MoonPig's Desk Mod

Nice! Your case/desk gets sicker every time I check this thread! Coolest case on TPU if you ask me.

Duxx · Aug 12, 2009

Been awhile since I checked out your thread but it looks amazing. Love the XLF's, got a set of 4 myself

You aren't getting rid of them when water comes around are ya?

MoonPig · Aug 12, 2009

No :O

Why do you think that?

EnergyFX · Aug 12, 2009

Hey MoonPig, just wanted to say that I have been lurking in this log pretty much from the beginning but never posted. I've enjoyed watching you improve and upgrade your... computer?... more like a desk with cool features.

Anyways, it's a awesome build and congrats on the recent updates. Keep it up! :toast:

woot, my name is now immortalised on paper

awesome stuff, but the reserviour is way too huge

still leads to less temps i assume

it will take more time to stabilize the water temperature, larger reservoir dont lead to lower temps

Two reasons:

- So it showed above the speaker
- Because the EK 250 was out of stock in the UK

EnergyFX, thanks for stopping by

. Btw, I LOVE your Soprano, just wish i could continue with my Armor

hah... the soprano is a turd at the moment! I'm waiting on a few more items to show up so I can really start to turn it into the beauty I have envisioned. But thank you though!

MoonPig · Aug 12, 2009

awwww man i liked that armour rig it was looking very very good

It's sat behind me. When i was working on it, i setup little workshops all over. But i really don't want to do anymore work till i have a proper place to work - and that'll be soon.

That mod is far from over. It'll make a revival.

Moah pics plx.

You see a lot of cases modified, sweet paintjobs and complete interior changes even holes for fans and rads, but c'mon, a desk. That's just plain awesome, a case is a case, but this is a desk lol. Can't wait to see more of this, those Xiggy fans are nice.

MoonPig · Aug 13, 2009

Hmmm... Pictures of what? Nothing else has arrived.

Easy Rhino · Aug 13, 2009

this is still my favorite mod. i dont know if anyone has asked this yet, but where do you plug in your USB sticks?

MoonPig · Aug 13, 2009

My Saitek has a port on the back

Otherwise, it's easy enough to just lift out the glass...

you should somehow work that into your desk!

MKmods · Aug 13, 2009

Hey Moonpig there is something I have been wondering since you started this, why did you mount the mobo that way? (with the GPU facing side to side)

MoonPig · Aug 13, 2009

So it looked neater. That draw is deeper than it is wide, so if it faced 90*, it'd look odd.

I've thought hundreds of times about fitting it the other way and having everything on the top shelf. But, it's just too designed for this position.

Temps are fine anyways, so the difference mounting it the other way wouldn't be that effective.

On a development note, i've managed to resurrect a Xilence 3 Fan controller i have, so now the Rad fans and controllable!

Pictures later on when i get everything tidied up.

MKmods · Aug 13, 2009

its really fun to watch comps that were completed get refined, Well done.

MoonPig · Aug 14, 2009

Well.... Update

No pump today... *sadface*. I've messaged the seller (230269nicola) again.. no word yet.

On top of that, i have a baddddd cold. I've filled my bin with tissue and gone through 1 and 1/2 toilet rolls. Anyone would think i've spent all day wanking... Well i haven't!

MKmods · Aug 14, 2009

I was sick for the last few days (better now) looks kile ColdStorm is a bit under the weather as well.....
Do you thing the cold virus is now transfered by forums?

Get well soon MP :toast:

MoonPig · Aug 14, 2009

maybe? Did you upload the virus with an image both me and ColdStorm looked at? We may have downloaded it... Now it's running on our systems
