Well, no rad today... It'll come in on Monday I guess... Grrr... Wish We could get our staff back! Good old Government!

Monday for sure, you order it ground? PPCS if I order Monday I get it Wednesday. So its really one day, remember they don't count the day it ships.
 
I ordered it USPS 1-2 day shipping.. IT didn't even ship out til Friday. I ordered it Thursday early morning..

hmmmm yeah it should have arrived today. check the label when you get it, see how they send it, maybe they didnt send it as you requested.
 
All good on it all.. USPS will have it updated tonight and we'll see where it is.. It's not a big thing since it's not really "wanted" yet... I still gotta weight for the res.. Which I heard his stuff for it didn't get there yet also... so It's on hold... lol ;)

ah ok so no worries then. But still just the fact that you could have had it. Even if I can't use it I love having the hardware man, its just soo nice :laugh:

Sorry to hear about the res man, hope it gets done soon :toast:
 
Yeah, I'm with you CP... It's all ways good to have the stuff! Only time I ever get pissed about shipping is with newegg... I pay 40 bucks for overnight, and they send it somewhere else! Boy wouldn't you!!

:laugh:

yeah thats bad bro, did they send it somewhere like completely off, or at least nearby, wrong appt. or something?
 
First one was sent via ground when it was suppose to be over night, second one had "plane" issues and was stuck.. Then the last was sent North of the factory they sent it from, Illinois, instead of South, Florida! lol

Update: Now, can you find the res?

All right, so after someone that is subscribed to this thread, has found the res. I thought since There is now a "better" picture of it, I'd let the world know it!

CP, I give you

Super Mario Cookie! For a SUPER detective job! :toast:

Just know CP, I'm very

So, now that I've done that... For the res... I don't have it yet since it's still being built. So, I thought of doing a mock set up of the water loop. Yep, I don't have the availability of the res, rad, pump and loop.. But if your a builder, you can think of something!


For starters... I only did a mock build of the res and pump. I really didn't think I needed to build a mock rad since if I can have the measurements of the rad, then I can just place the "tubing" in the right places... Am I right?

Now, the building of res. From the website of the builder, he leaves the dimetions of the res. both the With and Length. With that I can build the res from things around the house.. First off my thoughts where a Paper Towel roll. But, it's not as wide for what I need, & I would have to use a new one just to unwind it to get the length and then cut to length.. Not worth it... So, I look to my drink for the answer.

Then after a while at the work, It came to this

DSCN1732.jpg


Now, what is this? I have a promotion on XS? nope.. It's a little hit for where the res resides.. If you can find it, you can look at it! The guy doesn't post here, so that's the best I can do.. Besides, He just showed it off, so why not!

I have the the thought of where to place it. Easier said then done, but still after seeing his full mock, I can get my thoughts around it!

Via-la!

So, after that, i had to make a mock up pump. Easy to make. I took the box of my 780i NB fan, and then cut a cup in length to cover what the length of my pump. The box is the right size for the extra top that I have on it, so the cup was easily just made for the motor it self.

Moving on to the mock set-up loop. What I did with this mock set up is to place the pump where I think would be the only place for it. Length wise and so forth. Then from that, I made the cuts in order to fix the pump to have both a inner and outer ports.. Looking around, I didn't have any string to do the loop, so I found in the garage a old telephone power cord. cut the ends off and then tore it apart to have two lines. It works out great because I have both the negative having white striped line on it, and positive having just plain black. So, I can use it to show how the mock is set up.

Now, the set up For it all

DSCN1748.jpg



So, there you have it. I just need the major things then I can finish it all up. But, Mock set upss are all worth Wild! I can allow everyone to know my thoughts on how I may set it up. Now, this is a May.. if you can think of something else.. let me know.. I'm all "eyes".

Well, thank you for your time. I know this was a long up date. Now, if you haven't taken the time in between the reading of this update, to find the res.... Get to it! You may not get a cookie, but BY GOD, will you think of it as ONE SEXY PIECE OF WORK!
 
:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::roll::roll::roll::roll::roll:

dude although I give you mad props about the mock up work and it does prove its point more than well. I just can't think of anybody who would think of that :laugh: Bro that was brilliant.

Is your tubing really going to be that small though? :slap:

anyways, that setup is going to look ridiculously awesome! <<<how does that look? Well I'll just wait till you put it together to find out



:respect::respect::respect::respect::respect:>>>to Cold Storm


BTW, I think your version of the Res looks much sexier :rockout: :laugh:
 
...oh and I forgot to comment on your cookie. I've gone through a roll of bounty already, I just can't stop letting go of those tears, it was sooo generous of you man :cry:
 
lmao.. Nice one CP! thanks for it. I just now have to wait for the parts and then get to it!

The tubing will be a lot bigger! :roll: But, there is a psu that I forgot to throw in there... so it will be somewhat different.. But, then again.. Every mock up you ever do, you have a change or two..

:toast:

Now, how does it feel to "finally" know? I keep you guessing all this time.. Then even did the run around with wording today talking with ya! Fun, Fun, FUN!

It was about that time. I ain't active much on XS, but I do go on that forum a lot and I had seen this before. But never came to my head that you were getting one. Until I got interested in one :laugh: I warn you. You are to be copied very soon :laugh:
 
Hey, that's what Project logs are here to do! Inspire everyone! Now... If you get your Liquid Chaos/Fusion before I can get my Liquid Fusion.. I'll be a very unhappy man! I'll eat the cookie, and other things! :roll:

:roll: LMAO!! You really can't wait, can you CS??? :roll:
 
Told yah CS that he would figure it out soon enough. I didn't even tell him. mock setup looks pretty cool man.

Where you putting the rad again?
 
Rad is going up top. 480 rad! :rockout:

Now, what I'm thinking of is how to shorten the loop. That's my Main thing to do.. I got an Idea on it, Just have to wait till I get home tomorrow and the rad in my hand and stuck to the top of my case! lol.

No don't worry, no funds for this now. You'll have it before me. Although there is somebody who is about to get his. Not me of course.

Should I post our conversation from AIM, you did tell me! :laugh: j/k

Naw I just came across the res and it hit me man, I figured it had to be that one. Like I told him, I don't know anybody else who makes customs reservoirs so that gave me the idea to think it was that one.
 
hmmmm cold storm did u see this res?

agb1.jpg
 
That's a pretty neat res. But, I love my res that I'm getting!!!
 
hurry up about it then :p :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:
 
yeah I think the res CS is getting looks nicer. Although that is nice man, where'd you find that?
