Anyone have any pictures?

This is the case that I'm talking about:

I'm trying to think of the best way to fit my system in there... I'm not totally ruling out buying some new parts... any pictures of how you watercooled your yeong yang would be greatly appreciated
 
I recently did mine up, no pics yet as it's not complete.

Used Innovatek components. Tankomatic reservoir on the mobo side, CPU/NB/GPU WC'd. 12v pump and their dual 120mm rad on the drive bay side. Also have 2 optical drives, 2 3.5" bay goodies, and 4 HDs on that side. It's nice and roomy :)

I did mine in sort of a stealthy fashion... the radiator is not flush with the top/bottom/side of the case. I have it sitting horizontally above the PSU. I fabbed up a shroud that uses the 80mm fan hole for the fresh air.

Great case for this kind of stuff.

Would like to see some pics when you get time! :)
 
I'm very interested in pics too!

I have a single 120 rad right now, and i dont know where i should put it, in the mobo side or on the drive side, hell i dont know where i should put any of these components!

All i know is the block goes on the cpu
 
Hrmmm it's nothing fantastic, but I was hoping for a grander unveiling. Maybe I'll just take some pics of the guts, no big deal :)

I would definitely toss it on the drive side. There mobo side is roughly as wide as a 120mm fan (a little wider, obviously, as you can mount a 120mm there). My favorite part of this case is it's ability to hide the uglier bits... the side that faces me (mobo side) is super clean (imho), thanks to the little access hole that routes the wiring to the other side.

There's a lot of options depending on how comfy you are with a dremel.
 
argh! now I cant remember the guy who has the cube case watercooling setup...all I remember is it was very sweeet :)
 
I know I've seen one or two in the [H] gallery and run across one or two at watercooling dot com in the galleries there. I tried it myself and was very unhappy with the results. The YY-0221 (or whatever it's model number is) is really pretty from the outside but I hated working with it.

I ended up gutting my YY and putting everything into a LL PC-75. I've since torn apart the YY case and used it's parts to mod others.
