jan900 Posted September 11, 2014 Author Share Posted September 11, 2014 Sleeving update Went with the heatshrinkless method GPU sleeve Motherboard 8 pin Made a cover out of acrylic and wrapped it with carbon fiber Proceed to tubing.. Once the tubing was done.. Leak tested it.. Desktop fully running Back side (a mess :o:) Made a bracket for the HDD on the back With the side panel on Last shot Still have a lot to do .. like cleaning up the wires and painting up the top part of the case.. sadly I ran out of time .. I rushed the build to run so i can participate on the launch of a new game called "Arche Age" :o: That's all for today! Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOODedAssault Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Looks cool but r u trying to keep your rad hot. Why do you have intake fans at front of case and exhaust fans on inside. Basically going to hold all the heat in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically going to hold all the heat in. I did not thought of that.. :o: Thank you for pointing that out.. I'll just change the fans position.. I thought push and pull configuration was best for a radiator? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
