My watercooled Stacker 831 build :)

very nice mate. I think your idea of the PSU pulling cold air from underneath the case is a good one, but I don't see how you can hide the cable if the PSU is that way round and facing the front of the case, unless you set it back say 3cm and just run the cable through a hole underneath the case.
 
i have the psu moved back about 1cm and managed to put a mesh in front it :) will sleeving the cables when I can finally received the parcel(been delayed 3 days).

the gpu load is 38.5C with 1hr atitool scannig artifacts, is it the usual program for gpu stability test?
 
i think i have to paused the build for a few days :( I have just killed my mobo, now looking for a replacement....meanwhile, i can work on my fragbox2 as i still not finish it yet
 
I took them out so I can cut the case to mount the PSU properly, that night my gf wanted to watch movies using the projector so I put everything on the mobo tray on the table and used a screw drivers to short the power on pins(was too lazy to get the power buttom/cable from the garage). i got a spark when i tried to power it on, but it did powered on a few sec then shut off completely, and i cant get it to post anymore :( I'll never power up my pcs with a screw driver!

anyway, look at the bright side, I can get a new mobo, im thinking a DFI LT P35/X38 or maybe the new P45 Asus P5Q DLX (and thats 16 phase cpu power :D). I also take the opportunity to upgrade the cpu block to a D-TEK FuZion V2 :)
 
ok, while im waiting my new mobo, I cut the case and fitted the PSU at the front bottom. So the PSU is only taking 2 5.25" bays now and will be hidden when i fit the mesh cover. Here's how it looks now :)

Finally got the new mobo delivered with the MIPS blocks, thanks a lot clone38 :)

I've decided to seperate the NB/SB/Mosfet from the loop since the last install's temp wasnt satisfying. Will be adding a new loop for them after I finished my other build. Here's the finished build for now :) Still need to add a mesh at the back , where the orignal PSU mounting plate is.

Here's the MIPS nb/sb/mosfet blocks, I'm thinking of getting another DDC and a RS240 or 360 for them, will decide when the reviews of the RS come out.

This is my first try on cable management, took a lot of time but still not as clean as I want. Any comments/suggetions welcome. :D
