Custom pump? That simply is custom watercooling guru's style.

I just love the DNA grill!

Thanks! I actually did it before with the exact same pump. I have a very bad history of modding pumps. I killed 1 for my Nintendo Wii, and I killed another on my carpc. But that's what happens when you go a bit too crazy! :asd:

I made this for my carpc:

Only the base and the magnet is stock.

Since today is my birthday, I had nothing better to do than stay a couple of hours extra at work to get a couple of little things done, and also to mill the 240mm radgrill.

I was actually going to finish up the 120mm while the other was in the cnc, but forgot the fact that I use the small plane in the cnc while I need it to do the other! :lol:

So none of them are finished yet, but they will be tuesday the latest!

On with the show!

Milled the 240mm DNA radgrill:

The left-overs. Had you asked me to mill these, I'd have said "no way" :lol:

Finally I decided how/where the rads would be mounted in the case. Blue 240 on one side, the red 120 on the other:

That's it for now.

Can't wait to get further on this, as it finally feels and looks like something useful!

It's been a long time since last update, but here it is.

I had to remake my plans and put the 240mm rad vertical instead of horizontal. This leaves no room for the reservoirs, but I'll figure it out as I go along! (as usual!)

Cut the hole for the 240 radgrill after removing some soundproofing:

Testfit:

Unfortunately someone scratched the sidepanel :wallbash: but I'll just have to paint it along with the back. But then again I probably need to paint the whole thing to get a uniform shade of white!

I also did a quick test of the smd's on the 120 grill. Only one side mounted with the led's and keep in mind that the outer 8mm's all the way around will not be visible as they are for mounting in the case.

This is only on one side, there will be lights on all 4 sides!

I'm quite happy with the way the light disperse in the acrylic. Nothing like the normal straight led light!

Well, that's it for now. C ya soon!

Thanks guys! I must admit I'm pretty happy about it too!

Which is also why I decided to take the protective film off!

Just wanted to show you how the 240 radgrill looked without protective coating. It was pretty stupid of me to put the thing in, as I still need to cut out another window, but I just had to see!

Not too bad if you ask me!

Right now I'm drawing up a sketch of the electronics for the dvd-drive. Ph.d. student at work owes me a favor for machining some parts for a homemade quad-copter, and I'm cashing in!

Next up is to make a plate to cover the PSU, and cut an extra hole in the side. Also a hole in the other side and one in the top part of the case. So much to do, so much time wasted on BF3 with my new gfx card! :lol:

the result is very nice

Thank you very much!

I was not really happy with the smd led's, but I found out I only had 7.6v on them, so I tried with a 12v charger. That made a world of difference!

I also made a design of the PSU cover, as I hope it's going to look!

thanks!

for me is a great result with these led, the result is beatiful thank to great cut of plexy

The PSU top with the periodic table is simply brilliant!

I'm really happy about the DNA grills. Some of the best I've ever done in my oppinion!

Thanks! I really hope it's going to be as great as the renders show!

I guess it's about time for another update.

I didn't get much done as most I need is going to be milled on the cnc, and we have had different setups sitting in it the last couple of weeks. Hope to get some done during the week/next weekend.

But I do have a small update though. I made the PSU cover:

Still needs a bit of tweaking, but all in all I think it's going to be good!

C ya soon guys! :thumb:

very good impression this covered

Waiting for the PSU top!
