Where are the fans going to be mounted?

Normal orientation is res pump block rad not rad -> block.

resv > pump > block > rad > Resv

at least, that's the way I normally do it ;)

:D

Why don't you use what I used to mount my outside quads on the Battlestar - cabinet door hinges :D The work great :thumbsup: Or, you could get some small L brakets and paint them black.

Other than that, have you given any thought to Velcro :laughing:

I am using [Pump]>[Motherboard]>[Chipset]>[CPU]>[Rad #1]>[GPU]>[Rad #2]>[Res]>[Pump]

I am not really good at this so I kinda mark everything very clear just so I don't get them mixed up.
I was actually wondering which side should I install the fan on? as up to now, I have it installed on the hose side but will that be too close to the case and not get enough air flow?

The white holes are where the tubing is gonna go

TBH MD I was gonna do it just like yours where it's gonna be sticking out like that but because the case is too damn small it's not gonna let me :/

Dude, you have to have space between a solid wall and the fan intakes, and, I at least always try to keep the heated air blowing away from computer. Bitspower makes some neat radiator mounts that hold the unit about 1inch from the wall of the computer. Koolance makes a really neat rad mount that has flex arms to move in and out, but it's about $45.

Removing the case fan for the water tubing could prove problematic because you case still needs to breath. Think that's why OC asked where you were gonna put the fans.

I'm thinking that case is just a little too small for what you're trying to do Bro.

I see,
Will it be better if i just put 4 holes there on the bottom?
What i am trying here I think is just build a very hybrid system that's got a little extra power than what it looks

Since this is my FIRST modding I don't want it to be too compacted but at the same time I want where I get alot of practice but i monna take it slow tho, just so I can make sure I do everything right

DAMN I WAS CREATIVE WHEN I WAS LITTLE! now i am old! :D

I monna swing by home depot tomorrow after class and see if i can find anything there

My idea was pretty much build a holder type of thing where i can drop slide any kind of rads from 120mm to 360/480mm based in and lock it in kinda like a HDD trey in your case


TBH MD, your rig is where I got some of my ideas from and OCM is the one give me the motive to actually get my lazy ass up and doing it and for the first time in my life wanting to make it look nice

yeah, now get off your lazy ass and pick up that duck tape at Homedepot :D

+1

:laughing:

Seriously again, your drilling into the grill over the pcie slots, which is going to make swapping out any cards very difficult, might even make the whole thing not work.. don't know.

I say go for it and figure it out as you go if need be, that's basically what I did with the Battlestar :D

BTW - you can find the duck tape by all the quaking and honking noise they make on the shelf :laughing:

I HAVE DUCK TAPE IN THE HOUSE!!!!!
so we all good on the duck tape part!

I am just gonna cut some part of the grill out and just enough i can put some protection around the tubing and have it going into the system we should be good
The only part i'll be drilling is the back of the case which i'll have to make sure where do drill n all

i am making some of the best stake out there!!!

I am really just looking for a very clean system with alot of power but don't wanna go the extreme end something 430W PSU can hold up
