Project Mercury - An internal watercooled Skyreach 4 Mini

[rosinbole]

I can release the MOBO model, but the thing is, it's basically boxes and plates..

I basically took all the measurements and visualize them.

Well, that doesn't matter! I'm just going to use it to design a mobo cover! Thanks alot! You have made my day in more than one way today! If you want to release it, could you upload it to the cloud and give us a link? Maybe google cloud? Maybe grabcad? Again, thanks alot!

Update March 13, 2018

A care package arrive again, this time with my new set of custom brackets:

The quality is pretty good, but sadly there are several design oversights: Since the thinnest part of the panel is only 1.5mm, using #6-32 screws aren't ideal and several screw holes slipped when I tried to tighten the screw up. Also the top piece is only secured by two screws, which I don't think will be able to handle a radiator's weight.
Next version I will use M3 screws instead of #6-32 and add a support plate between the two pieces.

Also, I got those weird aluminum AIO radiators:

I'm not planning on using them, but they do fit comfortably in the S4M!

Do you think it's possible to get those in copper?

I wish I can

Have you tried asking alphacool directly if they can make one?

Scratch that, you might be able to jank fab one yourself if they use large, extending pipes.

Take 2 of them, cut the piping at the end, solder the two together, mod the shroud to fit around your jankenstien and then connect one end so that it acts as an internally contained loop.

They can, at a ridiculous price

I really want to use as much aftermarket product as possible. This not only make my life easier but also for those who wanna try to do the same as well

That's the block I have on hand now, the EK monoblock. Not impressed by the quality

Haha its actually a custom power button! I honestly don't like vandal switches personally. I will reveal more information later when everything is finalized
