Specs:
CPU: Intel Core i5 "Haswell" 4670K MB: ASUS ROG Maximus Impact VIRAM: 2x8GB G-Skill PC 2400 DDR3GPU: EVGA GTX 1080 FTW Hydro CopperSSD: Crucial M500 480GB M.2PSU: Corsair SF600 (SFX)Monitor: HP Omen X 35Case: modded Istar USA D107 V2 Rackmout Chassis, 1.3ULoop:- Alphacool NexXxoS XP³ Light CPU waterblock- EK-SBAY DDC 3.2 PWM 5,25" pump/res combo- 2x Magicool G2 240 radiators- 10/13 supple tubes - Alphacool 90° 10/13 fittings - Cooler Master MF200R RGB fan
Mods:
Case shortened to pizza-box format.Fan and PSU holes.Custom acrylic cover panel (black, metal red edge)Custom fan grill.Custom watercooling loop
I just wanted to share a case mod which main originality is to be based on a relatively slim rackmount case while being able to host a custom watercooling loop for overclocked CPU and GPU.This comes as a follow-up of my IBM PS/1 projects.- to keep a relatively small footprint, in a desktop, under the screen, format. Yet to be able to host a 35" 21/9 screen. Rackmount case came as an obvious choice. However in terms of depth they are often too short or too long. Moreover 1U would not allow to have an all-internal loop, but 2U would be too massive.- to keep a custom watercooling loop, but this time without an external cooling tower. To do this I chose to use stand-offs and have the air flowing the bottom to top of the case.- to have a sufficiently powerful, yet relatively silent PSU... Modularity would also help with cable management this would exclude 1U PSUs.
