Default {Work Log} Mountain Mods Ascension - Project X
Well the last case I made had some design flaws that will take time to work out. I decided to start from scratch using a Mountain Mod Ascension case.

This system will contain 2 complete loops, one for the CPU and Nforce 200 (when the block is released for the evga classifed) and the other for the GPU's. The cpu loop will use 1/2 tubes and the gpu will use 3/8 tubes. All the tubes will be sheeved.

The color scheme of the parts used will be: a Black case, a Blue loop for the GPU's and its Reservoir, and a Red loop for the CPU and it's Reservoir.

Here are the parts that will be used in this case:

Mountain Mod Ascension - Mirror and Clear panels
Feser X-Changer Quad
Feser Monsta Xchanger
Swiftech MCP355 Pump
Swiftech MCP655 Pump
(2) Custom made Reservoirs By Frozen-Q
Lots of Fans: (16) 120's, (4) 80's and (3) 140's
The computer parts will be the ones listed in my sig (unless I get D0 of sorts)

Here we go...

That case is a little better. Why not some 38mm fans to do those rads justice? Wait that Monsta rad is 140mm correct? No fans for it out?

If the fans I have dont give me the performance I want then I will go to 38mm fans. But I want to start out with low noise at first.
