Well, at it again. My son's modded Antec 300 
Ended up winning 2nd place in a recent case mod contest at a LAN we attended. The prize was a DD WC starter kit. The judges said it was nearly even between my son's and another build, but he was WC sooooo...2nd for us. Kinda glad getting 2nd because 1st prize was a DD Case. I don't need ANOTHER case. Ok, nuff bout that. This build will be using the DD kit (and some other items I added to it) with the same [H]ardware but in a new case. The CM 690 is the one I am using this time, as it was ALSO won at the LAN as a door prize. (made out great this go round 
)
Plans for this one....kinda a reverse theme of the Antec. White chassis and screens with a bright red exterior. Custom painting the DVD and multi function fan controller/ mem reader. The fan controller/usb/mem reader was ALSO won @ the LAN. (first person who can cause a BSOD----> TOO DANG EZ!!! ) Using Feser Red UV coolant, a custom red acrylic DD TDX block, DD 5 1/4 single rezzy, a little CPX1 pump with a bottom mounted Black Ice Pro rad.
BTW, you pro WC guys, take a look at the loop and let me know if the order looks ok. This is my 1st WC project so I could use some expert opinions. ( my goals with this loop will have nothing to do with serious OC'ing. The CPU is a E8400 and runs 44-70ish @ 4.0ghz now under a Zalman 9500 so appearances are a bit more important than gettin a few Cs less in temps. The bottom mount rad can be either intake or exhaust, but it is setup now for intake. I know it will exhaust the hot air INTO the case, but there will be a pair of 120s up top as exhaust, a 120 intake up front and lastly a 120 exhaust in the rear. I'm thinkin my internal temps will be fine with all the airflow going on. Like I said, opinions are welcome.
