Coffee table build

[Staffy50]

You could still straighten out the tubing a bit, so its not bending all over the place. Looks good still though mate.

looking good. what colours you gonna use for the coolant? it might distract from the films!

That is looking really good - I am interested to see more photos as this progresses.

Really good looking build, very interested to see the finished article should be great.

I bought blue UV coolant from EK, I also bought a some UV hose to replace the B&Q stuff I dry fitted with.

Also how would I straighten the pipe unless it was pinned to the case?

 

[T.F.S.]

Just need a few more wires/new hose/coolant/power switch to be fitted and we are done, I fitted the sides back on and mounted the radiators, gave the UV led strips a test run.

Really like the look of the project.

I think by straight pipe he means the stiff piping which you heat up and bend to the shape you require.

The progress looks great.

Nice, is that carbon fibre vinyl wrap ?. Looking very good

 

[T.F.S.]

It is yes.

Just some more pics, I added another graphics card so it runs 2x r9 290

Looking great, lots of space for adding more bits if you wanted at later date.
My SSD's suck, so i hide them lol

Sorry if i missed the info, from the pics it looks like the right side is air inflow (pull) & on the left is the out (Push),
are you using any other fans for inflow or air vents?

im using 6x120mm fans for desk inflow & 2xRADs with all 6 fans pushing out.
the temps are great but if i could remove the 6x inflows and swap one RAD to inflow that would save some space, - 6 fans & help save the planet

 

[T.F.S.]

It's a blow through system so three in and three out, in the center of the table you see a grilled area which just allows air to pass through, the air is drawn over the top of the cylindrical reservoirs which in turn also aids cooling.

There are other holes in the case but this is just to allow wires to drop down into the area below so they are hidden from view.

i need one of these in my life

 

[T.F.S.]

It was an easy build, only a jigsaw and drill needed in the tool department.

I have been running the CPU and cards at 100% for literally hours on end (with FAH programme) and even in warm weather it tops out at 60c on the watercooled card and processor, the processor temp changed to max of 80c when I fitted the fan cooled card to the motherboard because of convection heating, the fan cooled card runs at 92c and dumps a load of heat into the MB.

The pics really do not do it justice, When I get pics of it fitted into the new room it should look a lot better than in the pics above.
