    Thanks for the nice words! Funnily enough many redditors suggested adding color to the coolant or rgb lighting... Some people...

    Well, as you'd expect from an i5 and a gtx 970. pretty much everything maxed out 1080p 60fps. temps are a bit high for a watercooled system, with the cpu and gpu at maximums of ~60 C, but still ok.

    It's done! This is the final update. The PC is assembled and has been running great for the past two weeks. As always i compiled a small Imgur album that should cover everything. Thank you to everyone who made suggestions, helped, asked questions etc, you influenced the case design to what it...

    Thanks! In fact, that is what i did, but it seems it's not quite right yet.. But anyways, it needs to be redone because of the pump sitting too high. I don't know how i'm going to do it but i'll figure something out.

    [SFF Network] John's Weekly Mini-Rant - SFX, The New Standard

    Disclaimer: my pc is located in a basement room, as far away from the street as my house will allow. i'd say it's pretty quiet in there. my main problem with sfx is the noise. i have used an air cooled system for a while, with an atx power supply, and it was pretty quiet. but after switching to...

    Hi everyone, it's been a while but not much has been happening. But today in fact, pretty much happened! Now i'm waiting for all the watercooling hardware to arrive and then i can start building!

    Hi there, just a small update to what is going on at the moment. I have made another cardboard prototype and i ordered all the parts to test if everything fits. Right now i just have the radiator and psu installed though, i'm still waiting for everything else. God damn those slovenian national...

    I'll see how the reception is where they are. If that doesn't work i'll probably go wired with powerline adapters. I don't like the look of an external antenna and hiding it would probably be pretty hard...

    Hey there, it's me again. It's been a while since the last update, so let's get right into it! Remember when I said there would be no more renders? I lied. I lied to all of you. I made some changes to the layout in the past month, and basically had to redo half the case. See for yourself: no...

    Well, hello there again. A small Update for you, not much has been happening the last few days as i was busy, but here you go. I changed a few things about the model: Changed the 35mm Lian Li case feet for 45mm ones, because i recieved them a few days ago and was surprised how small they look...
