wow!!!!!!!!thats some work you put there.......Water always make me feel overwhelmed and have never been able to complete a build with water, :D

It's no more difficult than rebuilding a BMW engine :D Jeeesh :rofl:

2 loops are bled with one more to go. Have to work tomorrow again for awhile but hoping to get to loading Catalyst by this time tomorrow night :thumbsup:

Not a SINGLE leak......... yet :D

;)

you don't need to sleep you can finish it tonight :P

DRY DOCK
 

BlaakHaart powered up under internal power but was recalled to dry dock due to malfunctioning RAID array and a dead fan on the 3rd loops rad.

RAID card was in the same slot of the same motherboard with the same disks in the same order.... I'm confused :ohcrap:

Rads mounted on window sill ...and it's getting colder.... :D

Maintenance bay tomorrow

IT'S ALIVE
 

A little wiring maintenance, reseating the RAID card and one of the SSDs, and BlaakHaart booted up at 4928 ghz and ran cool as can be :thumbsup: Rad fans are about 3/4in from the window pane and it's lower 30s, upper 20s outside.

Tomorrow, hook up the internet connection, load some more software, and post some pics of the rig in action :clapping: Damn beautiful piece of engineering if I say so myself :D

Just a test run with Vantage..

Sorry the pics suck so bad... dual screens and I'm thinking the res has something to do with it :thumbdown:

Vantage was 36K and change w/ the cpu at 4928 (HT on) and the 2 cards at stock @ 850Mhz. Temps from mid 30s to low 40s. GPU temp low 30s :D

Yeah, the screenies suck :rofl:

pic are to small to read lol

Pics :D

Note: no UV lites to keep the design elegant and not ostentatious = white LEDs on the Xigmatech fans illuminate the interior nicely

1st pic, top view plus front and 1 monitor - shows the 3 top white led fans
2nd pic, the full monty :D Look below the monitor under the flash reflection and you can see the Feser 3x140 Monsta Lite rad. The quad is directly below it but not very visible due to unlighted fans.
3rd pic - stately front and side view :)
4th pic was last night, while the beast was sleeping but it's beating haart was alive :thumbsup:

Rig is complimented with 2 x ASUS 26.6 in 2ms monitors, Razor Black Widow keyboard, and Razer Mamba gaming mouse. Razer mouse pad not shown :D
