Project Aqua Di Acciaio

[Xenocide]

This weekend i start my new project. I ordered an enlight 8910 that comes monday for my new watercooled case. Everything is here besides the case and the new a64 tdx top which comes tomorrow.

The name translated word for word from italian means Water of Steel.

i chose this name due to the massive weight of the case. 50lbs

Parts:

DangerDen TDX w/ A64 top
Eheim 1250
25ft Clearflex 60 <--obviously not going to use all of it
Big Mama Heatercore with resin shroud
Sunon 120x38 fan w/ 7v molex mod
2x Sanyo Denki 120x38 Fans
Enlight 8910 Case
Brand new OCZ Powerstream 520

Looks like a sunon and a single heatercore instead of the heater core from a "big momma" and 2 Sanyos.

 

[Xenocide]

???

sanyos aren't pictured, they will be case fans

a64 top came today, for some reason it doesn't line up with the base, but the seal seems to be great!

 

[Xenocide]

Lookin good! What's with the weird color in the tubes, though?

 

[Xenocide]

no clue, color has acually changed since i went to sleep, its a light green now...

It may have been the antifreeze foaming andn ow all the foam is gone. Nice work on the italian and Keep up the good work with the mod.

 

[Xenocide]

but color looks good in the tubes

 

[k3nshin]

oOoOoh can we get some more pics of the case you putting it in?

 

[Xenocide]

thats really all i have ATM

i got the case off dumpinggoods for $35 its an enlight 8910

 

[OLMI]

Wow, that looks a lot better now with the green. Are there always weird colors like that until you put in some dye?

 

[Vio1]

how are the temps now with that cooling setup?

 

[Aphex_Tom_9]

nice job, but the outlet of the block looks stressed-

So are you going to squeeze the lifeblood out of a highlighter to make your water glow?

Nice setup by the way

 

[SK8]

highlighter only works momentaraly, it worked for around 2 weeks 24/7 in my old loop. Then it died, Get the green dye from napa.

 

[OLMI]

Do you guys know of any nice UV yellow dyes? I want one that will glow like some yelow UV sleeving I have seen.
