Well,

I have ordered a spangly black G70 off Phil today with a couple of mods. I'll be posting progress of the build (Phil feel free to add pics too)....over the next month or so.

Watch this space.

The final photo shows a covered perspex window...a full picture of this side of the case will be posted when the build is complete.......put ya kleenex away lads!!

Right then gents/ladies - EK Pwnage at it's finest:

The finish on the blocks is absolutely boooootiful! (minus the bird flu).

No sign of the Petra's top for my DDC-ultra....

Should be able to crack on with the build next week...man this better be worth the wait!!

They look great Mullet - looking forward to seeing the finished article

 

[imported_Mullet]

Ok.

Petra's top is now with me and has been duly fitted on my DDC-Ultra......note the reduced size and imo better looks! (Also matches the EK backs perfectly!!!)

Running the Dual XFX 8800GTXs...looking nice...water loop going in this weekend....thanks again for the help with this Phil!

With E6600 at stock speeds the 3DMark06 score came back as a shade under 12,000....in single card mode the score was 9494 3DMarks.

Can anyone offer me some advice re. clocking the E6600 on a 680i (striker extreme) board.

Thanks

Hmm,this is starting to look promising,have a go at overclocking and when you get stuck,start a thread in the overclocking section and we'll try to help you progress.You have some very nice hardware to play with and have made some good decisions.

[imported_Mullet]

this weekend all being well....just need to decide how I should mount the pump.

any thoughts guys?

Do i need any anti vibe lark under the ddc-ultra??

 

[imported_Mullet]

All

My setup is being installed tomorrow and I need more advice. My PSU is located beneath my gfx cards as shown below:

The picture shows an elbow joint used to route pipe over the top of the psu because a normal bend is impossible due to the close promity of the psu. My questions is:

Should I use a similar elbow or shall i have the outlet from the lower gfx block coming out from the same side as the inlet.....thus keeping the tubing well away from the psu and would probably be better for flow rates.

Thanks in advance guys.

Well guys...water is in and no leaks to report....

System idling at 26 degrees....

Here are some pics:

Ended up having to use an elbow.... still pretty chuffed TBH!! Not a bad first attempt.

Looks great I actually find those cases and other PC75 quite difficult to hide the cables - its almost too big if you see what I mean.

 

[sacha35]
