I think we have quite a lot of sys builders here, so post your computer here!

I'll start

Thats the UV lighting I just got today

**PyrrhusIV** · February 21, 2006, 09:40 PM

I'll post mine later

. My Dell 4300 isnt much to look at, but my Custom is. On your case, Great Job! It looks very "clean" on the inside, and who cant admire the window on the side!

**Zuwxiv** · February 22, 2006, 01:08 AM

Dell 4600. I guess, when looking at Alienware, good customs, etc. my computer gets what could only be compared to penis envy.

**OTZ** · February 22, 2006, 04:49 AM

Here's mine...looks like we may have the same PSU Incinerate - is yours the 520W as well?

The cables are a little messy at the moment...I'm in the middle of changing some things...

**Spiff** · February 22, 2006, 11:40 AM

Water cooling eh..

Anyway, here's my server sized computer:

and the inside:

**krazykarl** · February 22, 2006, 12:57 PM

I built this myself out of a stock full tower

All custom

Its getting a bit worn, I need to touch up the paint job at some point

**Incinerate_IV** · February 22, 2006, 02:57 PM

OTZ... Those tubes are HUGE

!!! What size are them?
BTW my OCZ modstream is only 450 watt, but thats good enough for me

Its still a beast.

Spiff, Nice case

That that fan is indeed very very 1337

And krazykarl, thats the biggest case I have ever saw, wow, it looks more like 2 full sized cases stacked into one. :sweatingb

**OTZ** · February 22, 2006, 04:05 PM

That is the type of case I have been hunting for...shame I can't find any around. It would be perfect for my set-up!

@Incinerate: The tubing is 1/2" ID (inner diamater). I couldn't find any waterblocks that would fit my parts that had a smaller diameter requirement...they'd look better if I can find a way to hide the Modstream cables - they are grossly un-bendable...

**Shuriken** · February 22, 2006, 04:36 PM

Soem guy made a custom computer out of a whickey bottle. It's a fully funtional gaming PC.

You can make a case out of anything and it will work

I agree with that, I think they put watercooling tubes out side of it to make it UV active, I wish they can do what Ultra did with their cable thogh. Oh well, thats the only thing I don't like about Modstream. But then again they don't look bad at all so I really don't mind if its a little exposed. I don't have that many components in my computer though.

Heres my specs BTW:
Intel Pentium 4 Prescott 3 ghz @ 4 ghz (24/7)
Thermaltake XP-90 with Vantec Tornado on a fan controller
Asus P5GD2 Premium 915 chipset mobo
2 x 512mb Corsair XMS2 5400C4 @ DDR2-700

ATI Radeon X1600 Pro 256MB @ 625 core / 800 memory DDR
Western Digital 7200 RPM 160 gig hard drive
Cheapest DVD burner/Reader I can find
Old CD Rom drive from Dell
OCZ Modstream 450 watt

**OTZ** · February 22, 2006, 05:18 PM

Well I can tell you the Modstream tubing sure ain't the same material my watercooling tubes are. The WC stuff is extremely flexible.

Ah well...I shouldn't complain - the Modstream does make for a clean looking set-up.

**booker** · February 22, 2006, 05:27 PM

Mine old pc... i need to upgrade it soon

**Incinerate_IV** · February 22, 2006, 05:55 PM

Nice see through powersupply

Can I get some specs?

**OTZ** · February 22, 2006, 06:05 PM

I have the exact same PSU still sitting in its box...never got a chance to use it...500W no name - but I think they powered a lot of the older alienware PCs. The bonus was the fact that the 20pin cable came pre-sleeved.

**Shuriken** · February 23, 2006, 03:02 PM

Isn't that kinda risky having a water cooled unit?

**OTZ** · February 23, 2006, 04:55 PM

Not really. The chances of something happening are probably no worse than if I were to air cool everything. As long as everything is sealed properly you shouldn't have anything to worry about. I've had no problems in the past 3 years.

**Shuriken** · February 23, 2006, 05:19 PM

so which is better in your opinion then air or water?

**OTZ** · February 23, 2006, 06:05 PM

Water - for a couple of reasons. The silence is golden! And the cooling effect of a water based system is much more efficient than anything air can do...

**PyrrhusIV** · February 23, 2006, 06:59 PM

Water is great, but just a little more than air. I personally prefer Air, and dont go on to water until my PC is a year or two old.

**Incinerate_IV** · February 23, 2006, 08:04 PM

When Corsair's $200 phase changing unit come out, if it ever does, I might just get it. If not, then I'm going to switch to water cooling my self, its just much more efficent than air cooling.

And PyrrhusIV, wheres your comp?! The more the better
