fitted bottom RAD on custom-ish stand

P1000340.jpg


not a bad start but still got a lot more to do..

lian-li bezel for DVD drive.
Custom front plate including Red LED mount.
mounting of both Pumps.
Custom side grills are being made, need to spray the meshing that is going underneath.
the pull out mobo tray wont close due to a fan hitting the top RAD so im going to stand off with some spacers.
the front LEDs to change to RED.
4890 water block to be fitted.
Mobo holes to cut for cables (i might braid a few more cables aswell!!)
 
Looks like a good start :) Should be good if you can get everything done that you plan too.

Wish I could afford one of those cases, they always look so good and make fitting watercooling so easy!!
 
yeh im going to be using black and clear with a red dye.
the tygon stuff is better, getting a small radius with the XSPC stuff is hard, might have to fit coils (which i dont like :))
 
Update:

Bits have been ordered EK4890 block, feser aqua pure + red dye and some coils will post some pics when it arrives.
Going to cut mobo holes this weekend and fit the 2 pumps (with velcro for the moment), this means will be able to finalise cable routes and start braiding as needed.

getting ok temps on CPU considering i have the N/B and mosfets being cooled,priming at a max of 60 with fans on half power.

Same rad stand as me as well ;)

Can you let me know what holes your cutting and where looking for ideas lol

ive cut a few bits already..the roof, the triangular mobo bit at the top to get the rad in and a slot on the back so power cables can go behind the mobo directly.
im going to cut holes for the mobo power and the power to the GFX card, so i can fit the 2 pumps in at the bottom next to the bays at the front.
have decided to mount the 2 92mm fans outside so i dnt have to stand off the back panel was having a lot of hassle matching threads to the stand offs i wanted...seems they are not a regular (what i can steal from work anyway!!) thread.
 
Can you get me a shot of the cut on the back lol

And yep looking good

Just ordered a dremel 400 digital with 80 bits which also comes with the circle and line cutting tool! should be here sat which is good. So in the planning stages at the mo.

Have decided im going to look into writing a blog for it as im looking to apply for a hardware review job.
 
Sweet. I would love the Q9550 and a 4890. Try watercooling your graphics, you may be able to clock it to 1GHZ! ;)
 
Great build, the first pic really gives a sense of the size of the TJ07 - more so than a commercial pic against a plain background!
