Watercooled Case Gallery

Easyrider: You need to do a lot of tidying there mate, but I love your hardware :eek:


Anyhow, here's my case. The pictures are a bit over a month old, but I haven't done too many changes. Mainly just added a shroud on the radiator.

This is my baby, bigwater and it does me just fine, hasn't gone much higher than 30 degrees so far. only problem i have with it is space.. most of it is ok atm but if you look just above top right corner of the speaker you can see that the tube that comes from the pump bends too sharply.. this hasn't much affected the flow but it does concern me a bit.

El cheapio watercoolio :p

CoreTemps sit at 49c with both cores folding. Northbridge sits at 33-35c under load. And the GPU idles at around 38c, rising to 46-48c under load.
 
Here's my Coolermaster 201 ATC from 3 years ago:

Unfortunately it's not in the state as shown above anymore and now I have a Silverstone TJ03B which I'll be watercooling soon :)
 
Took a Dremel to the underside of my Eclipse 62, covered it with a thermochill grill and squeezed a thermochill PA 120.0 in and seated it inside the bottom of the case. 2xAkasa ambers sucking cold air through it and blowing onto my GFX ram. :D

Really wanted watercooling but also wanted it all internally, have had to sacrifice the PCI slots space to do so.
When I upgrade to Conroe may well need to buy myself a new case.

Here's some pics:-

To begin with, how I had it originally.
The grill (the hole could have been neater but it was my first time with a Dremel!):

Where I housed the pump:

The innards as was:

And this is what it looks like at the minute with one fan now housed underneath and the old freezer pro fan blowing on the MOSFETS :o :-

This has freed up one PCI slot. I tried with both fans on the outside but it didn't cool my gfx RAM anywhere near as good, so I opted for the least aesthetically pleasing option of one fan out and one in.
