A project stretched out to 1yr. Due to modifications, waiting new parts & latest technology.

Watercooled : CPU - Mosfet - North/South bridge - VGA. Twin cooling = Double pump, seperate loop.

GPU - EK full face waterblock rev. for XXX edition
CPU - Alphacool
Chipset & Mosfet - Bits Power.
Pump - MCP 355 + EK top
Reservoir - EK tube res 250mm size
Feser Tubing - sadly, i must say FESER tubing feels like my toilet hose. Even my garden hose is way better.
Liquid - Distilled water + non corrosive industrial addictive
Fittings - all Bitspower
Radiator - 1x 360mm Black ICE SR + 1x EK 360mm rad ( 2nd SR rad was damaged so i replaced with EK )
Fans - 120mm x 25mm NMB fan @ 0.22amp, 1600rpm. Being the least vibration, least noise & lease centre dead spot. "small core".
Alphacool Headmaster - pump & fan control with temperature sensor. <----- have not play with it yet till system is up.

Intel 980x -
Corsair Dominator 2000mhz CL 8, 6x 2gb = 12gb
WD Velociraptor SATA-3 600gb x 6units = RAID 0
EVGA Classified x58
Corsair 1000watt or 1200watt whichever arrive ( currently market no stock as of this post )
LIAN LI V2110 full tower case
Pioneer DVDRW

Monitor - 100" SUPER LED <---------------- just for a LAUGH


Stripping out entire case for anodizing & powder coating work. I take a lot of pictures b4 stripping so I can refer back when putting them together again.
There're actually quite a lot of rivets to remove. Removal has to be in sequence when putting them back together again. Miss it & I had to remove the rivets again.
The difficult part is none actually. Other than looking for the correct rivet size. The original rivets at the rear were not counter sunk type. We simply counter sunk it & put in counter sunk rivets to flush flat. I'm not sure if that is case modding or not ..















4mm black sleeve

nice job..can't waiting...

anodized red on aluminium parts. part with steel powder coated black. still nicer than all red or all black, too plain when all become 1 color.

slide in some paper into screw thread before powerder coating this section


putting the pieces together again. it took longer than stripping them apart










rotary cutting tool to mark out the lines first


followed by jigsaw for straight lines. quicker


final job before touching up the edges. just to note, make bigger screw holes so can align it better. never easy to manually drill 12x perfect screw holes.


cutting 12pcs of screws for 3x 120mm fan to secure the case fan to the case then to the radiator.

havent see u around for a while

now post moar pictar

thanks man,

i can post now again.

mounted up the 3x 120mm fan & radiator.


a method i've always use to extend the rear radiator out, also as a shroud. reluctantly, no more 38mm faulty fan, i destroyed a perfect working 120mm x 38mm San ACE FAN !!

this is insane man

MCP 355 pump with EK top. The TOP is really good because
1) less heat
2) better flow rate
3) less noise ! than stock


beautiful EK gpu block


Alphacool Headmaster. weird name though. it comes with a software, usb interface & able to monitor fan & pump rotational speed. also with thermal probe. will try it out when system is up !


Auzentech Home Theater HD base on XFI chipset.


rip apart the dvd drive to spray black. haven't done it since like p3 time


pump original wires removed & modded to 3pin header with black sleeve & connector.




here i use a piece of cut out aluminium from ( modded other lianli side panel ) to create a "back plate holder" for the tube reseroir i'm going to use. and also to conceal the cables behind neatly.




u can see i remove off partial section for the DVDRW, while leaving about 8mm gap at the bottom for the wires to go through.
Modders seeing this, can use this method to conceal the wires behind & no longer need to cut holes on mobo trays

WOW...uglyvamp is back to mood...haha snap more more picture ya...
btw u got plan to continue ur business here???

@ kelvin, initially yea, very keen. but rental i think is higher than like 3yrs ago ... planned to do it in outskirt KL instead but i'm not familiar.

Also need a trustworty person to run the show too while i'm away. Perhaps 1 day when buz here in SG is stable & someone to look after full time, i'll go over !! meantime, just selling it via online / PM ..

thanks for the question.

on with the show !! btw, guys, the rig is not 100% complete yet, gonna sleeve up RED for the PSU & other visible wires infront. hidden ones will go all black. Earlier today, i just got the liquid in & running well, tmr noon will be good to take some videos & pictures when the sun is bright.


**** I've added 3 pictures above this post while adding more pictures to this post *****

fairly easy to do the marking behind.


the 2 holder for the 2 tube reservoir


my original creation, aluminium back plate + acrylic "spacer" made from loose unwanted acrylic pieces. I double tape them up.


this is my favourite mod job for this project. i scan through my work area for the idea. now it is spaced out by about 9mm. purrfect !


this is how my back plate works !

Really really nice . Wish ur shop is in KL If only i had the skills

ur setup realy awesome..... O_O

Wow, this is a great mod! Can I send my casing to you as well?

Yum. Semi-black knight.

Are anodizing costs still as expensive when I enquired about it almost 1.5-2 years ago, or has the price dropped since then?

chop this space for updates later ...

need some feedbacks for any improvement please. before closing idea & finalize it.

oh, still got dancing flexilight to add in too. multi color, remote controlled color change.

btw all, it is not my rig ... building it for a good customer turn frend whom followed through 1 year for the project to settle.

meanwhile, break spoiler for previous work ... b4 uploading more pics. internet a bit slow to upload bulk pictures.

waiting for you to upload more classified project
