    Greebe's lame watercooled case mods pics

    Ok guys here it is...






    two el cheapo 80mm case fans draw air up from underneath passing by the radiator which is 10.5" x 5" x 3/4" (~26.7cm x 12.7cm x 1.9cm) and mounted to the top of the flared stablizer.

    Very neet and tidy with a minimum intrusion into the case... cause I like this case and not the new ones... so this will be the case for whatever else I upgrade too

    I'm not going for extreme cooling per se... it's quiet I'm looking for... what little sound it produces by the fans is dampened by the carpet below.

    I won't access the underside to show the radiator... sorry, it's only for private screenings

    Cheers

    That's ok, Greebe. I don't think anybody here would want to see your underside.

        Stable... like I said I'm not going for extreme cooling, tho I am in a sense... I have an additional 10c of headroom over the Zalman HS setup with the 120mm fan (OMG was that loud)

        Living in south Florida may be nice (my windows are open and I'm partly neked as always, but in the summer it's killer hot in this room... system was getting boardline stable with indoor temps of 80f (26.7c) and above.

        Remember when extreme OCing it's the top peak temp that'll bring you down everytime.

          Looks COOL Mike

          But explain Mike... I see a small grey box with a lot of hoses going in and out, is that your waterbox, or does the wooden box underneath hold more?

          Which can't be, for you've got two fans in there... errrm, attached to your shower then, in a way?

              OJ I don't think so... and to explain would make me sound like I'm bragging... something Greebe doesn't like doing even when he does.

                BTW guys... total cost was ~$110... I made the waterjacket and the water resevour/pump to hold $$'s down.


                note: $110 was on the high side, some purchased items not used... cooling stuff (only) cost $75

                    They're 5/8" OD (~1.59cm) 1/2" ID (1.27cm)... didn't want any waterflow restriction do to elbows on the smaller stuff being very much smaller... water flow is 96 gal/Hr (363 liters/Hr)
