Matrix Desk Table PC - Build in progress............

[Matrix74]

Good morning everyone.

I present you with the first project with a work in progress that has lasted for several months.

Son already spent over 10 months since I started the construction of what ultimately became a much larger project than started 7 months ago about ...... and you can see below.

I designed my first installation over 10 years ago, after the Cooler Master Aquagate sink with plexiglass broke in half for no apparent reason, spilling the liquid. That still does not damage went.

Later disassembly, I designed it with an external radiator to 360mm on a cuboid plexy uv reactive, but in the end never mounted .... but I've always remained fixed to want to achieve again one day.
And so we got to today, where the Table Desk enter a bully in our mod .... and so here I am, I also ..... to try to experiment on this adventure Fantastic.

Unfortunately I lost the rendering of the project behind the loss of HD where they were, so as soon as I can, I will try to recover them. Or redo them from scratch .......

I title this project to one of my Favorite Movie. Matrix, that with the camera system, back in 1999, has given rise to what has been the future of technology and the way of making movies.
I do not know if I can put something that makes reference to this film, but I had some projects abandoned for economic impossibility of implementation.

What you see is all made by hand, without the aid of external aid, making do with what level of equipment in the garage because I passionate but with little availability for professional equipment.

I'm looking for some Sponsors ...... who wants included in this my Build ...

My First Project.............





AFTER..........................

 

[Matrix74]

Project start

Here you can see that I cut the panel to prepare the radiators 480 and related outdoor grills

Drilling of the central panel with union connections's hardware

Here you can see instead of cutting back panel where the PSU will get 2 pc.

On the right of this last photo, you can see that has been milled the main plane in order to allow for cable passage under the Motherboard

 

[Matrix74]

In these pictures I made the drilling of the side panels that can accommodate two radiators 360 and one 120.

Tried to install fan of luck to see how the work would be completed.

 

[Matrix74]

ow begins the assembly of the various components.

Here you can see in the back of the desk, the fan / pump / lighting / controller Aquaero LT. I made this choice because I really do not want to waste time looking at an LCD on the front of the PC to change the parameters. Much still has to be configured with its software ..., so might as well have saved that money for other uses.

I've assembled the waterblock and near all'aquaero there is low flow sensor ..... always Aquacomputer.

 

[Matrix74]

Preparation of the plan that will host the tanks tel liquid.......

Try the arrangement of tanks on the desk

Parallel and to 45°

 

[Matrix74]

Here you can admire the bending test tube at 45 ° and fittings PrimoChill mounted on tank XSPC 270.

 

[Matrix74]

Here I had the need to create a splitter from a square bar Plexiglas to try to understand the dimensions in the back of the desk with connections, extension cords and pipes ....

Nice job on the manifold, it turned out very nice.

I'm in freakin' love with your reservoir setup.

What are the round things with wheels in them as part of the loop in your second to last picture?

Flow indicators.

Looking great, @Matrix74

 

[marmiteonpizza]

Flow indicators.

Looking great, @Matrix74

Ahhh cheers
I'm about to build my own loop, are they essential?

 

[Random Murderer]

Ahhh cheers

No, but they look cool

 

[Matrix74]

Flow Indicators Barrow.

Or Bitspower. With a Huge difference in price though.

If you have the rear sensor to be connected to a controller type Aquaero that manages them and the law, they, are important.

Otherwise there are no sensor and cost less. Are only for aesthetic ..... but visually we can realize if the fluid flows well.

Forgot some of them actually have RPM sensors

I really really want to do a build in a desk. Someday, just not this extravagant. This is sweeeeet!!

 

[FreedomEclipse]

Does it...... Does it know kung fu?

Its been a long time since ive seen anything matrix related. Theys dont even do reruns of the movies on tv no moar.
