I had planned on starting a new project this year but after giving it much thought plans changed and i decided to give the Obsideon a make over.

Got a few knocks and scratches on the outside they will have to stay for now just going to concentrate on the inside for now.Water is starting to look a little green and the dust is building up :(

When first built it only had cpu and gpu water cooled even though i always wanted to get everything done, money was an issue at the time .

So lets start by giving a few shots of the original build from 2 years ago,
excuse the poor picture quality my camera isnt the greatest..

Well all didnt go quit to plan over the weekend having to spend two days waiting for a faulty replacement part,
but all is built and running leak free .

on full load with Prime 95 the hottest core is 51c
gpu is maxing out at 37c
and the NB/SB 37c which is nearly 20 degrees cooler than is was.
and gone is the noisey fan over the mosfets .
