Liquid Art: From Mini P180 to infinity...

Hi everyone,

Firstly apologies for not answering questions in my build thread! I haven't been back to look at this in a long long time.



As for the questions Something Else pretty much answered them for me since he knows my build quite well from start to finish :D




1. Why did you choose to use two 120mm rads instead of a single 240mm for the front? Which enermax fans are those?

As something else has said, i use to have a mini P180 which to fit a front rad i had to use 2 120mm rads. The fans i am using at the front are Enermax Clusters in white with the White LED's.

2. On the top on the top 120mm rad, where does the tubing go? It seems to disappear! Does it go up to the top rad on the right side of it?

The tubing goes round the back of the case hidden out of sight and connects to the other side of the Rad. This is because i am using a XFlow radiator so i have ports on both ends of the rad.

3. Is your pump in the out of sight area?

My pump is directly beneath my reservoir for best flow.

4. Which rads are those?

Front 2 rads are EK 120mm thick rads and top rad is a Black ICE GT stealth Xflor 240mm rad

5. Which pump are you using?

I am using a Swiftech DDC 1T pump rated at 18w i believe.


I will get a close up tonight for you no problem :)

Hope this helps

Just to update, i have switched out the top 2 fans for Corsair AP fans now for higher flow since the old enermax's didn't seem to push much air through them.
 
Thanks very much for your answers! I await the pictures :)

Also, 2 more things :) :

1. I have some cluster fans like yours, but they came with these weird rubber fittings and screws which don't fit; how did you fit them and maintain a clean look?

2. Have you seen that Corsair released a new version of its AF fans which now have leds? I'm sure that when they release the SP version they would look great in your build :p

I went out and bought longer radiator screws with a bigger head so they would sit nicely in the hole indentations on the case. You need to becareful though not to get too longer screws as they can puncture the radiator.

I have not, but it seems interesting! Will consider getting some if they do it in a variety of colours to match my theme :)



Here are the pictures you requested:










Hope this helps :)
 
Oh yeah! I forgot Parvum put my thread up on their project logs section!


Thanks Ocmanus, I know this thread is abit jumbled up with all previous builds mixed in as well. I should sort it out really...



There has been no real updates since my last one except another 8gb of Corsair Dominator Platinum Ram. Does look the boss though with the faint LED's!



 
UPDATE!


SLI GTX 680!


Thanks to Cypto today, I'm finally going SLI. Done some testing and performance is sweeeeet! Loving the extra grunt! Would love to put this card under water as well though but not having much luck finding a identical Waterblock.

May need to pick your brains when it comes to modding it m8 :)

Feel free to ask me questions mate. I might be joining you shortly in the mini series groupie! Haha! Lots of mods you can do like window mod, removing center ledge mod so you can fit radiators. Even the top 5'25" inch bay can be modded out for other stuff if needed. What i do love on the case though is the amount of space at the back of the case! You can fit so much cabling in there!!
 
Thinking of getting some Corsair LED AF fans in the front and a fan controller in the the bottom like you had before. also thinking about adding a USB3 bay.
 
Ah the new LED AF fans look really nice! Shame they don't do it on the AP series fans. What fan controller are you gonna get? Got anything in specific in mind? :)
