I need to clean it again, but this is my latest watercooling setup. The hard drive block was custom made, I have another one being made for the other side and I'm designing a new mounting system that will isolate the drives from vibration when I roll it on the floor at lan parties. Enjoy

That should show it pretty well I guess. Some sweet systems on here btw!
 
new update includes the cooler master stacker side window, zalman fan speed controller, uv reactive lights, and my awesome X2 3800+ running @ 2.94 :D

^^^^ these pics are my most recent one's but I did cut those 2 tubes pushing up against the window so now it looks much better.

also the camera I was using was kinda crappy so the pics with the UV reactive lights don't look anything like that. they look a lot more purplish.

This is my latest build. Most of it's mine but the CPU and vid cards were on loan for a write-up I was doing

Yeah, I know that 2 of the pics are slightly redundant but the last gives the better internal view.
 
Drilled out my V2100 today and mounted a few things...

MCP655, Micro-res, MCR-220, Yate Loon D12SL-12
(Need another bolt and nut to mount the res to the one brace, have to get that tomorrow)

Ran out of time tonight, but tomorrow these might get some use:

Maze4 low profile SLI kit and Storm


What do you guys think?
 
Hope this isn't too big...

To do:

1. Buy more zip ties (ran out) and clean up the jungle of cables.
2. Get some of those tube coils (or whatever they're called) and ditch the zip ties holding out the kinks.
3. Widen the hole I ran the tubing through.

I don't have a clue how you guys do the SLI bend, but I couldn't get my 5/8" OD Tygon tubing to not kink (tried boiling water and about 50 zip ties, but neither really helped) so I had to do GPU ==> CPU ==> GPU (at least for the time being til I can get some 90 or 45 degree elbows.).
 
Updated Loop/Hardware setup. Got my X850XT PCIE Card instead of AGP clocked stable at 560/600, never goes above 45c :) CPU Clocked at 287x9 with Storm.

Updated:

I moved around a few blocks, and switched up the fan arangement on the rad (which you cannot see in the pics) as while as got a new GPU block... and then I reworked the hose arangement a bit. Came out nice. Won't last for long though, in a month or two I will be doing a major overhaul and moving to a new case.

This part gave me a bit of a hassle, DIMM1 on my board is right where the thread wanted to be. A bit of working and I got it though:

Here's what I've recently put together. Apex ultra kit with MCW60 all internal :) Pics are full size, watch out.

Pics

 
I was NOT happy with it at all, temps were amazing (64-x2 4200 2800mhz @ 32c 100%load) but I thought mounting the raditor outside of the case was ugly.

here's a couple shots of my latest loop in a Cooler Master Stacker STC-T01

Here it is finally, was horrible to bleed the thing as the res is too small. At least I didn't kill my hardware like I had a feeling that I would. Semi successful first WC. Thanks to ReD.SkY for the help!

Horrible photos I know, Bad lighting + terrible photographer. Sorry about the feet in the one pic also :\. The 80mm fan will be replaced and UV lighting will be added so the dye is actually useful.

AquaXtreme MP-05 SP LE, MCW-60, MCP-655, MCR-220, Alphacool Mini Res, 7/16 Musk, Distilled + Dye-Lite UV blue, Aquacomputer grill, 2x Yate Loons.





 
Dual systems (I need to be re-motivated and do some cleanup and wire-management):
There is a dual fan radiator on top and one in the back of the case. Everything except the bay mount resevior (black one) is Danger Den. I pulled out the stock Alienware ALX Koolace crap of course.

 
Couldn't stand the stock side panel so I ordered up the windowed panel. Had issues with tubes rubbing against the window and getting tweaked hence the black velcro strap things. The CPU out to GPU in tube is still touching the window, too long. It doesn't look like any of the fittings are stressed but because I like to worry, I am stressed. Good thing new tubing is cheap. Anyway, on to the pics:







 
I did it for shits and giggles, and my fan is pushing 97cfm, so I'm assuming its good enough. Temps are 30-32 idle and 36-37 load so I'm happy.

Here is my water cooled system... I just finished building it. Completely custom.

cuberunning.jpg


box running on my desk
desklightuv.jpg

and the same image with the lights off
deskdarkuv.jpg

here is the cube from the front, lights are off, with the UV going... the big fan becomes transparent like this, you can see the inside here.
cubefrontdarkuv.jpg

here is a closer shot of the cube with the UV going in the light.
cubelightuv.jpg

and the same images with the lights off...
cubedarkuv.jpg

and on image with the system running with all the UV lights off...
cubelight.jpg

Here is the inside... only the top hald of the front opens...
lightinside.JPG

and the UV look inside
uvinside.JPG


Specs are in my sig, the cube is small, 13 inches cubed, very cramped and i had to 'make it fit' with the light inverters but that was the price i paid for building it so small. If i were to build another case it would be a scoshe bit bigger.
 







peripherals are : 2005FPW,Logi G7 on a fUncpad F10.s Large,Logi X-530's and a G15 keyboard.
