Parvum Systems Project Magnus

[Mole.]

Two loops! Two coolant colours. The theory is 360mm, 240mm & 240mm for GPUs. Then 240mm, 240mm & 240mm for the CPU, Mobo & RAM.
Should be suitably overkill.

That's more than overkill, that's insane!

Love it, awesome looking build

Hey,
You may have answered this already but I couldn't see it scrolling through.
This is a prototype, to get feedback for a final product. Will the final product be available from Overclockers UK? (I'm assuming yes but doesn't hurt to ask)
Also is the timescale for a final product feb/march 14? or later?

Is the white XSPC AX360 rads going to be available or were they special treatment? (I quickly trawled through the thread for the answer but I didn't see it)

Scratch that, I was just looking a supplier who didn't have them. I have found them elsewhere

OCUK sell them

OcUK is the primary stockist for XSPC in the EU

you dont need to look elsewhere

more tube

Sponsors/Support:

Hi folks!

Will let the photos talk. Managed to hook up the second GPU and the 240mm rad at the back. Basically 90% of the hard line work done now which means we can really start to speed things up here:

Decided to use acrylic tube to connect GPUs as we've used a lot of it. Thought the XSPC connecting system may have looked out of place:

Another pretty wild tubing run:

Hello third GPU; nice to see you:

Also connected up the back 240mm rad:

Will be a fuller update soon. Sorry for the small ones

Those thin rads going to cope with those 3 cards? Looks awesome as usual. You should do build videos showing how you set up all the tubing.

those rads might be thin(ish) but he has 6 of them, 13 fans worth of rads *drool*

they are also really good tbh, i have them in my build

AX series radiators are one of the best performance radiators on the market.

They will perform really well, look again at the images and you can see the dense FPI of the cores.

you can see the dense FPI of the cores.

With such fin density, are there any fans you'd recommend/recommend staying away from?

As people have already cleared up you probably missed the 4 x 240mm radiators, a pair hiding each in the top and bottom chambers of the case. Should be plenty. Ok I'll try and get a video up

With such fin density, are there any fans you'd recommend/recommend staying away from?

I'd just grab anything that can move a lot of air really. I wouldn't say the fans I choose are 'perfect' but I had so many rads it wasn't as much of an issue to run fans pushing less air etc.
The more FPI the more that''ll help dissipate the heat but the denser that rad will become. You'll just need to be sure you've got something that can smash a nice amount of air though the dense fins

I think I'll just go with gentle typhoons. Did a quick ask about, they look simple enough to recolour.
I was just asking to see if there were fans I'd not thought about that could be recommended, you have to keep colour schemes top priority

 

[GiraffePencils]

Hey, any updates? even if its just a text post of idea/saying you're busy.

No one wants to get to the end of a build like this and see me talking about painting fans

Milling custom parts & more braid

Sponsors/Support:

Back with another update:

First up we draw... powered by Monster Energy!

A little while later the CNC can start the job. 5mm frosted clear acrylic. Tooling for this job 3mm single flute and 2.5mm single:

Understand this is a test for what will next be cut in the 25mm thick block I showed some updates ago:

At the time of photography the O Rings had not turned up. However they have now and I can let you know we are fitting no problems. We will cut the 25mm next.

Time to smarten up the D5's; XSPC pump tops and MDPC braid:

Next a small make over for the fans. Grabbed some little fan stickers from Nate over at E22. Nate has helped out as and when he can and was a great guy when we met him. Sadly we don't get to see enough of him. He has also sent us a few other useful things that finish this build nicely:

Before:

After:

Simple indeed but so necessary.

Braided the molex to mini-sata. Wasn't sure if there was a better option for this but needed something to power the slot loader so these seemed sufficient:

Next task was to make some kind of mount for both the bumps. A lot of people ask why we don't use other materials such as aluminum wood etc. For the most part anything we do cut we wait and cut while we are already cutting that colour of acrylic. For example we cut these frosted clear parts when we had to cut frosted accents for a customers case. It's realistically the most feasible way of getting a project log done while not interfering with to much of our workload.

We need something to sit on please:

You can sit on me!?

OK thanks:

Some little fix ups on the sata cables:

So that's all for the update this time around. Lot of small bits but they all have to be done so please stick with us!

I will leave you with a couple of photos from the Multiplay Insomnia i50 LAN event. Any questions please ask:

Thanks for reading. Please ask questions and leave your opinions!

 

[GiraffePencils]

Wow, I should ask for updates more often

Great looking stuff, really clean look of the fans now.

Love the mount of the pumps, how does it do for noise dampening?

I'd never thought of the acrylic cutting being done when that colour was already being cut, makes perfect sense.

I couldn't go to Multiplay, no time and build's in pieces both in my head and my floor, nothing worth showing people

 

[davido_labido]

my computer (nice shooping skills btw ) chilling next to your V, the amount of people who asked me about it whilst your mate wasnt there was insane, i think you need to put it for general sale!!!

Was great to see you lads again!

Also those pump stands are a great idea, when i do a dual pump loop, expect a little email

 

[joelk2]

great update and i50 looks like it was great fun.

do you have a build log for the the V? looks lovely and interested in the lighting you have going on in there.

 

[joelk2]

also what is the qpad headset like?

 

[davido_labido]

i think the V*** is still in the "exclusive" stages at the moment (hense the stars ) , im sure when its used for its intended purpose though, it will have a build log popped up, which i will be looking at, the kit inside that small case is insane!!!
