    UV Pimp lovin...

    Finally my kit arrived, so here it is installed! Spec in sig:

    At night:


    Insides:


    Nice glowing IDE cables


    Blowhole at the top, looking into the res, used an 60mm-80mm fan adapter to attach the res to the blowhole


    And by day:


    What do you think?

    Thanks

    Cheers.







    The kink above is no where near as bad as it looks there. Am getting some tygon soon, as it bends better and so the tubing wont have to be as long.

    Looks great, it's a playmachine.

    Watercooled systems always look the best

    Thanks for all the comments. Ive changed the layout a bit since i first posted. I wasn't happy with the radiator in the drive bay blowing warm air into my case, so i used another fan converter lol. This one being 80-120mm uv reactive, I mounted the rad to this and then attached it to the top blowhole (saves cutting my v. expensive case! ). The warm air is now being shifted outside the case and my temps are much better.



    Ive cut the tubing down a lot to improve case temps and have now mounted the res where the rad orginally was (am going to get a bayres soon!)

    I have decided to watercool the northbridge too, and my zchip should be here any day now so ill take some more images once fitted. I'm going to try yellow UV dye in the water this time too, should look...well...different.

    Thanks.
