New stuff: A Sycthe Himuro Hard Drive cooler

2 MCW60s

Really cool hard drive cooler, I like the sleek look

Its like a giant heatsink

EK Supreme

I took the case apart for a new cut on the divider

And here is the cut.

4870 x2 with the Enzotech ram sinks

Sorry about the really ugly Noctua

Sorry about all the fingerprints. I'll clean those up. Plus I still have to clean up the wires some more.


Thanks for looking

A physical rough draft of the reservoirs. I went with my plan.

The 4870x2 decked in copper. Notice the giant ramsink tower in the center.

The unseen side of the TJ07.

I made some orange water by sawing up some orange highlighters for the Extract

I put a UV cold cathode right above these 2 UV reactive fans. Should be a cool effect.

The pumps in place. Messy yes, but also functional.

I stealthed my DVD drive. I glued a screw to the button that retracts/attracts the DVD tray. Now i can just tap on the bottom left corner and it will perform normally.

The finished product.

The flagship in the hangar.

My new Q9550! Fresh from RMA.

I'm gonna stealth the messy parts of the case too!


The 4870x2 was bowing like crazy! The is the first fix that came to mind. Its not the most pleasing to the eye, but trust me, its way less of an eye sore than a bowing 4870x2.


Thanks for looking!!!!
