ATX in Silverstone's ITX RVZ 03- ***full water and dual 240's ??

Down work tools and pick up modding tools!


Would a spare LED strip add enough interest around the rad/vent?

/suspects you have them hanging off your shirt arms like tassels - use one one those :D

will replace RGB one that came at the front of the case with Aorus ARGB strip ;)

Okay, managed to Cut the gap two allow airflow for second fan on the 240 Rad !

Silverstone 120mm magnetic filters will hide the rough cuts due to them having a thick boarder :)

I still need to cut out the spokes on the original vent opening to limit all restrictions and sound oscillation. And then 4 holes !

I wanted to have fans in Pull config as Static pressure if not key factor but Airflow.. unfortunately will have to be in Push config =/
 
also, what pump/res/block are you going to use?

Reusing the lowprofile Eisbear or Bequiet silent loop pump.
Have 3600rpm pump to swap around but will see about that afterwards as it does make some noise over the standard 2600rpm version .

Seems 20mm TX rads from xspc blow the water out of EKWB SE 27mm and Alphacools 25mm Eisbaer LT rad so fingers crossed .

Seems Silverstone low profile actually have double the static pressure of Noctua and others so don't mind Push config
 
@Plec @tamzzy

going to be tight !

will have to take some snap shots with top panel removed - but DAMN! hoping few alphacool 90s i have will work, if not 90 rotate with 10/8mm compression .
Currently with cans in Push - will in pull, would give more height clearance but loop would have to run in simi circle, top and bottom .

really not looking forward to filling up this loop! Unfortunately silverstone SLIM AIO EOL and not sure that it would handle 12+ ryzen or 10+ intel cores
 
WAHAY!!! I get wiped out by a weird ass tropical illness for a month (@tamzzy - that fever i was ignoring a few weeks ago(?) - turns out i shouldn't have - the wife was right, but she can ever know; dangerous precedence.) and Damien MK II is born.

Plus, I can't help but notice a complete lack of photo updates to this mod thread - apart from a masterly off topic nearly 9lb painful passing for Mrs Orbi - OUCH!!!.

Congratulations, Orbi & new'ish Mum - wish i had been compos mentus when you announced it but really pleased to read that you have third healthy addition to the Orbital clan.

/Whispers: @tamzzy brexit is conveniently delayed - now's the time to make use of those unrestricted borders before he can breed anymore...

damn! I was banned , 2 weeks! and blocked from a thread or two! Just been a bit hectic with the 3rd and wife's recovery being slower then we though- picked up an infection =/

needing to cut the side panel still so will see if i can do that soon-ish !
 
@Plec will be interesting for Intel x299x boards and CPU,s since per core they are priced better then z390 9th gens - but if resellers will actually sell them at face value... hard to be seen. Pricing of x299x to TRX40 boards will be like B450 entry to X570 Mainstream flagships (£90 vs £300 - but then triple it haha). Intel could strike or at least stop marketshare loss with being a lot cheaper! in theory along with 2133hz


Banned? Who got banned? And for what?
me :D
 
What in the Blue Hell did you say to get banned from that sub forum?

pretty much as @Plec summed up haha

aye- someone has to push the Intel so to push ryzen spec's along reason behind it :)

least OCUK finally got Micron E ram @tamzzy :) bit slow behind their German owners though .

looking forward to getting this build at least in a running state ! not going to be to pushing but to get a 240 water loop , atx board an triple slot GPU into 14-15ltr console case = a happy bunny :D

would love to push Silverstone into making newer version of this case to take on likes of Sliger and custom SFF cases that cost 4 times as much!
 
reasons why to triple check placement. could have and should have dropped the bottom grill by 10-15mm , but least the GPU is exposed and should be supplied with some nice clean air !
Also moved 10mm to the left as well - lessons learnt (also dont cut in work clothes , ended up stinking out the office smelling of burnt metal)

some rough cuts and a little bit lazy to fully polish off the cuts so..... silverstones 140mm and 120mm will be sandwiched between the Grill and the panel . Should hide the cuts and the boards of the filter is quite thick so one of the reasons why the cut hasn't been to the grill vent limits , plus it keeps panels rigidity a bit higher

@tamzzy

hot a snag ! im 3mm too taller with the Silent Loop version of Alphacools Eisbaer LT , since the ports are at the top . would have worked if fans were in push and not pull config but then I cant get the Rad ports plumbed in... so... LT needs to be ordered !!!!

annoying is can get alphacool on trade but £10 delivery over 3 days and min order value with delivery has to be £66 odd... =/

these are 11/8mm fittings. 13/10 i normally use should be fine as well (10 inner diameter matches the g1/4 bore size )

mmm wondering if a full 25mm silent wing 3 fan can replace the left 15mm silverstone fan...

@Plec couldnt resist a cheeky email to alphacool, see if i could grab an eisbaer LT off them and.... aorus GPU block... figured that in theory, with 4mm to spare could slap on a 25mm GPU block and another XSPC 240/20.5mm rad with another 2x (120x15mm) silverstone fans for a fuller watercooled system, with 480 rad space in 16 litres!

No money shot!

Well, you've 'edged ' us this far we can hold on for another day or so :p

More importantly, will it pass wifey approval when all the finer aesthetics are ironed out?

few self notes. GPU warms up quickly. slightly solved with Turning Nvidia power plan to adaptive form Max power . Also hoping with dual 120's and 92mm at the bottom the Positive pressure will exhaust hot air out quickly !

Plec I think it still might end up hidden away! doesn't help its black but not white but can't complain as it was sponsored :)

Got a crazy urge to......... WATER COOL the GPU and add ANOTHER 240mm slim XSPC rad in !!! Current the height of the Shroud is 55mm. Id say there's 6mm gap between the shroud and the case panel . The rad is 20.5mm thick, fan is 15mm and then slimmest GPU block is 19mm from Phanteks .

(55+6)- (20.5-15-19)=5.0-6.5mm clearence
