To view this case mod, go here.



Specs:
MSI K8N Neo4 Plat/SLi ~ A64 3500+ @ 2.5ghz (1.49v)
2x 1gb Corsair XMS C2Pro @ 250 (2.5-3-3-7 1t 2.7v)
2x MSI 6800GT @ 440/1050 (78.01 WHQL)
Koolance and DangerDen liquid cooled

Mods:
I bought a koolance pc3-725bk and went all dangerden for the blocks... a TDX and two maze4s... I did a lot of wire management and added some cool lighting...

I have been very leery about going water cooling, worried about leaks mostly, but when I saw this koolance Exos II + lian-li v1000 pre-mod I loved it and decided to take "the plunge" as it were... anyways, I am extremely happy with the v1000 case, it's the best engineered computer case I have ever worked with... well worth the $$ if you can afford one. Anyways, the koolance exos II performs quite well with this case, because it breathes so well with all of the perferated surfaces. Air comes in from all directions and not only keeps the components cool, but allows a LOT of breating ability for the radiator intake... on full blast those two 120mm fans really move some air... on 1/2 way the machine is all but silent... hearing only a small fan noise... sounds more like "wind" really... not bad at all... performs well... cpu 30c idle and 36c full load... gpus 40c idle and 45c full load. :)

Awesome PC. Love that case, couldn't afford that Lian Li so I went with a PC-65B. I love it, I don't think I'll ever buy anything other than a Lian Li again. Nice job on the wires too.

Thanks for the comments! :) I am so happy with this build... The v1000 is awesome. I never knew I could be so excited about a case. lol. I am still dialing in the wiring and lighting... I need to get some better images up soon also.. I sort of threw those up and didn't check them... some are not formatted well. I'll post better ones today...

Nice Mod

With everything in it plus it being water cooled, this is possible the best mod on this site. You can't go wrong with the Corsair XMS Ram. That's what I have in my PC. I gave you a 10.

Very clean. I love the corsair ram. I always throw my extra money into the CPU not the case, but I gotta admit, it's purty!
