Corsair 600T watercooled build: "Blue Dragon"

So in theory the same method you used in cooling should work pretty well in my skeleton. I had an idea of doing the same thing gpu did, making a spot in the heatsink for the gpu block, but also botching the plastic cover to let the tubes go in and out so that I may still attach the original fan. Do you think that is a possibility as well?

Yep, definitely possible I think. Mind you, with the block in there the airflow would be completely obstructed. Wouldn't take much cutting though as once you remove the LED module, I think there's enough space there for the fittings to come out.

I'm using 45deg fittings on the GPU block as the edge of the bare metal panel is lipped, but you can easily file the lip off and use straight fittings.




Awesome build, but you got negative airflow there you got 1 out rest intake :o.

You mean positive pressure? Positive pressure is generally considered better for both dust and cooling: http://www.silverstonetek.com/techtalk_cont.php?tid=wh_positive&area=usa. Now though the three side fans are all out-take. Should still be positive as I have 7 intake, 4 out-take, + dust filters top and front.

Just one problem. That device you were using to measure, is, in actual fact, a RULE.
:p

Lol thanks...will keep in mind :p.

Joxang, what's the volume of the reservoir you're using?

I think it's a 150 mate.

What's the next project your working on?

Got some bits at the lasercutters...will post when they're back ;). I've decided not to do any more work on this one (mebbe a video) because the ideas I have for the case would necessitate taking the whole thing apart again. Would rather start again, complete a case in advance before building in it. Anyway...will see what happens :).
 
But these are what I've been waiting for. Well, just one of them, but the guy who did the lasercutting had to delay making them so I guess he made two to make up for it :p.





And finally got a name for the build now. It's going to be called 'Blue Dragon' :).

I have a question to OP. I've been eyeing this thread for awhile, and while I know you mentioned that there is only 55mm of room, 25 for the fans, and 30 for the radiator, how exact is this? The Magicool 360 Elegant Radiator is 34mm thick, any chance that there is 4 mm of extra room in there?

thanks! I'm looking forward to your progress!
