Well, I decided to redo a lot of things from my last project. Previous worklog
Here are the list of changes:
Currently in progress:
I'll explain more on where everything is going once I finish painting and re-cleaning my parts.
Here are the list of changes:
- RMA'd Laing DDC-2 pump. Got me a nice DDC-3.2 18W in return. Thanks Danger Den!
- Replaced stock top with a XSPC acrylic top. Got some 1/2" EK High-Flow fittings for it. Also bought a Designs Absolute Pump Bracket for the pump as well.
- Replaced Swiftech Micro-RES for a Danger Den dual 5.25" bay reservoir (clear). Came with 1/2" High-Flow fittings.
- Got rid of my crappy vinyl tubing and instead got some Tygon R-3603 1/2" ID, 3/4" OD tubing. World's difference.
- Bought some black sleeving and sleeved many cables such as molex extensions, fans, some power cables.
- Ripped out lower HDD bay and instead bought a Lian-Li Ex-23B HDD cage.
- Replaced stock 120mm side exhaust fan with a 120mm TT blue LED fan. A little quieter but the blue glow is just amazing.
- Replaced my Samsung 18x DVD burner (IDE) with a Samsung 20x DVD burner (SATA). I was getting sick and tired of that obnoxious IDE cable.
- Bought additional cables and a 4" white cathode kit.
- Oh, and last but not least.. bought a WD 640GB hard drive. Figured the price was reasonable and I wanted a little more storage. Currently selling the WD 250GB and Seagate 320GB in my For Sale thread.
Currently in progress:
- Cleaned and washed Rocketfish frame. Currently spray painting a clear coating to protect it from further scratches.
- Still have a few more cables to sleeve.
- Leak testing components (see pictures below).
- Painting Ex-23B cage black. The front may have a black bezel but the frame is silver. Doesn't look good in a black case.
