Nice one. The tubing looks a bit lost though

Thanks for comments.

Looks great Khem, love the lighting and the window but bigger tubing might of looked a little better. Other than that it is fantastic, good job.

Yeah i know that bigger tubing might have looked a bit better i mentioned it here

http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showpost.php?p=13997380&postcount=2309 still, doubt there is any performance diff.

You should get your gtx 295 watercooled then your system would be even more amazing

here`s my set up

mjones1 · 10 May 2009 at 10:10

The power supply looks lost in that massive case, What case is it?

Generious · 10 May 2009 at 12:18

Swapped out my tubing yesterday and installed new pump and res went for a double loop.

Will post an outside of case pic when my camera works again

this is ATX, but half-sized (case is jeantech R2)

mrjones1 if u click on "click here for games an ded server spec`s" it`ll tell u

also that PSU is 200mm long m8, bigga than a normal atx psu

its huge ...

i too have a A77 case that i got a while ago. Seeing as my GFX card blew up and it was all apart i decided to paint the internals satin black and got the dremel out and cut some holes for cable tidying.

I also went back to dual loop taking the graphics card out of the cpu loop reduces CPU temps by quite a bit.

what you think ?

Seeing your pics I'm thinking I might change my cooler for the one you have - it looks like it fits far better on the P5Q...

It fits very well but its one serious b***h to fit...so be prepared to have some fights with it

Lian Li a77

Firestar_3x · 11 May 2009 at 18:50

Could do with sorting a few wires out but apart from that i'm quite happy

My A05B finished with a window mod, lian li make great cases and are hard beaten on quality silverstone seem to be the only ones that challange them on that front.

That's a bold statement, which I'm going to have to disagree with you on.

While your Lian Li certainly looks nice, there is no denying that, there are several case manafacturers that make far better quality chassis than Lian Li.

For example Origen AE, make beautifull high end HTPC cases.

A-Tech Fabrication are another producer of quality HTPC and NAS boxes.

MCubed is another one you missed off the list.

And how could you possibly forget Zalman :confused:

4-5mm anodized aluminium panels throughout, not just on the front panel either.

linktoinsanity · 12 May 2009 at 09:30

Zalman's are good, but very few would like to spend that much money on a case, I know I wouldn't!

Anyway, I've cleaned out my system and rebuilt it, sorting out the cable management and fitted a different cpu heatsink.

Before:

Now:

Since the previous picture I have also updated the graphics card from a nvidia 8800GT to an ATI HD4870.

Mine

Watercooled Antec 900

Pump mounted out the way.

Front mounted XSPC RS360 Radiator

mjones1 · 12 May 2009 at 18:39

That is one sweet watercooling rig

Mr.Bon · 12 May 2009 at 19:22

my 1st attempt at building a pc!

Case: Silverstone Fortress FT01b

Ease · 12 May 2009 at 19:29

Nice Case and GPU Mr. Bon! I take it you haven't overclocked it yet? I'd consider getting an aftermarket PSU Cooler rather than using the stock cooler if I were you. Love your motherboard though, which is it? I have the GA-EP45T-UD3P and it looks very similar.
