Default Phase Cooled Dual Loop Lian Li By RetroGamer1990

[CENTER]This Project has changed so many times I couldnt keep track of it anymore! So I have decided to just post hardware and cooling specs on the first page along with pics/vids of the latest progress....

Youtube Vid: Taken on a cameraphone, so yes, its poor quality, yes I know i sound like a muppet, and Yes, I know, I am a crappy presenter. I didnt plan what to say at all, so its a little muddled. its just a quick progress vid anyway. I'll do a proper on when Its complete

This Project would not be possible without:


Little Devil < Click for link to contact him
His phase unit is, frankly, amazing. He sprayed the compressor white for me, the condensor black, and custom made it to my measurements, its just fantastic!

Duniek < click for link

Duniek is making the custom waterblocks for my motherboard, so I can hopefully reach some stupid clockspeeds hes a great guy and funny at times and he does EXCELLENT work

Hmm, it'd be worth it if you invested in some better components...

Also, 45nm Quad won't work on that 680i

Hate to burst bubbles but you cannot use 45NM quads on 680i's, otherwise killer build!

Finally getting started on this!
okay, after much debating, decided on a motherboard. I wanted the mobo to have 3 or more PCI slots, support SLI, and have a blue and black colour scheme. I ALMOST went for an AMD 790FX-GD70 but at the last minute found a BFG 680i, and well, I already have an intel system so it made sense not to start all over - besides this board has SLI and the AMD does not

enough waffle! pics!







in the above picture, the first PCI-E 1x will hold a soundcard, then the two black x16 slots will hold a GX2 each (in SLI!) then maybe a third later but for now an 8800GT in the middle slot

not my most professional pics I know.. :/

there you have it. case coming in the very near future, and the phase unit should be ordered up soon too

thanks for tuning in
