Hi, just about to start my first watercooling build.

Radeon 4870/1gb
Enermax Galaxy/1000 watt
Samsung spinpoint/500gb

New parts ive got or ordered....

D-tek fusion V2 (courtesy of Lloyd from Limited edition computers)
Laing DDC 18W pump and EK DDC top

EK-FC4870 gpu block
XSPC Bay Reservoir (Clear)

Decided to spray the internals black with a little bit orange so i need to strip the case and prep it.

I'm looking foward to seeing this
Are u planning on putting a 120.2 rad in the roof too?

[Ya Mother]

Yes thats the next thing im gonna get...just seen a mod on chilled pc where some guy copied toms
(the owner) idea with these home made brackets....http://www.chilledpc.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=8271
I havent got the gear to make these so im a bit stuck at what to do to mount it.

How much?

Thought i would make a start painting today as the sun was shining.
Was too cold to paint tbh, so i had to warm up the paint first before priming and also the bits i was gonna paint with the wifes trusty hairdryer.



Primed....



and finally..



Hope to make a start on the case soon.......

Painted the internals black, had a few problems with the paint running and it being very cold...eventually sorted it (will post some pics soon) still waiting for some stuff to be delivered. gpu block, braiding etc....sent my universal nb water block and mosfet coolers back to chilled...decided to get a p5q pro and get proper blocks for that eventually.
Gonna flush the rad tmoro with some vinegar and hot water. then fit the fans.

[Ya Mother]

No....its defo gonna have orange in it.....just not too much as it will look tacky.....orange and black looks better methinks.

Now thats looking nice m8

Thought i would fit the triple thermochill pa120.3 rad in today.
Bought some little boxes from maplins for a plinth to lift the rad up too be the right height for the side mesh, held on by some double sided car plastic trim tape.......



Put some velcro on the bottom for easy removal and to hold the rad in place.
