hey guys, i've just got a message that someone is still interested in the pics - has been 3 years since i made them :)

i've never seen such an adapter, what are they good for? all the power chords I know are one end female and the other end male..

something cutting cables in the ocean? it must be the cloverfield monster.

uh i dont really remember what i paid for it i guess about 130€ that would be around 160$ but most certainly it is way cheaper in the us.. by the way, i was quite lucky - the lightning only fried the two ram modules, sys is back up and looking as before :]

that is some nice craftmanship. while i personally dont like the cable/tubing mess at all, it is still some great work what youve done there!

had some heavy thunderstorms over here today and now it won't boot up anymore :/ being two years old, the hardware is somewhat cheap to exchange, but it will take me hours to remove the PSU and mobo :o :(

hi,it's a cherry and it says "modell G - 224" on the back..

to switch between internal and external cooling radiator

well just get them around 90-110 fahrenheit or so, don't cook 'em ;)

well i didnt have a plan for my setup either - it just grew as i moved on :]

i'm wondering if the heatpipes work at all in this upside down orientation?

thats the hl2 collectors tin. i dont know where to get one today, i bought mine when hl2 was released :) it comes with hl2, hl2 shirt and hl1,cs:s plus that ww2 shooter.. dunno how its called btw, the quake 3 and prey tin boxes look much better :D

thx and: yes that's it basically. everything else (power-on, -12v, ...) plus the switches (reset, power, hd-led, power-led) are soldered directly to the back of the pcb

i like the name of that mod :D

well unfortunately it isnt that easy actually. sanding is impossible, i mean its a circuit board and even sanding off 1mm could cut off a circuit path and i cant use a higher riser card because i'm already at the upper limit of what i can get into the tin.. i think I'll try a...

so after going huge it's time to think small I thought and here's my new project: while a lot of you may think that q3 is dead already, I still enjoy playing it so why not building a rig that's dedicated to that classic? (well q1 ist even more classic, but every gameboy color could run it by...

well those are not exactly the same, but equal ones mine have the same dimensions. i got them from www.alphacool.de, maybe they deliver also outside of germany

thx everybody :] yes, it's my heater - cold spraypaint doesnt work that good so i usually heat it up when i want to use it (the pictures have been taken in winter last year) and yes, it's a tj06 :cool:

oh i'm sorry about that - i was 100% sure that they can be stacked :/ and yes you can rotate the inlet in 90 degree steps - this time i'm even more than 100% sure :p by the way, i'm not sure what kind of bundle you ordered, but the res comes usually without the DDC top (where the...

interestingly, if that pic is made from the top: http://enthusiast.hardocp.com/image.html?image=MTE1NTU5ODExMHhWSFNnWFdVVFJfM18xX2wuanBn the pump is mounted in a orientation (upside down) that Laing explicitly states as "not allowed" in their manual http://www.laing.de/file/66 (i'm...

damn, you're right. the screw holes i mentioned are not for connecting two of them, but to mount the reservoir sideways in a 80mm fan cutout. bou you could still connect them if you drill 4 holes in the upper one and use long screws :rolleyes: probably i'll try that, i have a second one...

because there are too much turbulences in the reservoir, thus you get a lot of air bubbles in the water circuit which lowers cooling effiency if you have a high entrance, the pump sucks only water and no air

@36below: for most cars there is a standard that roughly says "for every ampere you'll need 1mm^2 of copper" so i went with that recommendation, left some room, and ended up with 5mm thickness (well one inch is 25.4 millimetres - what unit do you use for small sizes?? ) @moddest...

jep, that's it :)

ok, so here's the small update, just some minor flaws that bothered me: at first, the front grill is very restrictive (and yes, i took the perforated plate out ;) ) but i didn't want to have big holes or visible intakes on my project, so i cut an opening into the floor. that way, the fans...

i'm doing some smaller updates on it right now, like improved tube routing and bigger air intake for the radiator (no, not those from K&N :D ) here a two pics of a modded car<->notebook psu that i hooked up on the rheobus to have the fans run at 15volts it goes all the way up to...

no, i didnt run into any issues at all. well, besides some minor stuff that im getting rid of atm, ill post an update in a few days :) @moddest mouse: the harddrive and dvd drive have their own cables with exact the right length, going straight from the psu to the drives

thx again, its nice to know that you appreciate my efforts.. it would probably look better if all the wires were replaced by solid rails, but i just ran out of time the rig is getting some small updates at the moment, so there will be some "new" pics soon :]

thats quite impressive for a non-hardcore cooling setup

i'm deeply ashamed, but would someone explain me what a "jerker" is?

now thats an interesting phrasing :D maybe you should check for leaks? :o

what kind of silverstone ist that? do you probably know if those riser cards are also available for pci-E ? it looks really cool.

its pulling in from the front, but i had to cut out a lot of metal there and i removed the mesh behind the front grill AND - its still very restrictive. i mean it works, but probably i'll have to rethink that

deus ex 1, took me almost 4 weeks to finish but the fps game ive played most is definitely quake 1

lol yeah my sentence doenst really make sense after reading it again :o i'm already in the ship or station or what it is after that guy in shorts who's a bit lunatic "hey are you okay? ..... oh guess not" you get to another room with some creatures in it and the guy who bombed that...

call me an idiot, but i got stuck in the second room of the game :p after that guy in pants where you get to a room with someone calling you.. well he died and now what?

yes it's from alphacool, but it fits only on the laing ddc or ddc+ pumps!

i absolutely agree with you. what i wanted to say was, speaking of the fan blades in the pictures, the fan should blow. if this particular fan would pull/suck it would be highly ineffective. some fans can be forced to rotate the other way round if not connected correctly.. sry for the...

from the orientation of the fan blades i'd guess that they blow inside the case. at least thats how they should ;)

yeah thats right, all the support lines like -12v or 5v standby are soldered directly to the back of the motherboard :cool:
