[holeyguy66]

i decided to make a thread devoted to this insted of updating my others ill just keep editing the post to add the pics.

while im waiting to put it back together decidsed to cut the metal floor that devideds the upper and lower part of the chassis to maybe get some better air flow to the air cooled parts and try to manage the cables better

now the fun stuff

still waiting on some other parts to start puttng it together so ill keep adding as i get more stuff in. right now im at a stand still til i get pad tomorrow

Sweet GPU, your specs are totally insane.

 

[holeyguy66]

[MVLS CROWNZ]

take your time, no need to rush your masterpiece!

 

[holeyguy66]

so i have considered replacing my res setup for a dual bay stand alone. i am going to add a pump at the bottom of the chassis. maybe something like this since the fill port is on the front

or maybe this one since it has a tep sensor built in

and running a pump and res like this at the bottom of my case to add more volume

 

[stupreme]

All of them look pretty sweet . Also I like the frozenQ reservoirs - especially the T-Virus

 

[holeyguy66]

yea the frozen q's are awesome but i cant use them as the color of my fluid wont pass light its almost like milk thats the fluid fresh from being drained.

 

[stupreme]

oooo - The Ice Dragon , I bought Mayhem's Aurora (Oringilla) - partly because of the name and because of the effect it give's the tubing

 

[holeyguy66]

the aurora is that the stuff that looks like shampoo in the coolant? if so be careful that stuff is mainly for show and you have to stay on top of it as it will settle in the tank after awhile. ive read up on alot of mayhems dyes and stuff before i finished my last loop.http://www.mayhems.co.uk/front/aurora-guide.html#.UY-8yqKsiSo but it does look cool.. i am thinking of using a dye before im done. between red and green

i think the green will be to bright but since my fluid is well milk it might show up a little pastelish. but the red would be a deep blood redish

 

[stupreme]

Hahaha - Has to be Blood Red , Thanks for the tip on the coolant , your right - it does settle , it like there's two different density's in it and when you fire up your rig they mix into a shampoo effect. looks nice though.

 

[holeyguy66]

the thing that has me on the fence about dyes is 9-12 months you are supposed drain and replace the coolant and dye as the dye will settle also. my fluid with no dyes i didnt have to maintain my loop. guys have been getting 3 years with out maintaining there system. so im a little on the fence about the dyes still. but if your gonna stick with the aurora coolant later on i would add an external res that will lay flat on the bottom of your case that way when you open your case up you see it there also. ill post a link to the type of res im talking bout when i get home

 

[MattyB]

Hey Holeyguy, have you ever opened up your CPU liquid cooling? I'm thinking it would look better with some clear tubing and dye. I want to keep the unit stock except for a slight visual change. I just don't want to mess it all up.

 

[holeyguy66]

matty you talking about the stock cooler. no i havent. i know the radiator on those are sealed and the liquid is contained withing the radiator tubing and pump. i think if you could open it and change things it would look cool. but how would you fill it after the mods are done. on the other hand if you wanna make it stock looking you could always buy an after market res pump and block and make a very clean cpu loop only. you could run system fane with an after market radiator with another push fan and go from there.
