Corsair White 600 T on water

[ilidaan]

It's a look that DEFINITELY takes some getting used to, but the more I look at it the more I like it. I have the gunmetal version of this case and I love seeing new things being done with it. took me a sec to figure out what you did with the rads in the front, but that actually makes a lot of sense to mount them like you did. I also like the interchangeable panels, nice touch. Pretty nice temps as well, great job!

10x you for your comment. The primary objective of this cooling was, to integrate as much as possible thick radiators in the housing without doing some major interventions in the body itself. What I forgot to mention, is because of the orientation of the radiators, u allso get the lowest point for draining the coolant from the loop (when you need to replace a new coolant). I made another picture from behind of the case...



But still, some like some do not. For me it was more important the functionality and cooling preformance than appearance, but allso, i personally find this layout very nice. .. There are still some options to cover both the radiators in to the housing so that they would not be seen. But for now I am very pleased.

Another night shot: =)

Why do you have your window fan as an exhaust fan?

I WAS WONDERING WHAT THAT BIT OF PIPING WAS!!! lol that makes perfect sense... clever bit of work there on your part. Still pondering what I want to do with the chassis myself. I think I may do a little cutting in the roof to fit a slim profile 360 rad up top then do the 120 x 2 in the front like you did so I can maintain the integrity of the optical bays since I want to use a bay res. What kind of modification did you have to do to get the twin rads to fit in the front?

Well there was very little modification. All I did was, I cut a hole at the top for a 120 mm radiator, make a holding bracket for the two fans at the front and cut the front side of the body, so that both fans have free air flow through the front dust filtered mesh. The both EK-CoolStream RAD XTX (120) in that orientation will fit perfectly between the bottom and the drive bays, literally by the mil . Even without support bracket both of radiators will stood like a rock between the bottom and drive bays. But they do occur the following problem. If you integrate the the rads like i did, without support bracked and when u insert a side panel back to the case, will the front fans pull the air from inside the case because less resistance which is generated by front dust filtered mesh. So u MUST make a holding bracked that will separate the interior of the case from ambient and than u will force that the fans will pull the air through the mesh.

Here are some more pic of the support bracked....

Because i don't have a full cover water blocks on my graphic cards. The heatsinks on the rams and vr's generated allot of heat so i need a fan that is pulling hot air from the case...

I see it now. I figured that would need to be done; I took my 600T apart and started taking some measurements and when I saw what would need to be done to accommodate something like that a bracket made sense. Definitely like how that all came together, too. I'm guessing it's off-center to accommodate the radiator caps being oriented like they are?

No they are not of centerd. I use a existing holes of original 200 (or is 240) mil fan to mount a support bracked and i inserted the 120 mil fans between the 4 original holes in center..

Ah, for a second they looked off center because of the angle but I see it now. Well again, great job on the rig! I'll be following this one, looking forward to seeing any more tweaking that gets done to it!
