Twin W/C Peltier CoolerMaster Stacker Project Log

I've decided to choose which ever (ATX/ BTX) allows for more convenient pipework 
I should be able to sort much of the system out on Thursday, still waiting for the other CPU to arrive so I can test this Ct-479 out. The 770 or Ct-479 is dead, but I can't find out which one, until this processor arrives
Fingers crossed the adaptor is the dud!
The extra CM Stacker Bezels arrived, cheers Bennywidag

Bad news - the 770 must be dead as I am currently using the 765 which indicates that the Ct-479 is truly functioning
I'm not having any luck clocking with the 765, as it behaves very strangely with BOOTing at diiferent multippliers, and really has issues with the BIOS. I'm not going to waste my time with it, as it has a good market value, so it's off to ebay; and on with a new 770
If anyone has experience RMA with Intel, please PM and let me know
Good news is that the reservoirs here, and so is the beastly 24V PSU.
Check it out:

Good god that thing is HUGE!! Is it just me or are those full size crimp loop connectors on there?
I can't wait to see the results of this, it's gonna be great!! I'm also gonna get some nice mod work done early next year im thinking/planning.
My next project will go further than an idea, I promise

It is a monster, I'm actually having difficulty fitting it inside the case...
The radiator has now been properly fitted. I have (very cunningly) fitted modular brackets onto the radiator shroud so that it can be locked in place or easily slid in and out. Take a look at the photo, it works a treat:
I've managed to trun the whole motherboard tray and backing upside down and on the other side, like the Lian V-Series. This will allow the GPU and CPU block to miss the beastly PSU.
At the mo, I have decided to have the beastly PSU up on one end, but am still not sure which way around. I'm thinking of having it going across the case, so that the air from the rad fans will blow straight through it and keep it cool...
That's the plan anyway

Did you get the cross-flow fan with the case, mine really helps with cooling my n/b and other bits.
..and here is those Pics you asked for in your PM (sorry for delay):

Hope they help.

Loads of bits arrived today, go some annoying bits like the grease, tape, and heatshrink, oh and some chunky 25Amp+ Wire :biggrin:. I'm going to solder this wire directly onto the peltier. The wire provided is a joke ...
24V 15Amps @ 172Watts. I have some measly wire fitted with the peltier, and I don't want to see things burn again
Also if the wire is acting as a resistor and getting hot, it means that energy is being lost :frown:, which could effectively be used to cool the GPU down...
