Very nice setup...

PC specs.

I got bored and re-did my whole water-cooling system, I combined my existing Reserator 1 + Fan Kit with a Reserator 1 Plus I had "lying around", to make a dual Rad/Pump/Res single loop. Helps performance a bit and looks 1337!

Cable management looks bad, but it's not - the wires are at the side so theres a "tunnel" of air going through.

I'm missing 1 GB of RAM because it died, and my second GFX card (the 6600GT) keeps overheating, but meh.

For reference...

Water goes from the Black Reserator, through my PC to the CPU block, then back out to the Blue Reserator, then through to the Black one, then to my PC again...

EDIT - I was so bored I actually took all the tubing out, swapped the CPU block for an identical one without a tiny scratch on the bottom and re-seated the heatsink on the GPU using a small amount of AS5...

What the... man you have to do some WM, it's like a jungle.

that's a computer in a V8 form

The wiring is along the side of the case - theres "clear space" in the middle, it's just hard to see in the pics...

It could be better, but you're lazy.

Nice rigs guys. This summer, I plan to post up my work in progress benching station.

My whole computer is apart, just need to file some aluminum and get some tools before I start cutting my boards.

YOU LIE!!!

Lol, anyway - in other news, this is the case I would buy if I could afford it. The freaking coolest case ever made. It has a freaking RAID hot-swap board and a bunch of other sweet-ass features.

Nothing new from me, just better pics.

It would overclock fine, at least until 2.8 GHz, on the stock heatsink (fsb 400 to have the RAMs at 800MHz with a 1:1 ratio) but if I dare to touch these settings in the BIOS my PCI_EX 16x has the absolutely brilliant idea to become PCI_EX 1x, which kinda defeats the point of overclocking.

I know, my case rocks.
Actually, I might be looking for a case which doesn't look like a gravestone, and ISN'T black, because the room isn't very well lit.

EDIT: and it would be good if it didn't cost a fortune.

That isn't very precise...what do you mean by passively cooled graphics card?
Chances are it's a low end model.

I don't want to make advertisement for hardware manufactures since I can't identify myself 100% to any of them.


But I can say that the CPU is not a Intel, the motherboard is not Asus, the memory is not Crucial and the GPU is not made by Nvidia. There you go have fun guessing

Don't worry, it isn't advertising.
Now spit out your specs!

Athlon X2 4800+
4Gigs Corsair memory
Gigabyte AM2+ motherboard
Sapphire HD 3870 Ultimate edition

Haven't got much time testing the system yet. The CPU does not seem to be much faster than my previous one (3800+) But the graphics card is much faster. I had a 6600GT before.

Since it's a fairly powerful card, how big is the cooler then to be passive?
