Project (name TBC)

Welcome to the beginnings of my new project that I have yet to name. I have decided to change cases from my trustly old bitfenix colossus to the Coolermaster CM690II White edition. I wanted a smaller case that had support for 2 240mm rads without having to cut the case to bits!

Here are some teaser shots

Everything has fitted in nicely and there certainly won’t be and empty spaces once I have finished. Just need to decided on where to place my pump and then plan the loop order. My only issue is finding a fan controller , it needs to be either white or the same finish as the XSPC res cover otherwise it will look out of place. I have yet to find anything that will match so am very open to suggestions otherwise I might have to get a black one and mount it inside the case somewhere.

that is very nice! What rads are those? I'm wondering how the fans sit down flush in the rad.

Top rad is the XSPC 240 and bottom rad is the XSPC RX 240. They are dust filters on the top of the rads the fans are under them

o! Lol thought the fan was sitting down in there! I was thinking man that slick! Well I mean it still is slick. I have been wanting that case for a while now, what kind of a deal didi you get on it?

I got a it imported from another online shop, took a week to come and was 80 quid i think. trust message me and i can send u the link to the site. The case is great so far, only thing i will change is to put a window in the side panel

finally got round to setting up the loop, very happy with how it turned out, definitely my cleanest loop so far. Here are some pics of the filling process, will bleed out the air tonight and take some more pics tommorow.

Yeah I know. Not sure what paint to use on the controller as it has a rubber texture

thanks for all the feedback much appreciated. I decided to go the UV route instead of leds as I didn't want the case to be too bright (will post UV pics soon). Temps are good but since I have added the second 570 the case gets super hot after a gaming session. Since i have already filled the case up there are not many places left to mount some fans!
