New TJ-07 build

geordie56 · 7 Jun 2009 at 16:29

Hi guys i am just putting a few pics up of my case and asking any comments before i send it to be powder coated. I still have the motherboard tray to do but as you can see from pics i have cut the roof for a triple rad, drilled relevant holes in the base for the 2 laing 18w pumps and mounting brackets. I have mounted the Ek 250ml reservoitrs. I am now going to modify the motherboard tray. I have also drilled the base for the Quad rad.

Nice build. I'm too chicken to try watercooling my rig, sod's law I'll kill it doing so.

Thats what i thought mate but honestley it is a lot easier than you think, just take your time and check everything twice if unsure thats why this forums here if you have any questions. the last pic is my previous lian li build.

I wish i could have a kick ass set up like that with 3 screens.
Why did you buy another 360 rad as you already have two in your desk?

Would start by making hole for changing CPU heatsink's backplate without removing mobo.

Better to apply "think twice, do once"/"double checking" rules always.

Uhh... nearly getting headache from fuzziness of pics.

Im just on doing the motherboard now tray now and i have 2 more rads a quad and a 360 as this is a new build in a new case. The last pic is my previous build. The other pics are my new build in my TJ-07 case.

Looks pretty good, this case is one of the best to do watercooling in.There should be a sticker saying;watercooling only

.As i can see you are gonna go for dual-loop,yea?Do you wanna do 1 for graphic cards and one for the rest?

Haha, love that first photo!! The components take up an entire double bed

Looks like it should be a good build man. What colour powder you getting the case done in?

jawor121 · 8 Jun 2009 at 16:15

I bet it's gonna be black,nothing else would fit unless he wants to be creativ and make it colourful

Im still debating the colour, its either a hot candy pearlescent blue or hot candy pearl red either way white tubing and red or blue coolant to suit, with the drive bezels and rad grills in white.

I vote for "hot candy pearlescent blue" sounds amazing!

I was thinking of getting mine colour anodised, is it expensive?

Its around £170 including powder as it comes from the us, and includes all internals.

I vote for the Blue too! Looking forward to seeing this build. Good luck dude!
