Silverstone FT03

Hey guys

. Since I've had to sell my rig, I'm looking at building a new one.

Only problem is, I'm going mATX. More specifically, a Silvertsone FT03.

Now, I was wondering if anyone had any knowledge of any watercooled FT03 builds? I'm going to have a crack at watercooling, and, if possible get 2 120mm rads in their, and cool both processor and GPU. Probably at stock, but I want this build silent, and damn good looking.

Cheers guys

Don't want a large case again

Would be more of a challenge to mod this

Yeah, after being the first person to watercool the phantom in the way that I did, I really don't think I'll go back to air cooling.

That 200mm rad is a great idea! Might see if I can't fit a 240mm there

I'll try making a small radbox for the top that will fit in with the shape.

I just love the minimalistic style of the ft03

Not that it will look quite as minimalistic once I whack out the dremel and jigsaw

That's the sort of thing I'm going for. But with a possible extra top rad, and a custom side panel

Hmm... If I can manage it, a 240, 160 and 120 rad setup should be able to cool a 2500k and a 7970

Yeah that looks good.

If you are doing an FT03, do it different to me though

I'll measure it up, and see what mentalness I can fit in. When I get one that is

I don't have the money or creativity to compete with kier!

Have you seen his TJ11 carbon build?

Shayper · 25 Dec 2011 at 21:45

Exactly. So, while awesome, my mod won't be a patch on his
