The mobo looks tiny in there! I so want to see a 900D in the flesh lol

fantasticCG · 15 Apr 2014 at 11:08

The 240PE arrived from ocuk

All the rads are now the PE series

This looks really good, the 900D is such an epic case!

Can't wait to see how it will turn out!

fantasticCG · 18 Apr 2014 at 16:42

All the rads are now in

Mobo and gpu's back in.
Thoughts on the pump placements? not sure if I should place the right hand pump down below did think to cramped.
Mid plate placed in for now so I can get the measurements for drilling.

Looking great mate. I really like the pumps there, not sure if the will vibrate a bit on the midplate though. Where's the other res?

I did wondered that too.
I have thought about having them below and having tubing running straight into the mid plate.
No other tube res or I would have had to replaced the back panel completely to fit 2 250s on.
It's a ek spin bay res in the front tubing will come out and bend down.

Ah Get it now. Just a thought on the pumps - You could place a piece of 5mm foam under each one - I did that with mine and just used 1 layer (thin one) of one of these;

Thanks m8 Ill grab one.
Do you think I should screw them to the mid plate ?
I personally wasn't going to, as once everything was screwed in it should be enough

Pgreenwo · 18 Apr 2014 at 22:50

Nah - No need to screw down

The EK PE series is exceptional!!!

Looks similar to XSPC AX... Perform alike as well.. Cost 1/2

One other thing the pumps are on the anti vibration rubber bottoms they came with.

fantasticCG · 22 Apr 2014 at 12:23

Update time!!! Very pleased with myself

One pump will go below the mobo pump and the gpu pump stay on top!
It's was a butt clenching moment drilling through the mid plate!!!

Nice work Alex :cool:

Looking really good Alex.

Never add up your Bitspower fittings spend. It often makes you feel immensely sick.

Lol I know and I'll have some left over

I like the tubing. Good job here

fantasticCG · 26 Apr 2014 at 17:36

I've come up with the pump config.
Thoughts ? Good or bad.
The top mobo block has also been tubed up finally.
Just need to wirer the fans up! Plump in the bottom with soft tubing and bend 2 pieces of tubing!
Then hope it starts!
