New build that should get interesting. I hope you enjoy.

Here's the goods.

Case:
Corsair 800d (Yes another one.)

Cooling:
2x TFC 360's
1x TFC 240
2x D5's
1x EK Duel D5 top with 140mm Res
1x EK Supreme HF
2x Koolance 5870 GPU Blocks
1x Koolance mobo block
Lots of compression fittings
10x Delta 3300rpm fans
Some UN goodness. Thanks Dave!:up:

Hardware:
I7 930
EVGA Classiffied 760
6GB Corsair Dominators
2x XFX 5870's
X-fi Titanium sound card
Dual layer DVD burner
WD 640Gb Black HDD
1200 watt Topower Powertrain PSU

All of the cooling will be internal including the 3 rads. The rads may be changed to 2x 480's and a 360.

I have some other parts I have to order and some on the way.

Started taking the case down.

I got the HDD bays out.

I still have some more to do. The mid plate has to come out to be replaced.

But here are the rads that are going in.

Also, I have a sweet ass bracket for the dual D5 pumps. I had this bracket custom made for this build. It's in the raw I have to get it plated.

A big thanks to Dave @ UN Designs. He did a hell of a job.:up:

Hopefully I can get alot of the case prep knocked out this weekend.
 
That custom pump bracket is pretty cool. Looking forward to the rest of the build.

Any particular reason for the hefty psu?

The amount of fans and the pumps + the hardware itself and I will OC the shit out of this as well is why I have a 1200w PSU. Plus it gives me some head room.

Curious to see where the rads are going to fit. Looks like fun!

Alot of people are curious about the rads as well. All will see in time.:p

Thanks
 
Here's a small update. This will give you a good idea of where this is going.

The case is gutted for the most part.

I did some measuring and mock ups so I can start fabricating and cutting.

The PSU is going to move up to the front. I used a fried PSU I had laying around for the mock up.

The bottom will be dedicated to rad space. I decided I would make the bottom flexible to fit either 240, 360 or 480 rads. I will also make a new midplate and mounting brackets for the rads as well.

Stay tuned.:up:

Still trying to obtain some more parts for this build. I need to get my hands on 3 480 rads and some other things.:shakes:

Looks like it's going to be a powerhouse, i'll keep an eye on this project :)
 
Im assuming your just gonna blow air straight through? Pretty cool idea, i was kinda thinking the same kinda idea a while back when i was looking at another case, never thought about it on the 800d. Cant wait to see your results ;)
