nicely done
thumbs up
keep up the good work ^^v

happen to dig out this 1yr ++ ago work.










along with some 6mths ago Silverstone FT-01 case.

Nicely blacken.





carefully sprayed it black.

waaahhhh nice job u did on your tj07..

nice and neat

inspiring indeed~

awesome....silverstone case ? lol where to get silverstone case in lowyat actually ? coz most are selling boring coolermaster and other cacat brand....even got also silverstone HTPC....><

i presume it's LED strips

RED psu sleeving.

nice freshy colour !! and wow....cables are so long

all the differnt types of pins & connectors.. d.i.y repair. uh huh ! and they're all in B.L.A.C.K

Added on April 22, 2011, 7:53 pmhalf through building this FANLESS HTPC case. processor & gpu will be cooled via custom heatpipe to the case's massive heatsink on both side. can't wait to complete this thing after i figured out the reposition layout for the psu & hdds.

the case is HFX media pc fanless case. $1k++

wow wow weee... that red uni-sleeved psu is evil.

just sent you a PM sir. gotta order some lianli accessories from you

ts, ur work really2 nice lar..
hope that u can mod my pc also..

welcome back uglyvamp~!

Hey all, something interesting for u all to follow up for the next 1-2weeks till completion. I welcome all ideas to make this project cost effective & simplest possible.


The condition & objective to build this system are :

- Small & portable ( size of a m-atx casing or smaller if possible )
- A/C Powered.
- use of 3x 120watt peltier
- cooling area, size of a rear mini van.
- cooling environment estimate to be 35c-40c-45c-50c depending on weather


Video show a start up test.

On the hot side, temp is ok with the heat pipe heatsink rated to hold 160watt. I will be using this heatsink & a 92mm fan to draw heat out.

With the thermal probe i have in store, one to the heatpipe ( blue ) one to the cold heatsink ( orange )

Estimate temp i recorded for both hot / cold side.

COLD - 6c / HOT - 36c <-- Fan at max speed
COLD - 10c / HOT - 43c <-- Fan speed controlled, about 70%
COLD - 10c / HOT - 58c <-- Fan speed controlled, lowest speed, 20-30%
COLD - 15c / HOT - 70c <---- Fan off, at this point, the heatsink with no fan running gets really hot to the finger & the WIRES from psu start to get really HOT too !

saw tis b4, but still dun understand how it work.
quick cheap.

further testing, with improved heatsink, yielding a cool average of -2c at the cold area. the entire fin cooling area after the heatpipe is not so cold, fluctuating between 5c-10cm due to open area.

here's my final modifications. i use a 2mm aluminium sheet as divider.

Top - HOT
Bottom - COLD

Fan controller will be implemented to regulate the temperature at the hot side, also in away of controlling the cold side. more heat out = more cold at the bottom.

Cold will blow out cold air through the front of the casing ( with a front exhaust hole for cold air ). and another hold at the rear ( PCI area for heat to get out , coupled with a large air duct to route the hot air away nicely.

still working on it, will be powering up all 3 peltiers today to see the result.

more improvements will be adding insulating foam to trap cold inside & at the lower section. it'll be like a sealed up lower section from outside. This casing is an aluminium casing, it draw heat/cold very quickly.

That is a lot of heatsink.
