Fans are here! Me and the FedEx guy are close at this point. wink.gif

I've got some pictures of them, but first here is the final vote tally on fan color combinations:

Crimson blades on white frame - 12
White blades on crimson frame - 2
Crimson blades on crimson frame - 1
Black blades on white frame - 1
Black blades on crimson frame - 1

Crimson on white is what I'll do! I do truly appreciate everyone taking a look at the color combos with me. Now on to the FrozenCPU package:

Came in two boxes
400

400


42x Noiseblocker M12-S2 Fans
404

400


And these 4x little baby Noiseblocker fans. Cute as can be! Saw them over in asg's build log in this post, and just thought they looked sharp. The rating on these are less than 4 CFM. Ha! They won't move a lot of air, but I just think they are so darn cute! Make sure and check out what asg did with them.

400


and 4x 140mm Noiseblocker Black Silent Pro's

400


and one more Black-Ice SR1 radiator. This one is a 280, and will go in the rear of the pedestal. I love this shot. Make sure and click for larger view.

450


Well.....I've got some fans to paint! I'll document progress over the weekend, and I also want some help selecting fittings. I've got a handful that I will show you in some pictures tomorrow.

Before I start taking the fans apart to paint, I decided last night to just put them in the box so I can get an idea how I want to do the wiring (length, top or bottom or rads, etc.). But when I started putting everything in, I ran into a hiccup. I'm trying to put a 280 rad in the back of the pedestal. It fits fine by itself.....but not when the 480 mounting brackets are installed. It's short of space by just less than 1/2 inch. Look at the picture below. Do you see how the bracket bends inward (to the left of my thumb)?

400


Well the 280 rad in the back has to fit between the two brackets where they are bent inward, and I need another 1/2 inch. You can probably see exactly what I'm talking about in these shots:

400
700
700


I've emailed Jim at CaseLabs with some pictures and ideas on a slightly revised 480 mounting bracket that would leave enough room for the 280 in the back. We will see if he's willing to tackle this one for me. In the meantime, I CAN put the 280 on the outside back of the pedestal, like so:

400
400


This solution would still require me to drill some holes for the tubing to pass through to the inside of the box. Not really what I'm wanting to do.

I'll keep you posted if I hear back from Jim. Does anybody have any ideas or suggestions for making the rad fit? Has anyone else tried to put 3 rads in the pedestal yet?
post #160 of 3252
Can't you cut off the little piece near the radiator?
And no! Never! I'm not giving you permission to cut holes for the tubing! tongue.gif
