EvilWeevil : Project Air-Con

[FragTek]

Well I've decided on the PC-75B and just ordered it

That's my Lian Li case of choice. I fit two D5's, an HE120.3 rad with 6 panaflo m1a's in push/pull config around it, cpu block, dual gpu blocks, and a chipset block. All of it fit perfectly inside of the case, LOVED it. You will be very happy with that choice, trust me

 

[EvilWeevil]

Thanks Frag - I'm already looking forward to the beginning of next year so I can get some watercooling into it

 

[EvilWeevil]

A nice man just showed up at my door, gave me an X1900XT and two sticks of RAM, asked for my autograph, then left.

Here's my new graphics card. I'm happy; the man on the box doesn't seem to share this sentiment...

Warrior babe, I am afraid you will be replaced by the far less attractive Arctic Accelero X2

And the less impressive Corsair XMS2 TwinX PC2-6400 sticks

 

[FarFarAway]

Nice mate - that will be a beast

 

[EvilWeevil]

It seems that there is no chance of me getting that Lian Li case for a VERY long time. Does anyone have any other recommendations. Window and full tower preferable, neither essential.

Thanks.

silverstone do one that fits ur bill, i cant remember the model number tho.

think its TJ soemthing or other

 

[EvilWeevil]

I've had a look at the TJ06 with window, but I wasn't too keen on the way things were mounted inside. The window was on the right, which meant that the mobo was upside down, with I/O at the bottom and PCI etc. above....

Thoughts on the Akasa Eclipse 62 with added side panel?

 

[Dav0s]

that design makes tihngs run cooler i think ^^

im not a fan of the akasa, but cases are usually personal preference anyway

I have the Mini Version, the PC-7B and it's secksah!!

I fit a 120 rad (internal), res, cpu block and pump.

I'm soon going to cram in one or two AquaXtreme 50z pumps, another BIP up front, and a Maze4 or MP-1 .

 

[EvilWeevil]

Well, this project is going to have to be on hold until I get the PC-75B. I decided that it's worth the wait to have the system I want

So, this thread will return in about a month

 

[FragTek]

Make sure to let us know if u pick up any other parts in the meantime I think its a wise idea for u to hold off and get that case, u simply can't go wrong with it. It has just the right amount of spave without feeling overly huge on the outside.

 

[EvilWeevil]

Well I'm hoping for a delivery including mobo and HD on Monday, so fingers crossed

 

[EvilWeevil]

NEW STUFFS HAVE ARRIVED!!!

After a long and painful wait, caused by stock and payment problems, a BIG box of stuff has just turned up at my door.

Accelero X2:

ASUS P5W-DH Deluxe:

Hiper PSU:

And also:

XP Pro OEM

Samsung DVDRW Drive

320GB WD HDD

Here's a big stack of everything apart from the CPU:

So the two things still required are the case and HSF, then I can start building. That will probably be in about three weeks. Over those weeks I'll start obtaining some modding stuff ie lights, acrylic fro customization and possibly an LCD (either a drive bay one or one to be mounted elsewhere)

Looks like a sexah box of goodies

 

[FragTek]

Nothin' quite like coming home to a ginormous pile of computer parts in the afternoon When do you expect to be able to start building mate?

 

[EvilWeevil]

I've been told that the next big shipment of Lian Li cases will be in three weeks or so, and I'll start building pretty much as soon as I get the case.

Where'd u decided to snag the case from? No where else has one in stock for ya?

Was getting it from chillblast.com, but it turned out their stock system hadn't been updated. Specialtech seem to be out, Kustom PCs, Scan, etc. NOWHERE can I find an in stock PC-75B!
