my ideas.

I will cut out the back and rivet on a piece of steel for the back panel next i will cut out the central partion and fixs in a piece of frosted plexi glass i will then fix my a8n 32 mobo to the frosted window upside down so the cpu is at the bottem next i will make a new steel top for the case with a window with 2 x 140 fans to expell air from each side of the case next i will mount my psu in the side without the drivebays and i will make some fan mounts at the front and mount a quad 120 fan radiator and the rest of the kit. next i will spray it all black and mount an etched window on the left side panel as if you were looking from behind and i will mount a 250mm fan and a coolermaster musketer on the othe side (right hand side) i will then add my custom made front with a ps one screen and slot loaded drives

my questions

1 with all this technology considering the 10 fans do you think i will need a second psu

2 what size watercooling pipes would you advise for a dual core sli system
also what punp would you advise

3 is it ok to mount an a8n 32 mobo upside down

4 does anyone know of a place to get steel in the uk

5 is it better to use a electric sander or not for the paint job

thanks in advance any help welcome

[Razors Edge]

I will answer the ones I know.

1. If you get 750 Watt, not really.
3. If connections are stable
4.no
5.no, because with hand you have a better idea of what you're doing.

Which dual core CPU do you have? Which nVidia card is in your SLI setup? Are you going to be doing any overclocking, a lot or a little?

[GT40_GearHead]

i will have a x2 4800 and 7900gts yes i will overclock as much a possible


what paint/paint scheme ?!

i was planing on useing car paint spraycans and painting it all black as iv already got about ten cans of the stuff and maybe an oblivion theme (still to be decide)

[meticoeus]

I'm not sure what is readily available in the uk but 1/2" ID is generally used for high flow rate, 3/8" ID is the middle ground as it is easier to find stuff for and anything smaller is for slower flow for more passive cooling style (like the zalman reserator). As you are planning to overclock, I'd recommend 3/8" or 1/2" ID if you can get all of the parts in that diameter.

[sirkillalot617]

thanks thats a real help

[sirkillalot617]

can anyone advise a pump

[Silenced_Coyote]

Go with 1/2" ID tubing and the Laing D5 Pump (MCP655). I think the resellers are Danger Den and Swiftech. Not sure if it goes under and other brand.

Danger Den Store:
