Project preditor OVERLOADED!

can the 120mm fans be mounted on the top of the case, under the external plastic bit but not in the main case so they pull air through?

like this on the corsair 600t

somthing else - I really hoped that I could but the space between the plastic top of my case and the mounting points for the fans is not possible, there is around a centimetre max, I tried to do it, but even with the fins that I have when closed it dosent work, I am going to keep the 240 at the bottom for now, i will look into low profile fans aswell, thanks for the tip tho.
 
Hey there guys, so its time for another update, been waiting for the rest of my water cooling stuff to arrive, its finally here! woop, I have installed all of the fittings, I am a little anoyed becouse the EK fluid didnt turn up :( but still i have plenty to be playing with, I have also installed the 24 pin white extension, looks amazing :D:D:D

here are the pictures for what i have done so far:

I thought of a clever way for cutting the tube, dug around the draw to find one of my grandads cigar cutters :D more then sharp enough!

Anyone had any experience with corsair 430w builder series PSU? Just brought myself one, the semi modular one. Any thoughts...? Cheers :) I hope the OP build goes well too after all the comments slating it, looked like a decent build apart from a few issues. Good luck with it :-)
 
Both the fans that i have on the back radiator are perfect, I understand what you mean, the fans arnt the best so the front one struggles on its own to pull air through, thats why i have the one on the back, it really helps, nice strong flow of cold air, as for the corsair 430w, i would say its ok, to small for what i want to do but you might be doing somthing different.
 
haha, no im afraid i havent got a new PSU yet, its a long story, Im going to have to blame by old man for this on, So the EC6 coolant came on saturday but i was busy (i was originally going to go for EK but i changed my mind) I thought i would cool it on sunday, so i stripped off the very clean thermalcool CPU cooler, amazed at how clean it was, there was literally no dust, I think its to do with the fan setup in the case, negative pressure etc.... so any way, i plummed all of the tubing in, there will be pics to follow, I then came to add the coolant, I removed my CD drive so i could fit the pipe in for filling into the top of the reservoir, however, i then realised that i had no funnel :( so i was stumped, my dad came home and asked if he could help, mainly becouse i was looking confused, i saw no problem with this, hev told me that we could "shyphen" the fluid into the reservoir, yet again i said ok, we came to do it but the tubing wouldnt fit correctly in the reservoir, so he stopped and put the tip of the tube back in the bottle, so now both ends where in the coolant bottle, he said he was going to make a cup of tea and think about it, i went down to the garrage to see if i had anything i could use, i was looking for a good 3 minuetes max!!! i came back with nothing, first thing i saw was that the bottle was empty, i thought that my dad had found a way to do it, then i noticed that there was no coolant in the system, then i noticed that my pc table was submerged in coolant, i nearly passed out, luckly i had a roll of tissue that soaked most of it up! I have ordered some more coolant that is non conductive and also white to go with the build, also i have baught a 1 litre fill bottle so i dont make any more mistakes, well, thats all for now im afraid, im using my little baby toshiba notebook, 1GB or RAM, lol.........

cheers

cheers for the link but i know how to fill my loop, as for the two fans, i have them pulling air into the case, in a way its good for the hard drives becouse it is pulling cold air from the front fan over the hard drives into the radiator, I have also looked at the way that the air will go from the radiator fans, all is ok so there is no worries for the air in the case, thanks for pointing that out tho.

cheers
 
Ahh its drawing in from the front then? I didn't realise, I thought it was exhausting through there instead. Suppose if you can't mount it at the top, you are quite limited in where you can stick the 240.
 
james, i will try to make a diagram for where my fans are and what way they are blowing, i can sucsessfully tell you that all the fans are sucking air into the case to create posative air pressure, i can also say that it keeps the case seriously clean, the best thing about white is that you can see all of the dust and fluff, over all, i am amazed with it :)
