sorry i've been slow with pics lately...when i was in the process of sleeving all of my cables, i realized that i didn't have enough supplies. i wanted to re-use the molex connectors from my current setup, but i have some red, some blue, some black - so i ordered a bunch of black molex...

i've been away the past few days so i didn't get a chance to sleeve the cables yet. though, i did flip the mobo last week before i left to go out of town. instead of just flipping the unmodified mobo tray like i did last time, i ordered a new back panel from murdermod. reason be, when simply...

the carbon fiber came from: http://www.protechcomposites.com/ no, i will not be using the ducts again. looking to watercool now...the ducting was just an experiment :)

ok well here are some progress shots from the fabrication of the new subfloor. i hacked up the original one for its brackets. i figured this was the best way to have a perfect fit, and also the stock subfloor was made out of nice quality aluminum. came out pretty nice (as you saw from the teaser...

teaser pic... more soon...

i actually might be giving away the ducting very soon... :D planning on flipping the mobo tray in the next week or two (waiting for parts to come), so that would mean that the ducting would no longer fit. in that case i will either build new ducting or just watercool. the aircooling was kind...

Transaction Pending...

I have a modified OCZ RAM cooler in my system but I don't like the chrome anymore so I want to switch to the Corsair RAM cooler. Here are photos of my OCZ RAM cooler. The brackets have been modified so this unit is compatible with virtually all RAM (even Corsair Dominator). I am currently...

the first sheet of carbon fiber came...along with the second scythe kama bay cooler & some of the black screws/thumbscrews. still waiting on the other piece of CF for the sub-floor. before: after: close up: more pics to come...kinda busy right now.

that's why i have the carbon fiber coming...i'm going to remake the silver colored parts in carbon fiber! :D

painted the ducting...

thanks! oh, i just ordered some new goodies too... 2 sheets of finished carbon fiber panel another scythe kama bay cooler 2 black/blue-lcd digital thermometers w/ probes black cable sleeving black heat-shrink black thumb-screws black fan-screws black fan-grills i am going to use...

used an old 12v power supply plug from a router that died.

yeah but i forgot to take photos and i'm feeling too lazy to now. i used one of those flapper-type dryer duct exhaust vents that you would install on the outside of a house. similar to what i did here: yeah i had some extra dryer duct left, and an extra 92mm fan sitting around...so i...

well, before i was seeing GPU temps up to 80c at idle. now i'm seeing GPU temps in the low 60's (C). i'll take pictures of the individual components (there are 3 total) when i take the ducting out. :)

First off, here are my system specs: Silverstone TJ07 Case (black) Intel Core2Extreme Quad-Core CPU @ 4.0GHz Zalman CNPS 9700NT Heatsink eVGA 132-CK-NF78-A1 Motherboard 4GB Corsair Dominator DDR2 RAM (2) eVGA 9800GX2 Video Cards @ 700MHz core / 1075MHz memory eVGA 8600GT PCI Video...

what?!? sounds like you're doing something wrong. every time you add or remove music & re-sync - it doesnt re-upload everything. it only adds/removes what you have added/removed to the sync list since the last time you synced. or perhaps your USB port isnt USB2.0? you can only add/remove songs...

yeah im asking $1999 for it (without any hard drives) and he said sure. im meeting him saturday so he can pick it up. think i might wait 2 or 3 months to order new parts for the dual 8800gtx project. just found out i'm moving back to florida (more schoolin') before the summer is over, so i'm...

ya know, at first i didnt like the zune software myself....but once i played with it, and added a few registry hacks...i really like it now. works great imo the drag and drop function only works if you have the zune software installed/running, and the registry hack installed. kind of...

that's very strange. i only charge my zune every few days and i use it on a daily basis...on the subway, walking around, at work, etc. maybe you have a bad battery in yours? also, there is a battery upgrade that you can get for only $20...

yeah it fit fine. the case closed no prob. from the outside its looks 100% stock...but on the inside its an 80gb :D

haha ZUNE HAX!!!!! omfgzorz saw that it was possible to swap out the 30gb hdd for an 80gb hdd, so i ordered one off ebay ($169) and swapped mine. works great! i guess microsoft is only selling the 30gb model for now...im proud to say i own one of the few 80gb zunes now. only took 15 mins to...

looking great! i just found someone to buy my TJ07 rig...looks like my new one will be in the works soon! can't wait to see it with lighting

oh my god that is the ugliest case i've ever seen...and even worse cable management. excuse me i need to go burn my eyes out.

What ever happened to BladeRunner from Zero Fan Zone ( http://www.zfz.com ) ??? He kind of disappeared off the face of the earth! The last news entry was on posted 16:39:57, 03 July 2005. I still think he made some of the sexiest blocks (from scratch) that I've ever seen. Few examples...

oh man now ive got the itch to put together a dual 8-series rig...... if i could just get my sli 7 series rig sold..... here's what im looking at for my next tj07 build: SILVERSTONE SST-TJ07-B Black Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700 Kentsfield 2.66GHz LGA 775 Processor EVGA 122-CK-NF68-A1 LGA...

dude. looks AWESOME. i can't wait till my next overhaul. i'm definitely doing something like this. only thing i dont like...this ugly elbow and awkward tubing: i would swap out the fitting on that lower 8800 waterblock with one of these...

tj07 i've worked with all three cases before and the tj07 is the best - on my opinion. i used one for my primary rig. classic design, flawless. pure beauty.

to tell the truth i really like the rear mounted res's. seems like it would be very easy to fill the loops and also allow air to get out. as far as the pumps...i guess mount them wherever you can haha

it's been done, numerous times. forum search: "watercooler" or "water chiller" or "mini fridge" or "bath chiller" the only good way to do it is with a bath chiller system - meaning you mount the evaporator directly in a "bath" of water. here's an example of a project i did using a mini fridge...

it's the same stuff that came with the case. when i cut the subfloor to be larger, i actually had more than enough of the original stuff to go around the edge of the new hole

don't mount the pump on the bottom of the cd drive!!! the pumps do vibrate a little. i'd be worried that the magnets in the pump or vibration might mess up the cd drive. if you take the time to mount the motherboard upside down, then you'll have room to mound the pumps right on the subfloor...

you're better off keeping the two loops separate. don't have them share one res. the two 8800's are going to produce a lot more heat than the CPU - sharing one res would just bring up the average temp of the CPU i would assume. since you have two rads, might as well use one for each loop and...

wow dude, that looking GREAT. can't wait to see it perform. i knew those two rad's would fit nicely! about the fan airflow direction - do you want it to pull air through the fans and exhaust it out the sides (like you have it now) --- or do you want to have the fans draw cool air from outside...

yeah - those elbow barbs are EXACTLY what you would need - just like i used in this pic: you can get the nylon fittings here for $1.29 each http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=346_343&products_id=21262 or, a more expensive option, this fitting: it...

my thoughts on that sketch: put the fans on the other sides of the rad. so you can actually see them (though the mesh) when the doors are on. the reason for this: maintenance. you're gonna get dust build up on the fan blades and behind the fans (on the actually fins of the radiators). you'll...
