To view this case mod, go here.



Specs:
Intel(R)Core(TM)2DuoCPUE4600@2.40GHz oced to 3.1ghz
EVGA GTX260 216SP SSC EDITION,WATERCOOLED
Creative X-Fi Audio Xtreme Music

corsair 4GB DDR2RAM
3 SATA HDD without raid
samsung Dvd combo drive
21.6 Samsung Synmaster 2253LW
G15 logitech keyboard and G9 gaming mouse
aerocool V12 1000w modular psu
swiftech gtz
swiftech res rev 2
swiftech mcp 350 pump
2 swifech 120x2 rad
bitspower compresion and ek fittings
feser 1 uv reactive 1/2 tubings
feser 1 uv blue coolant

Mods:
this time i decide to powdercoated my whole casing black which include the interior,as b4 the DIY spray paint does not last long enough and peel off bit by bit.well is nothing much of a self moded case i shud call,but it just a bit of relooping my watercooling as i add in a NB waterblock.

change my cpu block from swiftech gtx to gtz as the copper top of the gtx is going thru oxidation and not clear as b4 so i prefer to use the gtz which come with an delrin housing and also getting a ek NB wateblock for my P35 chipset,lastly not to forget EK fullcover waterblock for my EVGA GTX260.Well after all is complete im very please with temp result im getting which my both cores idle at 31C and my gpu idle at 40C which is a huge improvement compare to last time.at full load my cpu will only get as high as 50C and my gpu at 49 to 53C

Yeah more pics!
And whats up with this OC?
Its really small considering your cooling!
Give that cpu 1,5 volts for 4ghz!
Its really wasted money all this water if u dont stress your hardware enough!

guy's thanx alot for all your comments good or bad all are welcome,regarding the oced i still need more guidelines to it as i just stick my nose into the oced thingy.the problem is i cant go anymore higher that 3.1ghz im not sure wad i did is rite...here are my bios setting

fsb : ram = 1:1
fsb = 259
multiplier = x12
dram = 800/518(if im not wrong)
pcie volt = 101
vcore = 1.38

a few more setting i forget what did i put on,but if i oced higher that i've done now it will not be stable during gaming and it goes BSOD...SO TO ALL OCED GURUS OUT THERE CARE TO GIVE ME SOME TIPS

Be sure to find the key that gives u access to the advanced bios feautures...
I think it might be F9 but i am not sure at all.There is one though for gigabyte mobos,google for it.
Then in the oc section of your mobo try googling the voltage settings mainly and increase the voltages carefully.
There are many OC guides in the net.Try googling and u ll get many results!
I tell u all this cos u have a WC CPU and CHIPSET but no real heavy OC as u should! :)

hmm...thanx theorw,i will try to double check my bios again as now im packing and getting ready to move to a new place.but just to confirm again my mobo is P35-DS3 and my cpu is E4600 how high will able to go..??and can it be used for long term under oced setting..??lol i know maybe some of u thought my cooling is overkill but from my point of view im still way beyond other modders out there which more highend parts and watercooling hardware.

well just relax bout it!
as long as u like ur own build that's ok!
the point of TPU Case Gallery is to share ideas anyway..

i think ur build is excellent! nice layout, and neat!
i had plan for similar WC looping before, but didn't go on cuz don't want to mass mod the case, so finally i ended up with single loop.. maybe will apply the idea to next RIG.

it's a great idea u got there!

and u should benchmark it to the frontier!

welcome check out my rig!

8/10 ! peace out!

one question, why dun u get a better mobo since u already can afford all of that classy cooling system???
thx!

very very nice, I love your W/C nice job and don't pay attention to hatters; just as long as you are happy with what you did don't bother.
by the way I'm jealous but you deserve high rating so 8/10 from me and as a suggestion Replace the Front Red LED with a blue one and you are set. Good luck and wish me luck with my case. http://www.techpowerup.com/gallery/2292.html

yea i agree with Duke Guru
getting a CM 23cm Blue Led fan isn't expensive, but ur RIG will looks a lot better than now~
just mod a lil of color scheme!

but anyways, this is just a suggestion! as long as u happy with it..

good luck bro! peace out!

howard and duke guru..thanx to both of u that not only vote fairly for me but also give good comments and ideas.yeah alot of my frens also asking wat's up will all this expensive cooling on a midrange hardware,so yup i spend too much on cooling till i have not enough cash for hardware,but for sure this is my forever gaming rig system spec i just need to wait for right time to replace a few like mobos,cpu,ram,hdd and might as well add another gtx260 as i cant afford to change to dual gpus as i will have to buy another gfx waterblock as from my point of view is hard for me to sell out a gfx that include waterblock.

yea nice rad setting, lovely temp!!! can't imagine the temp when u fit 2 Fesers 360 in your RIG!
anyway, would u mind to tell me your ambient temp, and which region u live in?

am not gonna hardcore OC my RIG, cuz it's summer here, but in the coming winter, i'll change setting to 4.3Ghz

currently am still doin' pretty similar setup around 3.3Ghz, my idle is 29-30'c (if air-con turned on is 20-23'c) full load is around 48-51'c, but my GFX is very hot! dun wanna say it hahaha..

my ambient temp is around 27-34'c

thx and peace out! (sorry for the double post, accidently clicked the button)

i leave in asia country in singapore if heard b4(im sure everyone know where is that)im not sure wad is the ambient temp as never measure it b4 but i can tell u from what my body can feel everyday,is quite hot and sometimes humidity is the issue.my rig is place in my masterroom well is none air condition room so i guess that why im into watercooling.well yeah i've been eyeing and eager to get the TFC monsta rad but the price is always why pushing me back,maybe one day i will buy if the price and the exchange currency is lower a bit.nice temp u got there on your cpu,for your gfx lol is the matter of time soon im sure u gonna watercooled it.....thanx for all the good comments and advice
