1st time modder here. I love the feeling of community on this forum, so I thought I would take a leap of faith and post a thread for this mod I have recently started.
I have been inspired by a number of the projects I have seen on this site, so at the very least...thanks to you all for your hardwork

this is the case that I started with. Lian Li PC-7A plus

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/86faf735.jpg

I love the brushed aluminum panels

first step obviously was to take the whole thing apart (mostly without a plan of action)

I bought some red paint and started to see if I have any spray painting skills. I won't bother you with the images of me cursing and sanding out bad spots.

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/24fda162.jpg

above you can see that I have marked out to drill a couple holes for the hose fittings. btw. this will also be my first watercooled case as well.

as far as drilling holes go, the first try was pretty ugly, the second not much better, but I prevailed (notice the washers that will cover the ugly scratches due to poor drilling skills.

end result

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/79952c6c.jpg

holes are drilled...so I thought i'd test fit my plan for the tubing

I have been spending a lot of time waiting for red paint to dry so I started on some ideas for wire management. First up was the fans.

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/a3e500ff.jpg

I got the little plastic boxes, cut out the top to screw on a 4 post audio thingy (technical term), screwed it in an voila! once I get to putting the components in, I can figure out wiring and where to put this little box

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/1134e49b.jpg

ive got 3 fans and the water pump that will plug in there.

for molex power I'll need 4 sources so away I go with another little black box

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/61e9ebf3.jpg

some careful utility knife work (had a couple close calls on this one) and...

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/5849a863.jpg

I'll have the power in from the end and the power out from the top 4 slots

i have dropped off a few of the parts to get polished (chrome plating was too expensive). hopefully that will turn out nice...we'll see

I've got most of what I want to do in mind already, what I don't know is what to do with the blank panel on the motherboard side. Once I have more of this completed and you can see where i'm going with it maybe I can get some suggestions.

That's a great looking case and your work is coming along nicely. I love what you've done with those outlets, clever! If you don't mind me asking, where did you get those sharp looking plugs you are using for the fans? Are they just RCA plugs for high-end stereo components like monster cables?

Thanks, believe it or not I got them at the Radioshack next to my office. They have the chrome ones and gold plated. I was dissapointed that they don't carry any glass LED's, just the plastic ones. I'm still looking for a handful of LED's to fit into the mod.:D

Things are looking pretty crowded at the back there, might be better to mount the radiator the other way around, and shorten those tubes? Just an idea, i'll admit i don't know a great deal about liquid cooling systems, but that might be worth thinking about.

Your little black boxes look sweet, keep up the good work :)

I love the wire management idea! I'm planning to (borrow) the idea for a mod of mine in the future. I've been looking for a way to clean everything up, and I think this will help. Thanks!! muah*

I agree. I want the radiator on the outside but I want the fan on the inside blowing through. I wanted to do something with rigid pipe, but was having trouble finding the parts to make it work. Still not out of the question though if I can figure it out. My priority is really to keep the tubing on the inside of the case as organized as possible. I still have the issues of working the tubing into the CPU and VGA blocks.

This work in progress is also going to be learning as I go, any and all suggestions are appreciated.

Done anything recently? I want to see how this is progressing :)

You might be able to get red glass paint if you wanted to make those cable red. But drawing from my experience as a designer i'd say you'd want to pick a minor or recessive colour to paint the tubes. Althought they'll look grand clear as well, i'm making suggestions-i'm not saying it needs it!

Give us some more photos, let's see how things are going.

Thanks qoou. I appreciate the compliment. I'm still struggling a little with ideas on keeping the tubing well organized, once I get more done it will be easier to tell.

As for current progress, I am kinda in a holding pattern cause I'm waiting for the frame to get back from being polished and a few bits and pieces in the mail (lightbus, and misc. screws)

I have been trying to work out the wiring though. I'm looking for chrome tubing around 1/4" o.d. to bend and use as wire chases that will run behind the mobo tray, also.. does anyone know what the challenges to shortening or lengthning the power cables from the PSU. For my plan I will need to be able to cut most of them shorter.

anyway.. here's a pic of my wiring diagram so far.

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/fd4a7921.jpg

Next steps are going to be the design for the exterior panel on the Mobo side and cutting the window panel to have a bigger window.

