Can't wait to see the Water-Cooled Pic's

Welcoome to PimpRig, lord_tris...

welcome to PR lord_tris.. hope you stick around to pump out some more mods

this is a nice welcome thank you all in advance for the future ones too

i plan on doing some more

and stick around as there will be alot of modding done to the case the weekend

ie: the cd rom hole cut and the face plate attached to the case its self

Welcome to PR....this is a great intro for yourself!!! One quick comment and sort of question for you. Are you going to put a thin layer of plexi behind the mesh? You will get a hell of a lot of dust in there if you dont. Thats all from me, looks great otherwise!!!!!

no there will not be an obstructions as there will be a radiator for the watercooling in the front

and thank you for your post

I've been looking to get some of that modder's mesh for a while. Is it easy to work with?

By the way, i can't wait to see how you're gonna front-mount that radiator. I can't quite see it in my head, so it'll be a nice suprise .

Albedo, I used used some modders mesh in my executioner case mod. I had no problems forming it into the shape i wanted. It very flexible and easy to bend.
If your looking for that kind of effect.
Go for it!!!!!!!
Just be careful after you cut it. It's pretty sharp and until you smooth out the edges it could easily cut your hand open.

As for this thread good case mod so far. Im looking forward to seeing you incorporate this rad into this case. Dont forget it doesnt always have to be on the inside. You could make an enclosure for it that sits on top which would alleviate any radiator sizing problems and getting a rad that can handle your system requirements. Just my two cents......

Keep up the good work.....and MOD ON!!!!!!!!!!

i am trying to keep it all inside the case as it will be more portable that way (lan parties)

Great stuff!!!


Would like to see the finished mod. ( How is the CD-Rom going to work?)

Not too sure yet on the DVDrom yet, I think though I want to do a stealth drive just not sure yet how I want to do it.

I see alot of stealth drives that use either full blank panels, or something else the size of the entire drive. I remove the front panel off the drive completely, and then you can either make a door just big enough for the tray to go through, or put the tray cover back on after some modding. I glued a piece of aluminum on the tray cover on one case (it came from the hole I cut), and just painted the it to match my case on another project. Maybe you can cut the mesh and somehow tack it on to the tray.

BTW WELCOME! PR is the place where the procs are cool and the cases are smoking! Apparently you are fitting in quite well with this project!

For some reason, the pic makes that rad look alot smaller than 80mm. To me, it looks like it's about 2 inches.. maybe my sense of measurement is off.

Other than that... i love the color of the fluid you used in the loop. It looks like some kind of alien-blood-pus-and-guts. Looks more solid than liquid.. i just love the way it looks (at least in that pic).

Also, i like the swirly plastic stuff you used around the tubing. Is that anything special, or is it just the same stuff used on spiral notebooks?
