Re: Project: PrometheusCu
@DonT-FeaR - As always, Thanks a lot mate. I had a kamikaze fly land on my clear coat so I had to sand the keyboard down and paint it again.
Another small update.
I took delivery of my second Aquastream pump today, and I've made the necessary modifications to mount it.
I must apologize for the very crappy images, the lighting is really poor in my basement.
First up I had to modify the 3.5" drive bay to accommodate the height of the radiator and the pump:
Then a small cut to the bottom of the 5.25" drive bay to make room for the inlet fittings:
Here is the pump installed, the install isn't yet finalized I've ordered a G1/4" plastic nipple to help reduce vibrations - and the pump will have a proper mount made for it to alleviate the strain on the outlet port.
My Watercool Heatkiller R3.0 CPU block was shipped late last week, and my NB/SB/Mosfet blocks are were shipped from Mips this morning - I'm expecting them Friday.
The cable sleeves will be shipped on the 18th of November.
More coming soon.
Thanks for reading.
Re: Project: PrometheusCu
Just a shame you didnt flip the motherboard, as you would be able to see those beautiful water blocks without looking at a funny angle. You could always put a mirror in the bottom.
Looks amazing so far. Cant wait to see it with the Heat Killer 3.0 (sounds like the title for a bad action movie:D) What's the internal lighting going to be like on this case?
Re: Project: PrometheusCu
@AMD Killa -Thanks man. If you look back to the early posts you'll see i had some copper acrylic mirrors made for that very purpose. The lighting will consist of 12 BlinkM's and 100 white LEDs - all automated with a custom Arduino circuit/program and the AquaComputer multiswitch.
Re: Project: PrometheusCu
Sorry, I must have missed that post. Sounds like it's gonna look awesome with all that lighting. Can't wait to see it finished, as it already looks amazing.
Re: Project: PrometheusCu
kool
sounds like you got ya plate full with this atm ... cant wait
Re: Project: PrometheusCu
Looking really sweet man, nice work.
Re: Project: PrometheusCu
Another small update.
The very kind folks from performance PC's did me a favor and shipped some bits that I forgot to order super quick.
First up another Scythe Fan:
Why 1x fan you ask?
Because I only ordered two extra the first time around, and I've allotted room in the final base design for the added height of 6x scythe fans. Delivering ~800CFM - realistically lower of course.
Also I'll be cooling the Alix integrated Linux firewall...because...er...um...those 433MHz Geode's are so... hot?. And it looks cool.
Enzotech did a fine shine job on this as well:
Lastly my first attempt at purchasing G1/4 plugs was a fail [see left], so I got "plug plugs" [see right]:
My fillport#1 - more on how these will be used later:
I've also repainted the keyboard, still needs sanding and more coats but it wont stop raining. Many more keyboard updates to come.
more later.
Thanks for reading.
Re: Project: PrometheusCu
Man I love those Bitspower fittings, they look awesome. The keyboard is looking great also, nice work.
Re: Project: PrometheusCu
Looking good! That keyboard is amazing looking. Can't wait to see it with the keys in place. +rep
