Watercooled Prodigy Build (First Log)

Cheers Buzz, I love your internal fan controller on you log btw!!

Top rad removed for ease of access to everything else for now.

580 waterblocked and installed. PSU in with all required cables in there now.

And as always I am getting the usual expert advice from Jasper.

DAMN IT. Snag #436 the top rad wont fit on with the GPU fittings on the inside of the card. This one is going to take some thinking time. Might have to wake the cat up.
 
This is everything in that will be going in the case. Fairly happy with the cable routing, not got anything running over anything else yet and its not looking too bad to be honest.

Spammy 100th post.

I know the fan cables are looking poor and the fittings are silver rather than black, this is on the to do list. Will be re-doing the whole thing with white tubing in a few weeks, but it will be purple for now.
 
wouldnt the 120 on front mean more cold air coming in?
why dont you like it that way? you didnt explain why^^

thats awesome the 580 fits, im suprised just how good this case is for watercooling

bitfenix that 5inch bay so not needed...just sayin :p
 
Hi Mei,

Being honest I can't even remember why I didn't like it. I actually think you could be right that you could have a 120 in the front at the top just drawing cold air in the front but for some reason I have decided not to do that. :confused:

Oh and yeah it really is amazing how easy this case will take all these parts, its more the board layout that is causing issues really.
 
looks great tho thx for sharing the build
you have all the parts to finish it? :o
you going for overclock or quiet?
 
Cheers,

It should be leak testing tonight. Got everything I need so not to far away now.

I need to upgrade some fans, but I will do that when I change out the tubing. So until then the bitfenix fans aren't really all that quiet.

I am thinking of a modest overclock on the CPU and keep the temps/noise down as much as I can. Will have to see how it pans out really, didn't put to much thought into this before giving it a go. :)
 
Do you think I have any flow issues in here? lol.

Right now I need an angled fitting, just 1 extra fitting, I would take any angle at all. Overclockers is a two and a half hour round trip away, almost worth it at the moment. 1 piece from being finished.
