Home-built watercooling tech-station

That's more like 2.0 :laugh:

The good part is 1.0 only cost me about $5 in parts to build

nice start T! i think that it needs more integration you know, it should be more integrated together, and not just seperate.. perhaps painting the desk would make it more integrated, and perhaps a metal cage around the rad or something you know? make it feel like one big thing, and not seperate things..

Nice

,great for slapping a board in for a quick test,or taking outside in sub zero temps for some mad as a hatter oc'ing :rockout:

Cold Storm · Jul 22, 2008

Glad to see it didn't cost you much! I'd start beating myself with my kendo sticks if I spent more then that on that! :laugh:

Could you fit a lcd mounting arm to it too? might be useful.

t_ski · Jul 22, 2008

Maybe, but I was running it with my 32" LCD TV

erocker · Jul 22, 2008

I noticed you are using some of the hardware from my tech-station. Can you purchase it separately?!

t_ski · Jul 22, 2008

Like what? I bought the L-brackets and the plastic feet at a hardware store, plus the bottons & LEDs are left-overs from case mods.

Other than that, I did "borrow" a lot from the online instructions for the Tech Station (measurements, etc, especially for version 1.0).

aximbigfan · Jul 22, 2008

I like it! Is the water system on its own power supply?

No, it doesn't need to be.

Ok, I gotcha.. It just looks exactly like the layout, with the nylon standoffs and everything! I like! :toast:

+1

the white looks weird 0_0

otherwise, crazy lol

I should spend the time to make one as well... those tech stations are pretty pricey, a home made one would work great

DaMulta · Jul 22, 2008

I need one of these........

My desk is about 6 feet long and I barly have room for my mouse pad.

2 keyboards in front of me alone.....the works lol.

intel igent · Jul 22, 2008

don't they have those mice that slip on the end of your finger and can be used as a pointer? or am i just having a flashback :twitch:

Hayder_Master · Jul 22, 2008

really cool , very nice work , so im try to built one like it

steelkane · Jul 22, 2008

well after looking at it, I feel your layout is really good, as for the material use, plexiglass decks with plexiglass rods stands would look awesome with some light bars installed. but all that would cost more & yours looks great just the way it is.
