Thanks for the compliment, however I hate my current camera and I seriously need to get a new one.

I love your photographs - you're clearly in a completely different league to me. Nice build too - what is the case you are working with?

Air cooled or water cooled? Its not particularly well suited to water cooling but It can be done with a bit of faffing about. Easiest if you don't need the hard drive cages.

They do look so neat once finished tho

adi518 · 21 Jan 2013 at 13:36

LC'd ofc. No need for those cages indeed. Get yourself a 2/3tb hdd, tuck it in the himuro and you're done storage-wise. Optical drives? Obsolete. If I ever need it, I just plug my slim, portable dvd-rw and I'm good to go.

Water' nothing will stop me and my dremel

adi518 · 21 Jan 2013 at 19:02

You don't even need a dremel to set this up. The only power tool I used so far on the case, is my drill (to take out some rivets).

blitz_911 · 21 Jan 2013 at 23:00

Mine is my media server so I haute a few of my old hard drives in it. The only thing I regret in my loop design is that because the res is at the top the whole loop is at the top rather than spread aroun the case

Tokin · 21 Jan 2013 at 23:39

It's not about needing to use it,Im just addicted !

adi518 · 22 Jan 2013 at 00:15

I added a 2nd 670 ftw today... from a friend's upcoming project, just for testing. The added power is quite insane.

Love the case I use a XL version and its impressive. Photo's are great btw.

I've got say i really do love mdpc braid, so nice. Good job by the way.

The 3rd Define R4 build I have seen today, looking forward to yours.

adi518 · 22 Jan 2013 at 22:09

"Old" FC-680 arrived from OCUK:

Beautiful, beautiful block!

Also great news, HWLabs is sending me a new radiator, this time a GTS 360.
I decided to ditch the original fan module and construct something totally independent. My current vision involves with 3x 1900rpm NB eLoop fans to be mounted on that rad.

Steviepunk · 22 Jan 2013 at 22:13

photography is fantastic!

I wouldn't have thought you could make wires look sexy, but you have

Looking forward to seeing more of your work

Cleaned the io shield and boy it wasn't easy! One of the stickers was wrapped around the wifi module.. took me an hour to take it off haha.. used my tweezers.
