okay! a small update.

the reason that this mod has been on stand by for a while was beacuse the reservoirs leaked sadly...
it went so bad that fluid was going in between the plastik and the metal on the top, so had to find new reservoirs... only problem, they had to be 60mm in diamiter to fit in. and such reservoirs is hard to find
asked xspc if they could make costum reservoirs but sadly no.

so only thing to do:
1: make them myself.
2: fizzle around with some premade

i choose nr. 2

took 2 of the 150 ml xspc reservoirs and since they were 70mm in diamiter i had to cut away some. but only so they just fitted into the top whole:

so i went ahead and killed the little buggers!

dismantle the old ones i loved them but cant use something that leaks -.- i thought about buyin a pair of new ones, but i just dont think that they can manage the preasure and passive temps, which i want to play a bit with :/

and here to show the leaky part:

and how it fitted (with a little violence with the dremel)

one down another one to go

im probertly gonna end up doing a litle cover plater to make a smoother "edge" between the res and the case top

with modyfied top (originally to wide)

light from the blue bouble light (think this is gonna look cool in the dark)

note that in theese pics fluid already has been filled in

so how its gonna look compared to the old. a big bigger and not transparrent but... ill survive.
and its alu i know, but i hope to be alright with the amount of anti corrosion fluid thats in lol

i dont know when ill have the time to do the other one, but for now:

marry christmas and happy new year!

Man that really sucks about your reservoirs leaking. The new ones look great though, a worthy replacement.

thx man! yeah.. they were the only one i thought went good with the case. they are to high sadly:/ but they cant get any lower

[The boy 4rm oz]

Passive reservoirs for a passive cooled case lol.

So.. a small update.
Its been a while but ive had a thing or two between my hands (or on my feets should i say…)
Rules are made to be broken lol

That’s me, with the baby size ski´s

For some reason this route was closed and called “the murderer” we had to find out why… took us an hour to get to the bottom of the valley xD on normal routes we could run that trip in 5 min.

Well.. on to the mod!

As you can see I already installed one of the new reservoirs. And I did not have the time to start on the other one since I knew it was going to be a b#tch to install

Had to take the back plate of again. What a mess:/

Note the bracket I used to keep the wires in the hole made for them to slip through xD the little whole all the sata cables are going through is the one that’s barely visible on the other side.

This is the space I have to work with :/

Now this little thing is going to be hard to get out xD

“working it”

And as usual the watergods didn’t thought nice of me, so on of my fittings went mental.. but I don’t belive in gods so on with it

And a little neat feature I made on the raddy fan cover

And a very very bad pic of how it turned out. I have a few plans on how to make a smooth erm… “melting”? between the res´s and the top. But that’s gonna be later

I have talked with one of my friends about getting some nicer foto´s of the whole case, (he´s a camera geek) so I hope to get some better pics up soon

Don’t know how much I will be able to work on the case the next amount of time though… my car just broke and at the same time some sh#t f#ckers decided to break the rear and front window and steal my sound system but life goes on

Ill cu!
Comments and stuff are as always greatly appreciated!

The other one were different, but nice too. Maybe you could re-use them in another mod, if fix the leakages.

New ones have... i don't know... gear feeling