Vaantal
02-14-2006, 11:51 PM
I got to thinking about the tubing. I'm gonna try red uv PCice coolant first to see if it gives me a red enough look, if not, maybe there is a way the stain the tubes to look red.... no judging for brainstorming.

as far as a name.. I'm not sure if Xtasy will still fit after more is done, I was thinking Oblivion, or MetropolisR.E.D. now I just need to come up with something appropriate for the R.E.D. acronym so I don't look silly if someone asks.:)

;) just checked this from school. MetropolisR.E.D. has to be the mods title, im gonna work it into the design somehow... I just got a dremel today so I'll experiment with it tonight. Thinking R.E.D. should stand for Real.Energy.Drawn sort of a play on the amount of effort it takes to plan, obtain the parts and execute this and all the other mods I have seen.;)

let me know what you think. I guess nobody really needs to know as long as it looks cool. 8)

OK... sorry it took so long to post an update, I have been busy at work. So I got the dremel and wanted to test it out. I drew up a cool logo for the mod..taped the original to a scrap piece of metal and started hacking away. Needless to say it was a disaster:mad: , but I learned a few things.
Then I got started on the window for the mobo side of the PC. There will be wiring conduit and other items visible through the window, not to mention the back of the mobo tray.

this is cutting underway

Screw detail (notice the rough cutting.. IT WAS MY 1st TIME :D )

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/panelscrews.jpg

light testing. The bottom window will have the name of the mod painted onto the back of the plexi i think...probably in black.. Im up for suggestions there.

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/panellights.jpg

I still need to cut the other window out bigger...I needed a break from the dremel. Screws on the other side will be the same, but I need more washers..

Once the frame gets back I should be able to start assembly and work out the rest of the wire management.

I'm thinking that I might want to send out the logo to be lasercut, like a plaque that I will screw to the window, anyone know where I might be able to get something like that done, thanks.. Have a good night.

Nice work man, etching the name would be sweet. You could light it from the side, so that the letters seem to glow out of the plastic.

02-24-2006, 11:26 PM
Aww... etching.. I didn't even think of that. Great idea :)

Do you guys have any tips or a step-by-step that I could check out to get me started in the right direction. The idea with the lights is good, I saw a Defyant mod that used LED's mounted to the edge of the plex, would that work for highlighting etching??

Man... so stoked about trying this.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm hoping to make more progress soon, been waiting on components to arrive and working a lot. Keep checking back, I love the feedback it totally motivates me to push on with this mod

Just trying to bring a personal touch to the Digital world. Plus if It's worth the time to make a lengthy post it's worth the time to "Sign" It.


I Started back on boards that sig's weren't an option, so you had to do it by hand, I just keep it that way now.

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY..it's my birthday...doo da doo doo..
anyways.. I finally settled on components. I got everything but the CPU, i'm waiting to see how much this whole adventure has cost me before I can commit to what I can afford for the processor.

here goes

mobo- Asus A8N-SLI Premium
Vid- EVGA GF 7800GT 256mb
RAM- Corsair ValueSelect 2Gb
HDD- Western Digital Caviar 250Gb SATAII 3.0Gb/s 16mb cache
Sound- Audigy2 ZS
Optical- Asus DRW 1608P2S (dual layer DVD burner)
OS- WinXP Pro (upgrading to Vista once it's available, I just hope everything is compatible)

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/acca834a.jpg

Future upgrade will be to get another vid card for SLI and another HDD so I can set up RAID1 for security

I know that i'm not original at all with this set up, but I didn't feel like this was an area I was comfortable experimenting, I wanted tried and true with easy overclocking.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Now with that being said.... and you have the parts now....

GET BACK TO WORK and finish the mod.. Slacker.. hahahah :D

Ahh.. I'm just messing with ya.. Looks like a pretty solid setup to me.

Vaantal
02-27-2006, 09:41 PM
I know... I have been itching to get this thing going for 2 weeks now. I sent some frame parts to get polished to a chrome finish 2 weeks ago, and the guy keeps telling me he hasn't had time to do it. If it's not done by this weekend then i'm gonna tell him forget it and just paint the parts like I had originally planned.

Now i'm gonna go read the user's manual for my new motherboard...(grade a geek here<---)

Yippee skippee tech manual:D

02-28-2006, 05:33 PM
Not too shabby. Good luck with that motherboard though, it's pretty hit or miss. I have a FUBARed one behind me I cant RMA. S'alright though, my A8N32-SLI just came in.

