Pretty impressive temps considering the slimness of the rads. Is that an RS120 up top and a 280mm ST30 down there, or are those 180mm fans?

Looks great

Just slung it all together so still scruffy but its all working and temps are 26c idle and load after half hour of looping valley benchmark 55c

Silverstone fortress ft02B-W ASus build

The core voltage on CPU running at 1.376V on prime 95.

The rad I have used is the alphacool XT45 180mm dual rad with 2 Silverstone 180mm air penetrator fans underneath in push config. I managed to keep all 3 removable dust filters by cutting out part of the MB mount on the case.

The rad on top is a basic slimline 120mm but has a gentle typhoon fan underneath which is epic but not as good as the Silverstone 180 fans, which are truly amazing. I have the fans controlled on the front panel and even on very low speeds their is no temperature increase in the loop.

Going to push my graphics cards now and see how much extra FPS I can achieve...

Nice, I forgot they did dual+triple 180 rads.

khemist · 27 Sep 2013 at 20:55

I had pretty much the same setup in my RV02, minus a second GFX card.

newbwatcz · 27 Sep 2013 at 21:15

Nice build, I especially like the 90 degree fitting bend on the bottom rad, is that a bitspower T adapter that you plugged one end?

khemist · 27 Sep 2013 at 21:26

Thanks, yeah it is.

The setup has been through a few different looks over the past while although i am going to be downsizing to matx next.

Nvidia logo is green when lit.. does look black when off tho.

Build took longer than i wanted as some people let me down on the panels. But that gave nvidia time to release the 780's

But anyway its all finished now!

Uncle Petey · 27 Sep 2013 at 21:41

Any more pics of the finished article with lights and stuff?
Is that a fully custom case btw?

khemist · 27 Sep 2013 at 21:45

Seen that on another forum i think, looks great!.

Nazeral · 27 Sep 2013 at 21:49

Its a Cosmos S with too much money spent on it

And i didn't take a picture of the logo at the time as i had to build a 555 timer PCB to pulse the leds. I can get one tho

Uncle Petey · 27 Sep 2013 at 21:52

Please do, I demand moar!

Pulse leds? I demand video too!

Nazeral · 27 Sep 2013 at 22:20

I had to build a light tunnel for it as with the lights pushed to the green acrylic it would have looked like this http://i.imgur.com/PukcSCm.jpg which isnt great.. so i had tocut a hole in the back of the panel and make something up with the negatives nate gave me from the panel and mount the LEDs. http://i.imgur.com/39jdbd3.jpg

Sorry for standing the cam up.. just the gfx cables were getting in the way! hope you dont get neck ache lol

Uncle Petey · 27 Sep 2013 at 22:24

You did a great job there mate

Now stop teasing us and show the rest of it

Nazeral · 27 Sep 2013 at 22:49

I dont have any of the whole case and atm shes a little dusty

Uncle Petey · 27 Sep 2013 at 22:51

I'm prepared to be patient

Tonester0011 · 29 Sep 2013 at 21:26

Just thought i'd share a picture, nice primochill hose and monsoon fittings, just looked quite nice.

Looking forward to finally getting my hands on my Parvum case when they finally ship the bleeding thing

krisboats · 30 Sep 2013 at 00:57

My first visit into watercooling and i've done the whole loop for well under £100!

Swiftech 120 & 240mm rads
Swiftech apogee GTZ cpu block
Laing ddc 18w with XSPC restop
Feser one uv orange fluid

Got my q6600 at 3.65 with 58 max load despite the bad fans and poor rad fitment within the case. Already found ways i'd change it and looking at including the graphics card too!

@d1nky

tell me Im wrong butn is that a compression fitting attached to the resevoir without the compression ring attached, so its just like a small barb? does not look safe!

khemist · 4 Oct 2013 at 19:56

I'm guessing it's a barb that's larger than the tubing so there isn't much chance of it coming off.

I've also got the same coming from my res since i couldn't use two compressions side my side.
