OBS! (Overkill Bench Station)
 
So, i like watercooling, A LOT! And that have lead me to a derail on my PC-Beto project.
I recently got the Phobya radiator stand and fell in love with it.

I then talked with aquatuning about making a project over this thing, because as you might know, overkill is underrated.

Watercooling and hardware supplied by:
http://tosed.dk/billeder/OBS/1.gif

It didnt take long for Christian from aquatuning to agree to send some stuff to make this overkill station

Please notice! This "build" will feature minor modding, and LOTS of watercooling!

Now this was how i recieved the radiator stand, now lets get some hardware into it;)

http://tosed.dk/billeder/OBS/2.JPG
Here it is, filled up with some stuff Christian already sent me.

But trust me, there will be much, much more stuff in this stand;)

I already have the finished list of parts, but i dont want to say to much:D But as you might have guessed two more 360´s might find its way inthere:idea:
This is actually all for now, but i hope to continue this in a few weeks when i get some more hardware!

Hope this have caught your attention;)

Holy jesus, I can't sub enough times to justify the awesomeness of that stand. :toast: Can't wait to see what else happens!

Damn that's a big stand you could cool a V8 engine in that thing with the right rad.

On the more useful side you could have independent loops for different components so there would be easier to swap.

Also i would try to mount the pumps and a powersupply for all of them above the rads

lol'd! that was naughty! :laugh: You forgot that part though cry... That seems much more complete: But can it cool a fermi while playing crysis?

Haha, overused joke it may be, but it always makes me spit on my screen! :laugh:

I started out by prepping the radiators with fittings:

http://tosed.dk/billeder/OBS/update_2/2.JPG
And then took the fans out, and they shine nice and red;)

http://tosed.dk/billeder/OBS/update_2/3.JPG
Now, a tiny problem, the QD´s couldnt really fit beacuse of the radiators.

http://tosed.dk/billeder/OBS/update_2/4.JPG
Badabim, badabum, problem solved. Just turn the radiators! This also makes the tubing look a bit better.

http://tosed.dk/billeder/OBS/update_2/5.JPG
I also had to connect the radiators in series.

http://tosed.dk/billeder/OBS/update_2/6.JPG
This was simply done with small lengths of tubing.

http://tosed.dk/billeder/OBS/update_2/7.JPG
Now this is something that i doesnt do often, a shot with a messy background:P I was in the middle of figuring out how to run the tubing the best.

http://tosed.dk/billeder/OBS/update_2/8.JPG
And tell me, doesnt this look badass!?! Dont mind the tubing on the left, i ran out, so that piece was to short lol!

http://tosed.dk/billeder/OBS/update_2/9.JPG
I wanted to route the tubing on the left like this too, but i didnt have enough. It fits great in between the fans, and is very stealthy inthere!

http://tosed.dk/billeder/OBS/update_2/10.JPG
And in case you are wondering why i placed the fans like i did, this is the reason. They are just so damn easy to clean! Just pull of the blades, and whipe them off :D

Thats all for now. I need to get some more tubing, and get the MiniNG installed ;)

Later!
