Project - Feuer und Wasser

I've been planning this project for a while and the case came today

The plan is to have a watercooled case with a 360 & a 240 radiator.

Sketchup design

The case

todo:
remove drive rack making room for PSU
move backplate for PSU down & mesh hole in top
remove floppy cage
drill hole for cpu mount fitting
drill holes for 360 radiator
drill holes for 240 radiator
install drive rack behind 240 radiator
move front cables
install custom controller (1 reobus for all radiator fans)
maybe todo:
spray inside white
spray outside black

So not just the standard watercooling, but some firecooling ja?

I'm pretty sure you can have underwater fire, so why not put some in your loop? this should be interesting

The ol' hot water cooling, a classic

I got the case earlier and the first thing I did was remove most of the plastic parts (fan mounts etc)

Update:

I've now drilled out the rivets and removed the floppy bays and the hard drive bays, just measuring up for the psu

NICE

very impressive renders

Where does the fire come in? Is that when the loop fails and the system goes up?

Joking aside, sounds interesting

Nice to see more people adding build logs

I'm going to build my current system into it, then look at maybe getting a phenom II x4/x6 & a GTX 460 in the future.
