Elite 340 is not tools free right? Have to use screws.

yup, that's the best of it

no more tool-less which is rather use-less (for me) anyway

u don't see those Silverstone TJ-07 case with a price tag RM1k comes with tool-less kit rite? it's just use-less

a lil update on my CM690. With dual rad mounted on top.

Unfortunately, im very very short of tools and ill just make do with some china made RM5 soldering tool and melt down the plastic top panel. Got a dremel tool from moderno.. but malfunctioned = =

The cutting on the metal top part of my cm690 isnt well done due to not having proper tools... though it cant be seen when the top panel is covered so it isnt really an issue for now.


The whole top is fully solder/cut


Fits perfectly!!! what a relief after some rough measurement is done.


GPU waterblock is fitted and little heatsinks(mixed of zalmans/CM). Ready go to !!


Completed Internals
Yup... you didnt see wrong, the GPU short tubes are the gas tubes. DIdnt have enough clearflex for it, though i think the extra hard gas tubes actually serves its purpose well there.


Uv-fied/Bling-fied


Everything up and running ~


Overall Workstation view.

Expect some updates soon to fully touch up all the bad parts after my new hardwares arrives

http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...&#entry14577683

nice casing u have there
but why u change the airflow?
where is the out 1?
haha

2 fans on top.. i put a very high flow fans (38mm thickness fan) + average fan (vizo uv led fan) so i guess it's enuff for the heat to go outside of the case..

so far the temps looks okey

Just to let u Coolermaster fanboys know about the great deal I got at the PC Fair. U fellas better hurry n go grab it today if u still can find it.

AVF stall was selling these lovely DVD drive bezels for only rm15!!!!!!!
Usual price is rm50. I sapu 2 units eventhough I dont need them.

i just the cover rite?
nothing to do with cooling or wut so ever rite?
i think its not very usefull

Y on earth wud u wanna cool ur DVD drive????????? Unless u burning pron the whole day n the drive is getting "HOT".

These bezels are for making the case front look nice with an aluminum look on the front rather than the ugly plastic that the DVD drive companies provide.
