Hehe, should be good for keeping your legs warm!

But seriously, a very nice build there man.

Nice build z10.
Just looking at yours makes me want to go for an external rad to save messing about cramming it into a case.

Here's mine...nothing special, but it does the job.

EDIT: Got rid of carpy photos and took some better ones.

I noticed some ppl put their rad where the rear exhaust is, will that not make inside the case hotter as there's no rear exhaust?

lankymorley · 25 Jan 2009 at 12:44

I've always wondered that willy, any answers?

Bradley8988 · 25 Jan 2009 at 13:19

There is a rear exhaust. its going through the rad.

Sipha · 25 Jan 2009 at 13:34

Yup, mine works fine with the rad in that orientation, case temps are all good

Very nice and tidy - I love the 'spaghetti junction' you've got going on there, some cool shapes.

How have you illuminated the case?

Did you use cathodes or is the lighting purely the LED fans?

Doc Shorla · 20 Feb 2009 at 16:31

Hi mate, ive used both. Its the cathods that have the greatest effect. The led fans just make the fans look pretty rather than making anything else look blue if that makes sense.

You sure you've got the right size coils for your tube OD there mate? I don't think there should be any gap between the coil and the tube. Either you stretched them when putting them on or you've got the wrong size. Might not be a problem in this case as the tube bends seem to look ok, but I would say with the gap, the coils probably aren't actually doing much to prevent tube flattening. Is it 3/8" ID tube your using? You can get both 1/2" OD (mainly Feser) and 5/8" OD tube, and coils to suit. I know cos I bought some 5/8" ID coils by mistake and they were very slack on my feser tubing, although mega easy to slip on, rather than wrapping like you normally have to do. I didn't use them though.
