To view this case mod, go here.



Specs:
AMD Phenom 1090t, Asus Crosshair 4, Asus EAH 5870 x2 AMD HAF 932 Case. AMD OCZ Black Edition Ram. Enermax 1050psu. Custom built water loops.

Mods:
I painted the inside of the case classic white, the front panel,inside back panel, and the HAF logo ferrari red. I also painted the outside classic black. I was going for the Asus ROG theme of red,black, and white. There are 2 loops that I fit inside of my case. My processor is cooled by the Swiftech 320 with 6 Coolmaster r4 fans. MY gpus are cooled by a Swiftech 220 with 4 enermaxs fans. There are a few scratches because It took a long time, and a lot of moving around parts to get every thing in place when creating my loops.

The last picture is my old single loop set up. I have made a lot of changes so I decided to create a new thread and delete my old one.

very nice liking the paint job looks tidy mate :)
 
Clean, I like it 9/10. How are those mobo temps? I read about stand-offs being too long and lots of chipset failures. I still will probably get the same board or whatever successor will be out for the next build. Nice paint job on the inside by the way

I usually do not go off the mother board temps. I use core temp, and gpu z. I have had this same block on the crosshair iii, and the crosshair 4 with no problems. The only thing I can see where people go wrong if maybe they tightened the screws to the back plate too much, and creating unevening cooling on their processor, but I am not for sure about people's chipset faling due to this. Maybe this could also cause the mobo to over vault and frying the chipset? I have pushed my voltage up to 1.6v @4.5 trying to get a quick vantage run, and have not had any problems.

Thank you for the compliment.
 
nice.. nearly similar to my rig.. keep it up
