You notice they don't have any hoseclamps(metal or nylon) in their first pic? Hehehehe. Take that mobile you better cross your fingers each time you power it up.
 
Or you could do the same thing yourself and save about $100-$150
 
Yeah, I know you can do it yourself..I was just showing people because it shows a good way to watercool your x-qpack. I like the reservoir in the floppy drive spot.
 
As anyone attempted to put a fan on one of the sides of the x-qpack? I was wondering if it would work it if the fan would get caught on the support bars.
 
Looks okay I guess. Then agian I'm using VNC in 8 bit mode :/

Im going for the fully self contained WC setup since the case will fit it and i need to shave as much space as i can.

its pissible, but you wouldn't be able to use the last PCI slot if you did.. its a tight fan man

yeah, but when pulling the case top off the fan would come with it...I am wondering if it will hit that bar and not come off. I realize that you coiuld probably take it off at an angle to try and get it off but will it bend that much?

Right, you can get one of those "thin" 60mm or 80mm fans and put on there, then you really wouldn't have to bend it that much.
 
or mount it on the top of the case instead of the side, i think there should b enough room where the psu isnt there, not too sure. then u wouldnt have the problem of hitting anything when taking off the top, cuz it doesnt pass any of the bars.

No, there isn't enough room to mount an 80mm fan in the top window without cutting into the metal itself, which would look kind of retarded.
 
I wonder what that would look like with the 16cm radiator attached.
 
pssshh..looks like a waste of money to me. Anyone who even dabbles in modding could watercool an x-qpack for 100 bucks less.
 
if u havent bought a qpack yet but you know you're going to tho, theres non-windowed versions for sale, there should b more colors soon, right now the only version is the silver face one w/ no windows. then u could add windows on ur own if u want to, its not that hard. and cutting a blowhole in the top wouldnt look retarded cuz then the whole things metal, theres no border of materials to go over.
 
They have the fan sucking in..........blowing all that heat right back into your case........fighting the natural airflow................wouldn't be too hard to reverse the fan though. Also, that pump is sitting right where the ATX power connector goes on the Jetway ATI board. That price also looks like it doesn't include any water blocks, only the rad, pump, and reservoir.
 
What radiator is that and does it come with taht circular shroud for inbetween the fan and the rad?
 
im not saying anyone should buy this thing...by all means dont..just order a swiftech system and buy a shroud. Maybe a small floppy resevoir or something to go wtih it. The pump is small and can probably go anywhere, so I wiouldn't worry to much about that.

Well. then you need to specify what case you were asking about, I thought you were talking about the current supply of X-QPAcks, the windowed versions.
