Quite original but good naming scheme, or the NoiseMaker, would be equally accurate these 120mm fans have me a bit confused right now, need good looking LEDs, and good spin rate, up to 2000RPM or so and then must cost less then like $8 or so... In rands thats like R100 or so... Hmmm anyone know anything about the TT Thunderblade 120mm LED fans?

Well, I finally did my large mod lol.
I am using a Freezone Elite TEC watercooling From Coolitsystems and wanted to insert a TFC XChanger 240 Dualrad into the loop, to bring down the load temp.
Ordered the stuff (got the kitkat for free, lol):

Radiator:

Tubes and stuff:

Reservoir:

Sleeved some fan extension cables:


Sleeved the FZE:


And now the case. I planned to mount the rad on top of the case.
I already took out the honeycomb from the top a while back, but now I have to enlarge it to fit the radiator:

Done:

And now I have to drill some holes in the chassis itself to let the ubes in and out :

Done:

With the rad on top:



Installed everything and this is the result:



And it indeed took down my load temps with 5C-6C.

Thanks for the tip,

No the deltas are not on the mobo. They're connected via noctua lna and ulna (no fan controller yet) to psu molex

Weird. After a night of prime, the GPU fan turned off.

I don't know why but when I saw that kitkat I yelled, "Woooo! kitkat!"

@ XenoMopH

Looks nice, little overcrowded for my taste, but its good... Good stuff in that PC of yours

Does any of you guys by any chance has DUAL RED CATHODES in their CM? I was like 30 seconds from buying them and decided to ask you guys 1st if you got any pics to share? GREEN will do too...

Tnx

P.S. just found this photo from back when i bought my CM690... looked good then too

Let the bells ring out and the banners fly I'm here,I'm here

Hey folks, finally took the plunge and ditched the old Tt wing rs and moved
my stuff to a new 690.

Still working on a fan setup, once I get that sorted I see some modding in my future.

Having some trouble cooling the video cards,as you can see by the pic below the top card is sucking hot air right off the back of the lower card.

I think I might try pulling the fans off those twin turbos and make wind a tunnel.

The only con so far is the hdd bay blocks any kind of air flow from the front fan.

Well thats it for now.
More pics later.

I got a Q guys, would it be wiser to face my new CPU cooler (CM Hyper TX 2) upwards so it blows out the top, or face it backwards to blow out the back? as long as i achieve the best temps then i am happy, or should i just test it all myself?
