After a few months of contemplating whether or not just buy a phase or to just build one myself i have decided to just do it myself. why? most phases are $500+ and are USUALLY in a generic yet decent looking case and have a short suction line which doesn't allow for flexibility in tech-station/ benching situations. most pre-built/manufactured phases are designed to be put under a case such the ever so popular LIAN LI styled cases. i choose to build my own to better suit my wants and needs.
i have sought after a reasonably small compressor to take up as little room as possible. while not as powerful as larger compressors, it will still perform wonderfully for what im wanting to use it for. most people go for the big setups to get as cold as possible but im shooting for -40 degrees Celsius while using easy to find and low cost parts and supplies. i will try to build this for under $200, which i know sounds crazy but im gonna show you that a good quality phase doesn't have to cost more than a water setup.
dont get TOO excited now... this build is going to take a few weeks at the least but please keep watching... it will be exciting!
