Hi folks,

Not really a full blown mod or anything. I just got myself a TJ07 from ModernoPC, and I have been thinking to spray the internal to flat black. After that, I will need to put all the hardware in including the water cooling parts Kindly be informed that this work is done in ModernoPC's shop. Moderno was kind enough to let me borrow the tools and space I need to complete the assembly (yes, Moderno, I will return the favor shortly ).

Okay, here is my hardware list:


CPU
Intel C2D E7400

Motherboard
Gigabyte EP45-UD3R

Graphics card
Gainward 4850 512MB Golden Sample

RAM
G-Skill DDR2-1066 2x2GB

Power Supply
Silverstone ST50F

Storage
WD 640GB Green

Sound card
Onboard! (my sound card crapped on me)

Casing
Silverstone TJ07

Water Cooling
Swiftech Apogee XT CPU water block
Swiftech MCW60-R V2 GPU water block
Swiftech MCP-655
Swiftech MCR-320
EK 250 reservoir
Bitspower Compression fittings 1/2" 3/4"
Tygon R3603 1/2" 3/4" tubings

I know my hardware is... outdated , but I am spending my PC budget for this year on this WC project.

I will take some pictures and post my sketch of the WC planning Right now, its more like a teaser

Meanwhile, any recommendations and/or feedback are welcomed Credits will be mentioned on this first post.

ModernoPC - for the continued support and patience
Clawhammer - for getting me the water cooling parts

be carefull with while modding the TJ07.. RM1000 of alu =(

wah, WC spec so high end

but using E7400 >.<? MCR 220 should be enough if ur cooling the cpu only, save space.. could always add another 120 rad for the GC if single setup..

You are right, MCR220 is enough, but its okay to still use a triple

Core i9 next year maybe?

I missed something. I did order a GPU block I will edit the first post.

woah....gudluck2...wonder why theres so little ninja mod...always CM or silverstone in here...

I'm looking for guide spray at interior because i want to do same at my casing.

Bro, can we do together?

hahahaha...ikan semilang...i tought u started the interior panting guide?juz follow it lol...

I need gang. LOL!

ahahaha..what for lol?

Can, but you will have to get down to ModernoPC. Sanding will take one whole day (depending on how big is your case)

Spraying a TJ07 is easier considering that you can take everything apart

What case do you have?

woah....ur from modernopc is it?y u ask him to take to moderno?

this should be a good step to wc. hahahaha.. we have the same wc parts only i'm lacking of XT cpu wb... if i order 1 month after that surely i can play with XT already

hahahahahhahaha

nvm.. GTZ also fine.. waiting for u to complete the projects.. TJ07 is awesome wc casing BTW. Grab some Murdermod sleeve and do your own million dollar pc setup... good luck bro

why didnt buy full GTX 285 block xD.. the mcw-60 looks ugly unless u buy the cover (black thingy than covers the PCB) and v-ramsinks >.<

CM690...thinking to pianting inside black and panel with yellow.

Thanks, but I might not do the sleeving. I sleeved my PSU before, way back in 2003. It was a painful experience for me. 1 year later, the PSU blew and I had to throw away my hard work. So, no, no more sleeving for me

Full block GTX285? I am using AMD 4850 mate

Reason why I decided to go with MCW-60 is for future proofing. If I get an FC block, I will have to get another one when I upgrade my GPU. I dont have that much money every year wanna buy GPU water block

Not sure if thats gonna be easy since the case cant be taken apart.

No lah, I dont work there. Just that its easier to do modding work there. And its nice to be surrounded by expensive PC hardware, haha

Yea, I will get the pics. No worries

anyway u can get the full MCW-60 mosfet / ram cover for your GC.. You can find 'em on swiftech official website. The color is black.

Finally I got the chance to upload some pictures


Here is the ripped apart TJ07. Mine is the one on the left. I have no idea who's the owner of the other TJ07.


The gut of the TJ07 all dumped into this box


Here is the sketch. Sorry its a little small. It was all that I can afford because of my busy schedule

Some of the parts that will go in my rig


Gigabyte Coolant


Vantec jiggy-with-it-thingy front panel



This is the fan that will go to my triple rad.

Here is one part of the TJ07 that has been sanded. This was sanded using a 1000 grit sandpaper. 800 grit would give a rougher surface (better?).

That's all for now. I will be busy this weekend. There might be more updates next week as I will have the time to spray the internals. I will go more into details on the spraying steps.

not that fan lol.. CM r4 fans perform bad on rads ._.
