Oh the Frustration...I thought I would be able to use a Koolance connector with my Acrylic Reservoir so I tried and it didn't fit so I fitted the brass connectors I was originally using and the thing cracked!!!! I was so pi$$ed off!!!

Looking good my man! Reading these logs makes me wanna go and mod again, this case is gonna like sick once its finished!

Keep it up

It's taking it's time...but is fun...get back into it...

I definatly will. Modding cant be rushed, but Im taking a little too long to get things done. Will start updating again soon!

Thanks viceroy

8O oh crap...what you gona do now?

I bought two luckily...Not gonna mess with the other one...and for project where I was gonna use this one, I think I may just do without a reservoir...

Seems like this is quite a common thing. Same thing happened to the res that Wikid had...

Pretty.



Also picked up a nice little single 120mm Radiator from DJV last night which fits perfectly at the front of my P180, and that in conjunction with another single 120mm radiator I have at the rear of the case will ensure that everything is going to be kept nice and cool

Alrighty,

This mod is back on the books after what could only be called a 'break'

The theme has changed from 'Black Beauty' to 'Reaper' mainly because of my new ram and the whole black theme seems to fit (black P180, black Asues P5K-E, Black memory, black Radiators)

I've also newly aquired a nice little Dremel 300 and I plan to put that to good use.

Oh yeah...check out my new Avatar....kinda gonna be the theme character for the mod....

Gonna be going really slow, but it will get there

Viceroy - it's amazing the impact a set of Reapers have on you....

They've just arrived on my desk now...gotta say they look stunning!

Also just picked up the rest of my Watercooling thanks to I34z1k!!! Thanks dude...I know the cooling stuff meant alot to you...but you do need a car more than you need WC

So

I now have
- Swiftech Apogee CPU block
- Swiftech Microres Reservoir
- Swiftech MPC655 12V Pump

Which is to be added to what I already have
- Swiftech Microres Reservoir
- Swiftech MCW60 GPU block
- Danger Den CPX1 12V Pump.

Next things to decide are just how one mounts a Triple 120mm Coolwave radiator inside a P180 without interfereing too much with the mobo or any other components...or Do I have two different loops, one for the GPU and one for the CPU, each one using a single 120mm Rad...

Oh decisions, decisions

Easy viceroy, you got all that space at the top of the P180, time to get that dremel working and get cutting. I suggest a AC Ryan grill to finish it off

Skidd...have you seen how thick my rad is...just a test fitting and its already obstructing the 8-pin power socket

Oi man, the p180 is not a small case, you should have some space there.

Take some pics and lets see, maybe we can make a plan.

It's not small, but it's not known to be roomy either.

It will fit, but is very close to the mobo...I'll maybe just off-center the rad slightly...I'll see
