OK, I made some tests for Radeon with semi-passive cooling.

Clocks: 342/685Mhz (stock: 275/550Mhz)
100% stable, 0% artefacts :)

3Dmark2001SE (std. settings): 12223
3Dmark2003 (std. settings): 5558.

...I hope that is no all, Ill try to improve airflow in case.

After 8 months came time of first great case cleaning!

Filter from the micromesh acquitted oneself very well.
There was small quantity of small dust. Quick cleaning by air spray and hoover and case looks almost perfect :)

Image

During that 8 months im improoved cable management, one of the bundles of cables was altered under mine the configurations completely, so there is no unnecessary wires.

Image

Front orginal fan was relaced by Scythe Sflex 800rpm (similar performance but much more quieter than orginal Lian Li fan).

Image

I have paln to convert my rig into full water cooled setup. For now im collect parts and I concentrate on the maximum quieting the cooling of the casing

Honestly, this is one of the most elegant builds I`ve ever seen.
The only thing missing is a big fan psu taking advantage of the side vent.

Perfect execution, congrats!

About PSU fans...today I made some upgrades.

Both enermax fans were replaced by new/quiet Xthermal 80mm and Coollink 92mm. Both have been mounted on silicon slicks.

More Akasa Paxmate have been added :)

Try to use different materials for dumping your Lian Li, I think this give the best results.

For ex.:
Thick accoustic foam on huge & flat surfaces. Thiner dump material like Aksa Paxmate on small surfaces. Heavy bituminous mates are good for flat surfaces too.

Where did you get that LCD monitor that you installed in the case?

Where can I find one of those?

I bought it on Allegro (something like ebay... but much better).

Cost around 20$. I made only interface LPT cable myself.

Depth

Post by DonQ » Wed May 14, 2008 8:48 pm

Very nice!

I loved my Silverstone TJ08 case but I had to go ATX. The computer sits really close to my face so depth was an important factor in determining my replacement case. I really wanted a Lian Li but over at Newegg they all spec'ed out at 19.3" deep. Is that what yours is?

ishi, you've got a great rig there. I love the Lian-Li case, particularly the small LCD on top. Very, very cool. I'd ask where you got it, but I'm assuming it's somewhere in/near Poland. It'd look great on the front of my Antec Solo IMO.

I'm glad to see someone actually truly modding their case, instead of buying a ton of bolt-ons. Your bending of the HR-05 SLI looks awesome.

Also, I was wondering why i couldn't find Akasa PaxMate in stock anywhere, and now I know... You were buying it all! :)

Great rig, and I hope to see more pics and more info on it. Keep up the great work ishi.

Thx for comment.

There are some profesional stores for modders in Warsaw [I live there :)]

So I can buy mates or electronic parts for custom LCD panel without any problem :)

Im collect parts for WC for this small case. What I can promise? It will be awsome ^_^

Regards
