IVIYTH0S Posted September 7, 2013 Posted September 7, 2013 Another fan of your fans haha, I used to run Ultra Kazes with my old TRUE on my Core2Quad system nice how loud did they getNot too loud, since I had a fan controller and had the speed set to the absolute lowest they'd spin up at. Sooooo quiet and they still cooled amazing, full blast didn't seem to help appreciably. I'm guessing their massive 38mm style might have a part to play in their multitalented ways.

wutdo Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 Sponsored Bygot some time over the weekend to get some more work done. decided against the single back seperatorand have gone for 2 with a mini cave in the middle looks a lot nicer provides that little bit more room.have been trying to decide whether to add another reservior (or 2) behind and under the main reserviornot sure how it will look guess once i paint the new deviders and get the top on will make a decision.and for the photos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wutdo Posted September 22, 2013 Posted September 22, 2013 Sponsored Byfinally have time to post some more details about the build, top of the desk is pretty much completejust have a couple of holes to drill for the watercooling tube and knock up the base, i had a fiddlearound with the fridge idea during the week and came to the conclusion that was stupid enough to evenconsider it... didn't pan out but no problem as the 2 radiators will easily be enough for the rig.got round to cleaning the dust and crap out of the desk and wipe it down i was actually quite impressedhow well it came up... now all that's left is new temp sensor displays (wanted red got blue) and alsoa 2nd reservoir to mount with the pump as a fill-port for the whole thing.

wutdo Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Sponsored Byfinally had some time Monday to get a little work done on the build, firstly i finished mounting the LED's and UV Tubes,and have had time to get one of the radiators mounted along with the power supply/s (one on display) and have got most ofthe tubing in ready to mount the Mobo just have to get around to finishing the base for it and drag it back inside to setit all up.. didn't take into account the size of the doorsLED's after i fixed the switch problem that burnt out one of the cables... lack of sleep does thatThe Red Temp sensors finally arrived got them in looks far better over the blue ones. thinking of using them on the next buildPower Supply Fit in wasn't sure how it would look but it looks better than having nothing in that gap Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wutdo Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 Sponsored Byhi all sorry for the lengthy time this project has taken unfortunately work commitments get in the way offree time. just a quick update finally finished setting up the water loop, and have one of the 2 Motherboardsin. will have the glass top arrive sometime in the next 2 weeks and maybe even decide to buy a RevoDrive 3x2 240gbfor the C drive on the main workstation even though i have had some bad luck with the RevoDrives in the past.. 3different cards all failed within 6 months of use.. the original RevoDrive, RevoDrive 2 and RevoDrive 3.here's some shots of the motherboard and cpu water-block installedand potentially where the SSD drives will lay out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wutdo Posted November 10, 2013 Posted November 10, 2013 Sponsored ByFinally got some time to get the first computer up and running in the desk got the GPU water-block attachedand getting some nice temps under idle around 25-29 GPU and 35-45 CPU under full load jumps up to 39/40for the GPU and around 60 for the CPU with a light overclock to 4.3Ghz for now but only have the fansattached to one radiator as i realised i ordered the wrong length screws for the 38mm thick fans.The GPU board. it doesn't look like much when you take the stock cooler offHad a problem with the Water-block Not sitting flat over the GPU so after removing the block and putting it back oni forgot the back plate...Some low temps should be good for a decent OCand finally what happens when you forget to clean the inside of your case for 2 months Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wutdo Posted November 11, 2013 Posted November 11, 2013 Sponsored ByManaged to get time to mount the HDD's for the First Computer and had time to get some photosAlso just realised that the UV lights have stopped working but few photos with the rest of the lights onUnfortunately found out during the weekend that the glass for the top has still not been made as the Glazier has been on leavebut hoping that they work something out.Hopefully over the weekend i will have time to install the Server and replace the UV lights and maybe get a light to put directly behind the Reservoir to illuminate the Blood Red Die as i noticed that it does not react to the UV light.. even thoughthe containers state that it does Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
