Presenting:

Hi fellow modders.
I was looking a long time for this Lian Li case, the PC-XB01
I knew he was EOL, but there is always someone who has this one.

So the search continued.

Think this case is really a beauty and offers quite a few opportunities because
Xbox is not really big and little more content, while the Lian Li is quite large.
It therefore offers opportunities for an expanded water cooling setup to installon the CPU and the GPU Proccesor.

After some research, I accidentally found a lovely Lili with a good friend:

Gnoom172.

Gnoom I owe you one

Also He had a nice Watercooling set for the Xbox. Which is very sweet, but too little for me.
I was then also noted by wwwicked a nice set from the famous Highflow shop

It was the XBOX PRO Dual 40 Watercooling Kit

Also very nice. But for a large case like i have now it’s actually too small
So after some fitting and measuring, I found out that it is quite possible for the following parts:

EK-Multioption RES X2 - 250 Advanced

Laing DDC-1 MCP350 12V

Black Ice GT Stealth 120 Black

Nanoxia DX Series 120MM DX12

Hmm, I think the color combo is gonna be again black / green uv......I like it

And 2 x EK-Supreme HF Nickel CPU Block

The Supreme's will fit nicely. I just need to mod the brackets, but this will definitely be nice

With this beautiful List I went to Freddy, and Highflow is again prepared sponsor this build

Freddy / Highflow thnx again very much

To start with I have some photo’s taken from the beautiful Lili

These are the victims that I had left from a distant past.

And I could not resist to test the little sweet set

With the set is nothing wrong, but would like some more extreme than this, what will succeed. I know it for sure.

So this is the start of a my new build.

Grtzzz. And to be continued

not sure about proof but i imagine it would make the console a darn sight more reliable and quieter too

kier · 28 May 2011 at 16:37

Thnx you guys. Don't know either about the dead ring but i think so.

no competitor linking please

Update!!!

Today and yesterday got some very nice stuff in of my belgium neighbors and High Flow

Yes, I had some luck ............ Ac Ryan acryl still in there shop

Uv green rules

The size of the side panel taken

And put some nice UV strips in the back

Both sides and just the right size

Placed the acryl and lights out

Also placed the sidepanel

And the effect is quiet nice

The other side is coming the same with some adjustments, transparent window and hole in the side panel.
And today got some nice stuff from Highflow

The Black Ice GT Stealth 120 Black radiator

A nice EK acryl top for the Laing DDC-1 MCP350

And the MCP350 pump

And my favorite fan, the Nanoxia DX 120MM DX12

Also not to forget, the 2 EK-Supreme HF Nickel CPU Blocks

Placed the EK acryl top

And this is what's coming in xbox

After all this picture taking, it's time to Dremel the bracket

After some filing and grinding

And put it together again

Update!!!

I found out that the radiator does not quite fit nicely. When i put him on the inside and place the fan on top it came too much into the case. So I moved him to the outside. First marked the holes for the fittings.

After drilling the holes placed the radiator

Placed BP Fittings

And placed the fan

Power on

I love the looks of the Nanoxia uv green

The total is still quite nice, the radiator is pretty slim. But not finished, something beautiful is coming my way from Mnpc , but that’s classified

I also have painted the mounting hardware for the dvd and hdd black

And I’ve started to work an the other side. In this I want the uv green edge back again. So again sawn another piece of green

And then mod the original panel

The intention is that there is a window in the same shape as the original
Tape on both sides .....

Draw some lines

And after some cutting and filing:

Tape off and he's done.

Now it is obviously not good to have a green window. Windows should be transparent, no color allowed. Therefore I used the green plate and did some more cutting
First, mark and drill holes in the corners for the jigsaw

And again some sawing

First I placed and fixed with bolts to put everything in place

After that I had a mold for the transparent acryl.

And the result

And put everything in place. All that work for a green edge, lol

But I like it

And the window just transparent

Total shot...........you like?

Next update, I’m gonna let you see the loop of the water cooling

See you then, I hope
Grtzzz.

getting a nanoxia fan made me want to do all my rig in black and uv green

awesome build

EniGmA1981 · 28 May 2011 at 22:39

What you've done there with the perspex is nothing short of genious! I love it!!!

The case looked 'good' before that, but with the uv green bands around each side that's just a thing of beauty!!

I'll be watching this one closely!

Guitarman0 · 28 May 2011 at 23:08

Looks great so far

I especially love the green edge
