Hi all, Thought id post a few pics to show you all what im in the middle of doing.... I recently purchased a mm case along with the lovely ep-uk snowflake grills (cheers Phil ;) ) Im also adding a second water loop to my setup so i can have the gpus and cpu seperate :) Im using the 120.3 rad for my fx60 and a pa160 for the gpus. Ive also changed my fan layout on the rads and gone for the pull/pull config so that all fans on the rad are drawing air away from the case. All the other fans in the case ie; 5- 2 of these are pushing air in over the hdds and the rest are pulling air out (do u think this is ok) Im sure ive read somewhere that it is better to get more air out the case than in. Im also awaiting the 7900s to be released and have those in sli cooled by the maze 4s (if they are compatible). The 2 switches i have replaced with antivandal green and blue led switched from bulgin, and because by using these i have 2 holes left from where the original leds came from (any idea what to do with these holes?).

Any ideas or input is appreciated and may be taken into consideration. I am eventually going to be using the new raptors too ;) Still currently deciding which psu to go for and am for the FSP Sparkle FX600-GLN Epsilon 600W ATX2.0 PSU. Anyone know if this is a good solid and stable psu? Ok enough chit chat b4 i really bore u so heres the pics. The case will need a cleanup i know!!

Ok a few updates.. I have braided some of the cables and just waiting for the rest to arrive so i can finish the rest. Also now fitted the 2nd reservoir on the back of the motherbpard tray and the 2 d5 pumps in the hdd rack. Just waiting to get my 1kw pcp&c psu so that i can do a bit more work. I now have an idea on what to do with the empty holes beneath each bulgin switch and will update this when the bits arrive (hoping it will look good :) ) What do you think so far? Any ideas or things you dislike? Feedback appreciated

Cheers

Dave

And these 2 beautys to be watercooled also ;)

Sorry about the fingerprints but the case needs a good clean ;) Also still need a name any suggestions as i dont like the name "no name" lol:rolleyes:
 
Looks lovely Dave - love the contrast of the yellow DFI against the black of eveything else.
 
Thx Nick ;) Yeah i loved it when i saw the board and case together :) So i think im now gonna use the uv yellow sata and ide cables to match ;) Only thing is now the water colour i think blue but not sure what other to use any suggestions? Need a name anyone???

Cheers

DAve
 
With the uv yellow dye i think it would be too yellow! I dont like clear i like colour myself. Im after red but they always end up looking pink lol. I have orange but that also comes out rather pinkinsh,,,,.... hmm descisions descision.

White leds were used as i thought the contrast against the black looked nice :) Also all the braiding has just been finished and some of the water loops have been added i will post pics soon. More to come soon ;)

Dave
 
Thx Guys ;) Already being sorted thanks Nick with help from Mav ;) Basically to cut a long story short i ordered an expert board but was sent an sli-dr which i hadnt realised. Anyway im in a rush to get this built as i need it asap so i didnt pay attention to box, well flashed bios with expert bios :( and now bios is knackered, but Animal is going to sort that out for me Thx m8 ;) and ive just bought the expert from mav. So hopefully this weekend i can release my little monster to the world lol.

Cheers

DAve
 
thx Nick ;) Well finally after emptying both water loops and stripping the whole lot out and then restarting with another mobo its finally doen :) A big thx to Mav for helping me sort it as i ran into some hiccups lol. Ive been trying to rush the build as my bro is now here so we are going to be doing some serious gaming ;) Probably why i made so many mistakes :( Will get pics up asap. Cheers
