[coffeejunky]

Looks nice, I'm Subbed

 

[Barry]

Gotta Love the A05-B..

 

[Mr. Smith]

Yup. This is my kinda project.

I love small cases tricked out and packed with quality components.

Are you going for all three rads internal?! (Side note; I've been toying with selling my case and rad to get a small lili/silverstone and get BI rads in there...)

Edit: Specs - like what though? Older tech like my rig or sexy new stuff?

 

[Jeddy]

Well, from reading the [H]ardForum thread, i happen to know you can fit twin Triple Rads in this case, provided you only have one optical and one HDD.

Shall be interesting to see how you fit the three rads (if thats the case) into the chassis.

Well i've been under NDA with the big names for a fair bit of time and have nearly every bit of kit they have devloped and made over the years. I have a room dedicated for my PC stuff with one wall full of racking thats has it all on there! It'll be moden, P45, 45NM more than likely that i will use!

All 3 rads are going inside yeah!

Move the PSU and mod the case to fit you can yes fit 2 tripples! However in doing so you are limited then!

Yeah you can have dual loops or a 120.6.

It's dead easy looking at the case or plan i put up! If you'd looked on hardforum you'll of seen a few ways i plan to do it all!

Rads arrived! Still awaiting case (ignor the tank of R404a in the back ground, was delivered this morning)

Danger Den Fat Boy 1/2'' barbs fitted for show and what not!

Need to send the RADS off to a mate now for the pimping!

 

[davep]

[Thanh55]

I was under the impression this is one loop three rads...

P.S Pete, you still out there? What's going on with this project?

 

[Thanh55]

Even those 3 rad it abit big for that case I regcon...anyway can't wait for him to set up.

 

[zzhang]

Can't believe you can fit so much in such a tiny case! Get back to work Pete and show us some pictures

 

[Pjalchemist]

Sorry boys been busy with pub and the single stage im building among a few jobs on other phase stuff!

Case has gone, lost, DHL are crap! It was ordered in for me by the shop so i have new one coming, when duno but it's on it's way!

Yeah 3 loops, it's doable, just got to be smart that all!

The rads are tiny, i love them though. Im use to using Thermochill on everyhing and anything.

Im jugerling 3 projects on the go pc related currently and also trying to finish a rocket as well a full time job! LOL fun eh!

Once case is er i can play with it, check exactly where everything will go, mark it up for the cuts, choose color to get it coated and send it off to be done!

 

[Brooksie]

Any update on this?

 

[TonyG]