Happy birthday and keep up the good work!

DaveW
02-28-2006, 05:51 PM
I'm guessing the number of people who actually know what FUBAR means is pretty slim-the way i've been told it's an old navy term meaning F*cked Up beyond all recognition.

I'm not actually sure what RMA stands for myself. I might just be being tired, so if it's something obvious let me off the hook, right guys?

Vaantal, i also love reading the manuals for motherboards. They don't exactly work for intellectual posing on the bus, but they're a nice read on the toilet.

Did i really just say that?

-Dave

Vaantal
02-28-2006, 11:32 PM
Okie Dokie... you all got me, It's not really my birthday, just felt like it was because all the new goodies. I had an old birthday song in my head and it extended to my fingers when I posted, but now I know the love I can expect when it really IS my b-day.
Anywhoo! I heard that about these boards as well, but I felt it was more on the positive than negative so I gave it a shot.

Dave..funny, but ...go get some sleep man.

I finally sold my Alienware on ebay, so now I'll have the cash to pay for all this stuff.

I'm feeling good about being able to finish this thing up in the next 2 weeks. stay posted:D

I used to have the same motherboard and it worked fine for a while, then started giving me lots of problems. All in all, I think it was a good board and I got rid of it more because I wanted a crossfire ready board than the problems it was having. I really think the problems were more due to my lack of knowledge than defects, I'm sure yours will work fine and it has lots of cool features! Metropolis RED is coming along great and I think you're doing some great work, can't wait to see it done! Keep it up!

03-05-2006, 10:49 PM
:eek: Big update today, I have been a busy boy:) I have been working steady for about 23 hours in an effort to get this thing finished up only to end in disaster.. well, not complete disaster, but enough to really piss on my Wheaties. I have also realized that I need to stop and take pictures more often. Live and learn I 'spose.

Let's start at about 5:00 pm friday evening. I finally went and picked up the pieces that were being polished. I think they turned out great, you be the judge.

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/chromeparts.jpg

This was the big moment that I had been waiting for.. so I started putting the case back together finally

Right side

Left side

Right side with window on

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/casewindowon.jpg

Once I got this far. took some time to screw it all together and make some tweaks so the side panel fit back on. This was the first point I realized that I should be taking more pictures..anyway

the next thing I did was to install the feet and handles I got. They are handles that I got from work that are designed to go on cabinet doors, but I felt they fit in with the look perfectly

getting ready to drill

a look at both together

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/feetandhandles.jpg

I installed the mobo,psu,dvd,HDD, and fan controller temporarily so I could start with the wiring.

next up was the fan block. the trick here was to get the wires from the fan controller box into little project box I made ages ago, and then get all the fans wire, sleeved, and molexed.

The fan controller was pretty simple. I opened it up to find that it was modular... what a treat (no soldering required)

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/fancontroller.jpg

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/fancontroller2.jpg

so... all I had to do was move the molex power supply to the inside of the box, create a new tail at the right length to install to the power supply slot in the project box.. repeat the process with all three fan locations and....voila

wires have been run to the project box

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/fanbox1.jpg

all finished up and ready to slide into the frame

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/fanbocassembly.jpg

the HDD activity wire got spliced into the Activity LED on the front of the case, and I'm not sure what to do with the temperature leads yet. Im not sure it's worth having the extra wires running around in the case

next up was the fans, pretty simple. I just spliced in wires to make the tails the length I needed, sleeved them and added the black molexes to plug into the fan box.

From here I don't have any pictures of getting the cathode inverters installed, and all the wiring involved in them. I had my headphones on and I worked for about 4 hours and never realized how much time had passed or how long it had been since I took pictures...soooo
I installed 4 cathodes-(2) 12" white and (2) 4" red. One of each on both sides. All the wires are sleeved and the inverters are nestled away under the hardrive. The power ends of the inverters will be plugged into the other project box I made with the chrome RCA jacks.

finshed

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/litewire2.jpg

'since I missed so many of the during pictures all I can show you is the end result

this is the fan controller box. The far right silver wires are from the power supply and the rest are to the fans

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/wiring2.jpg

another view.. this view shows one of the white cathodes running vertically up the face of the frame.

