Antec 902 v4

[Jimmy_Vendetta]

Hello there , this is more of a what ive done so far before i rebuild it into another case ,

I bought this pc for a deal off ebay , It was 600 pounds a year ago ,
i sold the Cpu /Gpu/Mobo/Ram for 590 , so it had left me with a case, 2 Raptors, Xfx 850w psu , G19 keyboard, and G9x mouse., not bad for 10 pounds!

I rebuilt it with
i5 2500k
Asus Maximus Gene z
Nvidia 580 Msi
16gb Vengeance

The i bought a watercooling set up ebay , of some really decent dude
2x Ek supreme lts
Laing d5 with Dual XSPC Res
120mm x2 Hardware Labs Black/Blue Ice Gt Stealth *didnt use the blue
240mm Black Ice GT Stealth
280mm Thermochill rad i think *never used it
a bunch of fittings
all for 100 pounds


I then cut a custom window as that was the one thing i HATED about the case , added 8 Coolermaster Fans and

Picture off for a idea of Cable management etc

So then i thought i wanted a new desk and few things
so here came a new desk and a Point of View 670 Watercooled beast . and a 120gb SSD

and here it is Finished as i left it ,but i felt i needed a little more cooling

So Spec is
Monitors 2x ASUS VE247H , 1 32inch Sony Bravia LED Tv
Keyboard and Mouse : G19 and G9x
Case: Antec 902 v3
i5 2500k @4.5
16 GB Vengeance 1600 mhz
Asus Maximus Gene Z
Point of View 670 gtx Watercooled Beast
2 x 1TB HDD's (WD and seagate) Exturnal Storage
120 GB OCZ Sata 3 SSD
160gb Raptor for Games

Watercooling components:

EK Supreme Lt block
240mm Black Ice GT Stealth
120mm Black Ice GT Stealth
White UV Tubing
EK-PSC nickel Compression fittings 10mm (G 1/4") - 8 in total
XSPC Dual Res
Laing D5

FANS:

8 x Cooler Master 12cm SickleFlow System Fan Blue
1 x 200mm Fan for Exhaust



So i was happy with that , Was on a bit of a mad one , and bought a Tv bed to replace my old one , its a superking bed with a mount for a 32inch tv , so i went and got a 32 inch Bravia LED tc , and connected it to my Pc via HDMI

I have a wireless keyboard with a trackpad for when im lazying in bed , The tv and monitor 1 are the same , and monitor 2

So now my v4 version, I have ordered so new parts to build a clean looking build


Alphacool NexXxos XP3 Light Universal CPU Waterblock, i saw a review someone did off 10 blocks and this came on top , a much higher flow rate and just thought it might improve temps


Cooler Master CM 690 II Advanced Mid Tower Chassis Case , its bigger , and i think it will look a lot neater , ive gone for the black and white


Hardware Labs Black Ice GT Stealth 240mm , so i can mount another 240mm in the case

and another 2 coolermaster fans , i will have picture updates in the new week when parts come in , will upgrade to a 2tb HDD to replace the 160 , will have a lot more and a lot better pics ,
Enjoy

Nice spec's but please sort out that tubing, some 45 degree rotaries would do wonders!

 

[Jimmy_Vendetta]

You think that help? , my temps seem pretty low atm , I notice a lot of other builds do use them

 

[iB CoMpL3XiTy]

Well you'd use less tubing if you had some rotaries and that may cut down on the temps ever so slightly, maybe a degree or two but I would personally want to make it look neater. Just my two pence, everyone has there preference on aesthetics.

Temps?

 

[Jimmy_Vendetta]

Processor Idle/load @4.3 34-38 45-50
Gpu 18-25 30-35
Motherboard 21-23 24-28

Ive since moved it into a Coolermaster 690 Advanced II

Added another 240mm Rad and got a alphacool cpu block.

Just curious, why did you loop the tubing from the rear Rad to the GPU all the way around another tube? You could have just ran it directly without the big loop

Still pretty sweet though
