external res's Ive seen yet!~!

 

[cyber mouse45]

Thanks for the compliments guys. Now to answer your questions. Yes rUfUnKy, I used that hammered paint on all of it except for the res tubes. For that I used some Metal Flake model paint I had leftover.

For all of the outside blow holes I used a 3” hole saw Yodums. But I used my Dremel for the 120mm hole for my heater core fan, and also for the holes that my tubing come through. It works great!

craigiz1, idle temps are right around 33C / 91F according to this crappy Asus Probe. And that’s with my 1800+ oc’ed to 1.678mhz. Mobo temps are 20C /68F. Load temps are 37C to 41C after folding for nine hours, but I think it’s less than that. (Asus Probe sucks) The res holds 15 1/2 cups I think.