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/wiring1.jpg

this pic shows a lot. the red and white striped twist of wires is the fan controller HDD activity lead that is spliced in by the front led. The large sleeve of wires is the 13 wires coming from the fan controller (3) each fan and (4) for power. We also have the 2nd power cable from the psu that will power the lights and the water cooling pump (more on this later). The leads to the switches for the lights run from the inverted box to through the 3.5" cage to the switches, and finally we have the RCA plugs from the lights plugged into the power box. There are 2 blanks that I can use to add more lights later if I want. There are 2 switches up front that control 2 plugs each.

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/wiring3.jpg

heres the setup for the light switches up front. I needed them to be removable in case they don't work or ever need maintenence

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/switches.jpg

Then I got started on some of the watercooling parts. putting the waterblock on the cpu and mobo, as well as the vid card

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/vidcard1.jpg

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/vidcard2.jpg

thi next pic is a little out of order, because it has very little of the wiring showing, but it shows the mobo installed with the vid and sound card and shows the waterblocks installed

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f83/Vaantal/Custom%20PC/mobo.jpg


That's all the pictures I have for this update.... but the story continues. I made so much progress that I decided to get started on the watercooling setup. I did a number of final touches in preperation for this.

I got all the hoses cut and clamped....oops! wtf there aren't enough clamps. fine I will just use zip ties (first bad idea)

btw. remember way back when I was planning on using compression fittings and lot's of pretty parts for this water cooling... well I could'nt get the fittings to work properly, so I scrapped the whole idea and simplified.. this afforded me less stress by just running the tubing in a straightforward manner.

time lapse.. all the tubes are in and clamped (so I thought), I plugged the motor into a spare psu just to fill the system before I fire it up for real for the first time, At this point I was so excited. The pump is on and the tubes are filling and running, and the air bubbles are bubbling to the surface.. woo hoo! I need more fluid..woohoo turn off the pump to get more fluid, and..crap why won't the pump turn back on..:? hmmm power lead still works..wait is that a leak:? yep, OMG and another:( ..stupid leaks. STUPID PUMP:mad:

moral to the story. Watercooling for beginner's is touch and go. Verdict. I just ordered a new pump and automotive style screw down clamps.

More pics to come. The mod is almost done. Just need to finish up the watercooling system and some final fit and finish issues.

Stayed tuned.. and thanks for caring:D Have a good night.

Very very nice! Everything looks great so far, it's starting to really come together. Maybe I missed something, but did you get those pieces polished professionally somewhere? And if you did it/if you know, how where they polished? That's truly an amazing finish.

EDIT: That was the fastest reply in history, I think. I replied like 2 seconds after he posted... literally.

THAT was the fastest reply ever. haha.

Maybe I missed something, but did you get those pieces polished professionally somewhere? And if you did it/if you know, how where they polished?

I did get them polished professionally. waited 3 weeks for them to be done. They were first cleaned and buffed, then run through a glass blaster to get the sheen started. The high polish was good old fashioned elbow grease (with a power buffer) and a metal polishing compound. A little patience and the aluminum polishes up to a mirror finish.

I was so excited when I finally saw the results, I was skeptical at first.

Wow man.

Wait, that just doesn't cut it...

WWWWOOOOOOWWWW is probably closer to the bone. Those parts are like mirrors. Hurry up and finish this, i can't wait to see how it turns out. Sorry about the leaks in the watercooling, but hey, it could have been much worse. Can you get a photo of the radiator at the back when it's hooked up?

Words actually fail me here. That finish is so nice, words just ain't enough. 2 thumbs up and as many gold stars as you can handle. :D

Thanks Dave. I spent the night tonight testing electrical components. I'm having trouble getting all 3 fans to run at full speed. I think mire 22g wires can't push through enough juice cause when I unplug one, the other 2 work fine. My lights aren't working right either. Live and learn I spose. Ill post more pics when I get the new pump motor on wed. I should have the electrical issues worked out this week as well. Should be finished by Friday (I hope)

on another note. I got the thing fired up today with the stock heat sink on and got xp installed. No issues at all. Loaded Call of Duty 2 on it just for fun and it looks better than ever. Ill run some benchmarks once im done. I don't want to overclock too heavily until the watercooling system is up and running.

nice, i think you need to get a movie clip up though, cause the shinyness makes me confussed and looks kinda cluttered. This is gonna be a sharp mod tho.

Wow, it looks like you put a lot of thought into this before you started. Your window cut on the side panel looks awesome, and your management for all the cables and tubes for water cooling looks very clean. :thumbsup:
