So Derrick, i've decided I LOVE your lowflow setup. This doesn't happen to often, there is only one other lowflow setup that I like on this whole site.

Do you want to know why I love yours as well as the other persons? Because you guys didn't use those ugly 1/4" tubes. Props, good job, and I like what I see so far =P, keep it up!

well i lucked out sharka has 1 aquastream pump left and i was able to nab it up with out a problem. i had to pick up afew other things that may delay my start up date.

1 Aqua Computer Aquastream Modified Eheim 1046 - 12V Centrifugal Water Pump w/ Fittings
Fittings: barb38 114.95

1 Aqua Computer Airplex Evo 160 Radiator Mounting Fan Grill
21.95

2 NEW!!! Papst Ultra Quiet Low Speed Case Fan - 80mm
31.90

1 Barbed Fitting For 10mm (3/8") ID Tubing - G1/4 Thread
4.95

1 Aqua Computer Aquatube Water Reservoir w/ P&C Fittings
Color: Black
Fittings: barb38 54.95
 
the 1st psu is a ocz 600sli psu it will consist of only 2 molox connectors 1 for the dvd rom drive and 1 for the m/b.

i have taken the extra 6 molox plugs and replaced them with sata power connectors and sleaved the rest of the wires.

now i know its old school but i will be mounting a3.5 floppy in the lowwer portion of the case just for the raid drivers and lil stuff like that. so you can only get to it with the case side off.


i have it some what worked out where 2 pumps will be mounted on the m/b tray and they will use the 2 aqua tubes on the front of the case.

the other 2 pumps the hd loop pump will mount in the lower portion at the front of the case it will also have an aqua tube as a res but it will be mounted to the left side panel of the case

the m/b loop will be ran off of a 160mm rad that will also mount to the left panel of the case. the res for this loop will be an aquainlet res if im not mistaken on the name and it will me placed in the rear of the case in the psu portion of the case.

the 2nd psu will power all the water cooling pumps, devices and uv lights and it is a ultra 500 watt mod psu.
 
you sir are crazy. i would reinforce the wheels if i were you hahaha

nah but for reals, i thought you just bought a buncha stuff to be able to pick and choose and save on shipping then sell em off after.... low and behold you plan to make it all into one monster machine! AAAAHHH
 
ok i mounted the psu wall, put in the false floor, made a new center floor and a m/b tray extention

lol im putting that in my sig
 
i started to lap my water blocks and this is no good after 5 sheets of 1000grit

normal_DSC01513.JPG


it has some way to go yet
 
actually, i think you get that kind of thing even if the base is already flat. reason: the sandpaper bunches up under the leading edge of the block. thus the edges get sanded first... you have to be really careful with the amount of pressure and all you use or you'll end up rounding it off. (you also usually end up pushing down at an angle on the block, not straight down, so it does more to the side you are pushing against) still, it can help.

looks like this'll be a fun project, and that's gonna be a crapload of tubing in there.

the black knight always triumphs!

Had the same problem. Start with 600 grit => 800 => 1000 => 1200 => 1500 => 2000 => 3000

Start a Sharka Die Die Die thread in the main AC watercooling forum. :p DD and Swiftech have had their come upins lately so why not Sharka?

Go here for some lapping advice. Also the search function will turn up a few other nice threads.

i worked on mounting the harddrives last night and opened up the psu so i can cut the stuff im not going to use off of it and extend the ones i am. i have one box that i should get to day for the pc and it will have every thing but 1 fan grill. so ill update pics tonight.


i have to go order parts for my truck now :(
 
Very nice. What are the various I.D.'s on the tubing runs? Those PWM blocks look to be at least 3/8"...very nice setup for cooling the chipsets on an inverted A8N32-SLI.

its all 3/8 id. i may use the 8mm for the hd loop because of how tight the hds are or i may just run 4 hd use the 3/8 tube and call it the day.

the psu was the main job today... I came up with the idea to try and run 1 psu so to aid in this i droped the use of 2 hard drives 1.2T is enough. so i cut and tied the legs that i would not need on the psu.

legs that are staying

2 molox cables
2 pci cables
1 modded leg that now has 3 sata power cables and 1 FLOPPY CABLE
1 4 PIN M/B CABLE
1 24pin cable.


i got my 80mm fans from sharka along with the last pump that i needed.

I got a black aqua tube and i think i may scrap the 2 blue ones in favor of the black ones
 
awesome!!

hey i got a similair board. the !8N-SLI Deluxe.. i need one of each of them chip set water coolers. what are they? and how would i know what to get? size? name? type im new to these water blocks.. ima get the same cpu one as u :)
 
they are all aquacomputer water blocks you can pick them up at sharkacomputers.com

on a side note im going to pick up some black paint so i can spray the m/b extender and the psu floor. ill work on routing the wires today. and start making the holes for the tubing
 
all the fans are Papst fans they are nice and silent. the fans in the psu will be replaced by them also
 
It's been a while since I've seen watercooling this extensive. Very nice work :)

OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH. IVE BEEN USING A DREMEL AND COULDNT FIGURE OUT HOW PEOPLE CUT IT SO WELL. Eh thanks man.
:eek:

OMFG :rolleyes:

When will people get over the fact that the dremel is a women’s tool and not the 1337-BE-DO-IT-ALL tool that everyone raves it to be. Shh.. I'd think the time you spent in woodshop would have told you that there are better tools for the job.

Jigsaw, band saw and table saw are the three most accessible tools for the normal guy that comes to mind.
 
OMG, it's looking so good.
Derrick70, get us some full case shots, would like to see wire management potential and just the over all sex, this case is putting off.

P.S.
I love your sig! :D
 
ill have a pic update tomarow the rest of the stuff is comming in so i will have final pics maby :rolleyes:
 
well i worked on it last night ran all the tubing for the m/b and mounted 2 of the pumps.I still have to do some work on the OCZ psu and make a few holes in the pexi to run cables and water tubes through it. im not a big fan the the tubing coils but i picked some up and used them on all the tubing that i have and im impressed with them. ill work on the side pannel to night to finish of the m/b loop and hope over to the hd loop and knock it out
