its ok larr..

but i always leave one molex outside accessible incase want to test something like fan etc...

real case is on blue light... not led.. h

that one really geng.. the whole case like lit up..

need to do a bit of rewiring since it was done for sli and now running single card.. so got two pcie not being used..

leceh to take pics.. but will be doing it soon to complete the HR03 plus article.

did this photo just because a friend of mine didnt beleive that this case is really that good...
took only 2 hours to set it up which half an hour was spend measuring the wire lengths.
my only cons.. theres not enough inflow front front fan... hence used the cooler master crossflow fan to have more airflow around the mobo

Nice work on the rig cstkl1. Overall the Mercury offers easy installation of a WC system within a casing. Good for anyone wanting to try it out.

I agree with you that the case does give some prob on the front intake. All Gigabyte cases has the same issues i suppose since my poseidon, my bro's 3D Aurora both has similar prob with front intake. I had to fit another fan after the HDD cage to get better airflow.

yeah dude.. this case is cheap.. ive been telling ppl that

i know the price is Rm1300 but ask ure self
ure buying a water cooling setup thats beats the best air cooling by a bit
and u get a full atx
the cable mangement is easy
and to upgrade ure watercooling setup in the future is possible with 3rads at the top..

heck the amount of space left above the PSu i thin u can run a nother WC for the GPU..kekeke

and best of the cable management for this damn kacang and taking out and putting back the mobo also easy..

TOTALL RECOMMENDED...

Yes it has built-in WC kit already. Just plug and play style.

I do agree with cstkl1 that for that price tag it is quite a decent pricing, considering if u pair Gigabyte's own WC system that costs near RM 600 with another of its casing with similar pricetag, u can actually get this rig to try out the simplicity and purpose of WC.

nothing can beat the TJ07..

just that do u need that much space.

also without any kinda of mod the TJ07 is actually quite ugly..

both cases are definitely worth of RM1000 ++, but personally I'd rather like a Silverstone TJ-07 than this gigabyte case, it's not because I am owning Tj-07, But from point of my view, Tj-07 has a better quality of the interior aspect..

this gigabyte case is still nice though...

TJ-07 is a bit boring without modification, how i wish the TJ-07 have the mid section fans too.......... but the slidable mobo tray is something the gigabyte cannot offer

that's why once U buy a tj-07 U gotta send it to ianho to get modified...heu2he2uhe, yeah it's true tj-07 is a bit boring without any mod, but different case IF it's a silver one, for me, silver color illustrates more modishness...

Yeah, weird thing was a sudden influx of SS in a Gigabyte thread. laugh.gif

Anyway, the mercury is for anyone who's into WC their system. Simple easy to use actually. Not for adventurous modders.

TJ 10 i dun like the open half way door, if the door open all the way down very nice..............

but serious i was hoping TJ 10 to have dual 120mm rear exhaust for mounting Rads........ but haha too much for SS i think

edited: sorry for the sway from topic already........... btw back to topic actaully how powerful is the pump on the mercury? there is a few more tap for additonal loops rite, just wander how much it can support
