Disclaimer: This build is not completed by me and is originally posted on chiphell.com. I have permission from the original poster to repost it here 
I will try my best to translate everything from the original post, but there may be some changes in the layout and wording. This is the post that convinced me that an internally water-cooled S4M might be possible.
Let's start!
Specs:
Sketching out the structure in sketchup
There are three location for storage devices: a m.2 pcie 2280 drive + two 2.5inch drive. I'm only utilizing one 2.5 slot currently:
Modeling the chassis in SolidWorks
Some details:
Assembling the build:
Its way harder than I thought it will be. Took me about a month to complete.
Modifiying the IO pannel from Jonsbo:
PCIE to m.2 slot:
(I'm using the motherboard's PCIE slot for the m.2 drive, and the Ultra m.2 slot + an adapter for the graphics card )
The factory heatsink for the MOS chips are way too tall, swapping them out for some shorter ones:
Insulating all the PCBs with Polyimide sheets:
All the parts for the chassis:
The empty chassis without any hardware in it:
All the cutouts are pretty accurate:
Insulating the DDC pump's PCB with some rubber cement:
Bending the tubes...
CPU and the CPU block:
Have to trim down the io cable header to make space:
Kinda messy now
Shorttening the usb 3.0 cable:
Top:
Testing the loop without hardware:
Temps:
Stress test for 35min: CPU package at 58 degree, water temp at 36.4 degree. Ambient temperature 14 degree. Noise level at 52 decibel.
It seems like a 40mm radiator can handle this without any problem at all!
Idle power consumption:
Full load power consumption:
Finally, some images
