Haha. Can't. Not in my current case anyway. Too tight space, I'll end up blowing up my rig or shorting something.

Got damn a lot of types la out there, I also dont know the difference between all. Some uses for house, decoration, cars etc. Some are waterproof, some are not, some leds are brighter, some are bigger etc. I think doesn't matter much, we are using in the casing so can go with any led strip la as long as it lights up with decent brightness tongue.gif

Hook it up to a fan controller then can adjust the brightness based on what you prefer, to be honest my leds are turned off almost 90% of the time. Most of the time only luminous panel is on, because that looks much better imo.
*
Yeah, I'm aware of the types. Just that every time I find one, I end up discovering something that would work better. doh.gif

Don't wanna hook it up to my controller. Not cheap and hard to get locally. And gonna leave it on anyway. haha.

Edit: Just plunged and bought myself 5m 1210-600SMDs. Whatever la. lol

haha may I share one idea? I stole this idea from some corsair casing actually. biggrin.gif
Instead of their custom made ties just use cheapo ties can do.
RM5 can last u for everything I guess? XD
Not to say very clean la but I am sastified. All un-used cable are sorted. PCI-E/8pin on right side. Molex/Sata on top or Left Side. Easy to access later. Usually the re-useable zip ties are quite big so cut them into half and whoalaa can put in ur casing and use as a clip ^^
Pristine Not sure tho as long its uv reactive led? smile.gif

Maybe can try asking 0whitebox0

Sorry to hear about your GPU Kidz1995. Hopefully it still works, otherwise try an RMA (put back the stock cooler and everything and tell the person you don't know what happen) laugh.gif

To everyone else, has anyone seen this!? drool.gif

4mm thick aluminium, tempered glass side panel. drool.gif

whoaa~! okay that's new to me, I have never ever thought of that before. So if connect to pwm will it works like when on load it glow more brighter?

Haha. no bro. LEDs can only accommodate + and -. Except some which have trileds, which have RGB points.

Thanks for the suggestions guys.
I'm using XSPC GPU Waterblock. I really hope my card still works.
Can I still RMA my card if I already voided the warranty( install custom block,sticker gone ) ?
*
If warranty or any warranty kind of indication sticker gone then I don't think you can, but if you know people, you could try.

Yeah saw the In Win 904 back in December. Damn thing is like a walking monolith.  shocking.gif  But at $240USD, bloody hell it's a steal for something like this. But I don't think it will support much WCing though.

Personally I find it looks amazing. And about the water cooling part, if you really want it to, you can.

For example:

No, that is not my rig.

QUOTE(infernoaswen @ Jan 18 2014, 12:30 AM)
Join it together with a fan then it should work. Else it wont since there is no rpm sensor.
I dont think RGB will allow to what he wants to achieve either. Correct me if I am wrong  hmm.gif
*
The RGB solder points won't work for him either. If you want to achieve variable brightness using the PWM sensor, you'll need to figure out the electrical wiring and do some magic.

QUOTE(Kidz1995 @ Jan 18 2014, 12:31 AM)
Yeah I just did it.
The card already dried and cleaned before I did the rice method. I placed it under fans.
So is it okay if I just leave it inside rice just for one day?
Oh okay  sad.gif
*
Put it in rice to be on the safe side. At this point you've got nothing to lose.

I wouldn't worry so much about the tempered glass scratching. Should take some effort to actually leave visible scratches. I'd worry more about it shattering. laugh.gif

gahh~~ true too. Btw the one come with NZXT Phantom series are actually made of what? it's really easy to get scratch T_T
*
I don't think NZXT has glass windows. It's probably regular plexi.

QUOTE(Chew Yongxian @ Jan 18 2014, 12:40 AM)
Yeah same. That is one heck of a sexy case.

As for WCing, I leave the modding to you pros hahahaha. Of course with enough expertise you can turn normal cases into nuclear reactors. Or this.
*
Those 'nuclear reactor' looking ones would cost a bomb to make here. Local scene isn't exactly modder friendly.

QUOTE(Chew Yongxian @ Jan 18 2014, 12:44 AM)
NZXT Claims it's tempered glass. But my NZXT Switch has not *thank god* had any scratches so far, same for my friends Phantom 410. Was the scratches on the Phantom cases bad?
*
Tempered glass? Really? Where? blink.gif

Sorry, it's "tempered glass" like material. Fancy pants of saying plexi. Guess I read too many Phantom adverts. Lol!

But yeah, true. Would be nice though to actually have a chance to have an empty canvas and go, I'm gonna do whatever the hell I like with this case.
*
lol. plexi doesn't even come close to tempered glass.

Kidz1995 all the best on reviving your gpu! smile.gif
Pristine mind I ask something? Usually for normal tubings right? Compression fittings are like first put ur tube into barblike things then got one right on outside it that can screw it down to secure it ma right?
So compression fittings for Arcylic tubings is not the same? As when I drain my loop it came off quite easily by just pulling it out the arcylic tubing.
*
First statement: correct

Second statement: correct

The method of install is different.

Acrylic tubes are held in place and sealed with o-rings. Flex tubes are held in place by the ridges and spikes of the barb, which grip onto the tubing which seals it.

ohhh no wonder~~~ I tot it is same. So in theory compression fittings are actually more secured than barbs then? smile.gif
*
Actually, it's not completely fair to compare it like that. But generally yeah, compressions are more secure (and also look better) because of the outer compression ring which makes the tubing clamp down harder on the barbs.

If you really want to go into details, there are many different types of designs for the barb section of the compression fitting and normal barb fittings. Not all manufacturers make them the same and some are better/worse than others.

haha alright. Thanks for the insight. If my wc stuff is not gonna be sold I might get some flex tube and compression fittings. Arcylic is nice but I don't have tools to bend it and asking people do ain't that cheap sad.gif
*
Acrylic is really nice if your rig is already set for the long run and you don't see yourself upgrading or changing out parts for a long time. But flex tube is the best in terms of flexibility (maintenance/to work with/upgrading). Only issue is the occasional plasticiser nonsense.

totally agree with u. Draining the loop is also pain in the a**. Btw wanna ask if those wc stuff NVR used for a few months can be still used back?

You should have arranged for a drain port to be made. laugh.gif

Sure, why not. Just make sure they're dried out before storage. keep with silica gel if you must.

Keeps moisture out from rusting or doing funny stuff to your parts, especially the radiator.

I get my silica from https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showuser=155193
