Silverstone TJ07 build - t_ski style - Page 3

Subbed, looking great so far bro!

t_ski · Jun 12, 2011, 05:57 AM

So after a week or two of messing around with things, I'm finally ready to upload some images for you. First, I had to take everything out of the old case:

Everything has been in the case too long, as you can see there is quite a bit of buildup on the rad (mostly drywall dust) and inside the res is some kind of funk.

Parts and cables everywhere!!!

So after some initial cleaning, I placed the mobo on the new tray and started to add the fittings.

As you can see, I am using Lian Li thinbscrews to hold the motherboard in place, and Bitspower compression and rotary fittings. The blue Promichill tubing is 1/2" ID, 3/4" OD and bends nicely, but requires some big compression fittings.

My San Ace 120mm x 38mm monsters needed to be cleaned up, then have their cables sleeved and plugs changed. They come with a 4-pin server fitting, but soon these are gone and swapped for some standard 3-pin black plugs. Black sleeving and black heatshrink finish the look.

I originally wanted to place the San Ace fans on the outside of the rad and use four of them, but there was not enough clearance between the rad and the side panel for 38mm thick fans. I chose to use my trusty blue LED Yate Loon medium speed fans instead.

Two of the San Ace fans still made it to the back side of the rad:

With the PSU in place, the fan was pointed at the rad to add some more airflow to the area.

To add three SSD drives and one 2.5" data drive, I used the Lian Li 4-in-1 bay module.

Here's the motherboard tray slid in the case with one of the GPU's in place.

The 4-in-1 module sits in the bay below the Blu-Ray drive, then Lian Li mesh bay covers fill in the rest of the space.

What are they hiding? Another Yate Loon medium speed fan on the front of a single 120mm rad.

I had previously sleeved the tail on my D5 pump, but it was way too long. I cut it short and resleeved it, this time adding a black Molex connector.

Then i did the same thing to the LED for my Bitspower Crystal LED, but used a 3-pin connector for this one.

Fast forward a little, as this was the frustrating part. I needed to do the tubing, but only had a little time to do it, so some pics got skipped. Then I ran into the issues I spoke of earlier with the leaky res, and trying to get all the air out of the loop.

Finally it was all wired up, and the loop was leak tested and bubble-free. I placed the rest of the components in the system and got it ready for a trial run. Here is the system off:

An finally the system powered on:

sheeeeeeet

this is nice

t_ski · Jun 12, 2011, 09:48 PM

Thanks, guys. I am pretty happy with most of the way it turned out. The only thing I do not like is the ecxess cabling in the system. I was not able to do much with the extra wires below the drives and there is a lot of extra cabling behind the 2.5" drives. I was thinking about doing something like what I used on my mini ITX build:

However, I'm not sure if I am totally satisfied with the Lian Li 4-in-1 module. Someone else had one that allowed hotswap, and I'm wondering if that might fit the bill a little nicer for me here. If I go with that route, I have another idea of my sleeve as well on how to change up the front a little.

Love my AX1200, just be prepared for the loud clicks it makes when powering up

t_ski · Jul 26, 2011, 02:04 AM

Relays, or impending doom?

sneekypeet · Jul 26, 2011, 02:10 AM

one helluva relay! It thumps when the power on the case is pushed....first time I powered it I thought I broke something

BTW, you need some red fans to match the rig

Altered · Jul 26, 2011, 02:25 AM

Congrats on a Very nice system.

I'll keep that in mind when I get it installed.

I don't like the light that the red fans give off very much. Besides, the kids' rig is red. I think red=hot, blue=cool. My CPU cores are idling between 17C and 30C. That's cool...

Fourstaff · Jul 26, 2011, 01:27 PM

One of the cleanest builds I have seen for some time. Would be nice if you can take a good shot with the lights off to show the blue glow

t_ski · Jul 26, 2011, 02:29 PM

My next goal is to install the PSU and graphics card. If I get that done, I'll snap a pic or two for you. Remind me if I forget

Righto.

t_ski · Jul 27, 2011, 03:17 AM

The one thing I don't like about it is that the drives are set in by about half an inch or so, which makes the cables on my PSU hard to fit.

At least it did with the Silverstone. I haven't put the AX1200 in, but I am testing the new 6970 by itself ATM. Looks like I may have to do a reinstall of the OS to get the CCC working again though. It just dies every time I try to launch it, with no errors or anything. I can't set up an Eyefinity group or check on Crossfire settings without it

t_ski · Jul 28, 2011, 05:30 AM

I spent a few hours this afternoon and a few more this evening removing my old Silverstone PSU and taking out the two 6970's.

Then I cracked open the box on the AX1200.

I installed the new PSU and re-ran some cables. Then I got these guys out.

Then I started running the rest of the cables.

The system has defintely gotten louder with the addition of the third GPU and the AX1200.

Although I'm having issues with CCC (and a few other things), I figured I run 3DMVantage to see if all three cards are working. What do you think?

t_ski · Jul 29, 2011, 05:18 AM

New blocks or new monitors? Can't decide...

sneekypeet · Jul 29, 2011, 05:40 AM

so does that AX1200 "clunk" like an old amp or what?

...just grab a single 40" display, sell of your screens to pay for the blocks

It doesn't seem to clunk when I turn it on, but when I power it off I can hear a "blink."

The red LED was pulled from the stock EVGA NB heatsink. The neat thing about the LED is that it pulses like a heatbeat, even when the rig is powered off. I think the yellow one is for the ram...

At least it did with the Silverstone. I haven't put the AX1200 in, but I am testing the new 6970 by itself ATM. Looks like I may have to do a reinstall of the OS to get the CCC working again though. It just dies every time I try to launch it, with no errors or anything. I can't set up an Eyefinity group or check on Crossfire settings without it __________________ t_ski's stuff for sale ~ TPU Eyefinity Club ~ Heatware Silverstone TJ07 build ~ Mini ITX Home Server build Intel i7 3930K ~ Asus P9X79 Pro ~ 4 x 8GB Corsair Dominator Platinum 1866 C9 ~ Triple 7970's with EK FC-7970 CSQ ~ Triple Asus VW246H LCD's ~ 2 x 120 GB Corsair Force 3 (Raid 0) ~ 500GB WD ~ Lite-On BluRay ~ Nickel-plated Heatkiller 3.0 CU ~ D5 with EK X-top ~ BIX Quad Rad ~ Corsair AX1200 ~ Silverstone TJ07

Then I cracked open the box on the AX1200. I installed the new PSU and re-ran some cables. Then I got these guys out. Then I started running the rest of the cables. The system has defintely gotten louder with the addition of the third GPU and the AX1200. Although I'm having issues with CCC (and a few other things), I figured I run 3DMVantage to see if all three cards are working. What do you think? __________________ t_ski's stuff for sale ~ TPU Eyefinity Club ~ Heatware Silverstone TJ07 build ~ Mini ITX Home Server build Intel i7 3930K ~ Asus P9X79 Pro ~ 4 x 8GB Corsair Dominator Platinum 1866 C9 ~ Triple 7970's with EK FC-7970 CSQ ~ Triple Asus VW246H LCD's ~ 2 x 120 GB Corsair Force 3 (Raid 0) ~ 500GB WD ~ Lite-On BluRay ~ Nickel-plated Heatkiller 3.0 CU ~ D5 with EK X-top ~ BIX Quad Rad ~ Corsair AX1200 ~ Silverstone TJ07
