Autobot Bumblebee

Sorry for the delay everyone but as you know, life is expensive and so is modding :) I ordered a 140mm Akasa Viper fan from highflow.nl for the back of the case and some crystal link fittings and tubes just to show to the plumber that's doing the loop with me what he's working with :)

I also ordered some case feet from mnpctech a few days ago and they should arrive very soon.

Here's the package from highflow

Testing the crystal link. I thought I'd never trust them but damn they are strong...

And finally the fan fitted in the back

I have to say though I would not recommend these fans unless you have a fan controller. They are very silent at 600 rpm but very very loud at 1600 rpm BUT the airflow is just amazing... I can imagine if you have a thick rad and these fans in push/pull, your temps would be awesome. I am gonna use the 120mm ones on the rads in this build :)

I hope there will be an update soon...
 
looking good mate. I agree about the fans I've got 10 120mm on rads in push pull, and 1 140mm for a rear intake, They all run at 7v and I sit at around 25 idle and have never exceeded 54 under prime. When they were on 12v the noise was as if the rig was going to lift off, I just used a 7v molex dropper cable.

I did try a controller at first but they made an awful dull hum sound, at first it was only the one fan, and I swapped it out only for the rest to start making the same sound within about 20 mins.

This is a long overdue update. The case feet got lost in the mail so I just re-used the ones from my Sk1ds since they are exactly the same... I had to get some new screws and bolts for them though but they only had those huge washers so I used some yellow di-noc from http://www.icemodz.com/


These are the case feet from my Sk1ds...

And finally the feet are on. The left one in the front is a little off but that can be fixed :)

My guess is that you are referring to the sparkly nuts that hold the case feet? Do you really think I would just let them be in plain sight when I'm done?

You could say things more nicely and not with that arrogance all the time. Every time you comment on my posts it's like you have sand in your vagi*a
