its a coolermaster cosmos sport (£150), been redundant for ages now

never used it cos the airflow sucked big time due to the fact that there was 1 fan on the front for intake and one on the bottom, then 3 ontop and one on the back for exhaust and the big fan on the side is crap...

by the time i finnish with it there will be 4 intake and 4 exhaust using the same fans all round :)

lol, I meant what surface are you working on, not what case, as in a table or a work bench or... :p

But the case though, looked awesome before, can't wait to see the final outcome afterwards because from what you are planning it sounds like it will be a beast

ahhh i see, it was a bench i made which had my vestax turntables on with funky lighting etc!

i used to own alot of dj stuff, now i just got alot of computer stuff....

hopefully it should look and perform good.

i just paid £71 for my mobo blocks from poland, its nickel plated copper with acrylic top made by a person with a good hand at this stuff!

im also getting a window cut into the side panel to show off all my goodness

why poland :confused:

and slightly ot, but why doesn't anyone ever have a panel in the top of their case, that would be so cool looking down into it and if you had fans with lights, how awesome would it be to have the light shining up :D

no one else does the water blocks thats why poland! i wish i didnt have to buy from there but tis all i can get, but judging from all the feedback from his other customers his work is high quality!

i cant have window ontop cos there is a tripple rad going there and a tripple rad in the front so the side window will do :p

ive ordered 4 rocker switches and im going to mount them on the case to control my 4 cold cathod "12 uv tubes, my idea is that im going to use black tubing but wrap it in uv red anti kink coils

might or might not work, who dares wins

cheers dude!

water cooling is what its all about, im gonna get it all under liquid and im gonna push my cpu past 4ghz and push my 2 4890's big time (once i get the second)

looking at another 80gig ssd for raid0 but that might be a little more in the future, im not sure i can make sense of spending £400 on 160gig of ssd granted i have already spent £200 on one but another £200 on another???

dont know....

Well all i can say thats one expensive machine...but totally worth it eh? i doubt you will need to upgrade for a very long time when its all complete.

How much does an budget,but decent enough water cooling prices start from?
Just curious.

Talking about 4890s,I was thinking of replacing the cooler on my 4890,Its running 61c idle.

im working alot of overtime now, and obviously i have to pay for christmas aswell dam it!

ill prob get the cpu and mobo loop up and running then over the christmas/january ill buy second gpu and setup the second loop.

well your looking at maybe £250 for a half decent cpu loop...

yes it is an expensive machine but its my baby lol

on the water cooling kit pics, what are 2 and 4 for?

tubing clips/jubilee clips and the other is the mounting bracket for my laing ddc pump, basicly gives me more mounting options within the case

you should air brush an awesome artistic scene or character or something. Maybe do some graffiti style art on it or something.

The black looks good though.
