After looking through many custom built liquid cooling pics on various forums, I have to say that this PC is my favourite. It shows a great deal of creative innovation and talent regarding recycling and reuse. What a work of art. I love the fact that you have taken older hardware and breathed new life into it in such an original fashion. Well done, and may others follow your style instead of spending loads of cash on boring, over-priced, factory manufactured crap.
Beautiful piece of functional artwork! KUDOS to you, for the use of the automotive and small engine flywheels, the differential ring gear, the trans gears etc.. Any true mechanic/techie would be proud to own one of these!
Everything is art; everything has the potential to become art. This computer not only serves as art, but the way it's set up means hot air wont be trapped inside of a case. You wont need to worry too much about it over-heating in the summer, and there's less places for dust to collect. This also makes RAM, processor, and graphics card upgrades easier. It's not only for art- The only thing you lose by doing this is the practical ability to take it with you.
They like "This stuff" because it's creative, and it shows that computers can become odd, and awesome pieces of art, and creativity as well. I think this computer is- And pardon my French- Fucking badass. ^_^
how did you like that mcw30? I don't have one of the $500-$600 mobo's so there isn't a company that makes a nb/sb water block for my mobo, it's only $25 so I was thinking about picking one up, I only have my cpu being water cooled right now. not sure if I need it but it would be nice to put the mcw30 in for appearance values. haaha
the hard drives should be kept level to the ground because the platters inside could get scratched if you bump the table and its less strain and make the drives last longer
I do serious modding... and i really like what youve done, its creative and to the point... I love it.... i would recommend maybe rusting your gears with a rust kit... its iron base paint with an activator... the activator rust the iron in the paint.. insta rust... would look sweet with what you have going there.
Hey you can sell that for a shit load of money... half pc half art... just make sure water dont leak... i build custom pcs for friends but thats going way out wich is pretty cool.
hey man nice way to rig stuff up like that! i do stuff like this all the time! but umm one question, have you ever experienced radio or microwave (same as radio but you dont always remeber) interference due to the lack of shielding (i.e. case)?
because i do alot of experiments and such with high voltage and whatnot, and i remember i fried my good ol' buckling spring keyboard (idk why only THAT fried..) when i had it hooked to my 386 board. As long as you dont live next door to me, you probably wont have to worry about this happening but i would like to know if this type of thing has ever happened to you.
How about encasing the guts with a clear, 2pc. globe. You could cover the seam with something like a thin strip of flexible brass and still be able to show off and cut down on the noise.
Should see mine with an ancient decade old steel case that has thicker metal than most cars! Plus with a dozen fans 1/2 kilo heatsink on the NB in order just get my retro e6400 to get just to 2630mhz on old p5nsli plus a cheap heatsink for the cpu with as5. Get 20 to 30c isn't bad.
I'm sorry that I lashed out on you. I was having a really bad day at work. You just happened to comment on my video. I am a wanna be gangsta, I should have understood that it was a good hood joke. In reading my reply again, that shit was harsh, my bad. I tainted the good nature of my comment thread, may the youtube gods forgive me.
Good luck modding your case, and remember; Keep your powder dry...
Windows XP does recognise it, it's the fact that your OS is only 32bit, Windows XP 64bit or any 64bit OS recognises more than 4GB of ram. XP 64bit does 128GB =)
your PSU needs to be changed or lubricated...it makes a whole lotta noise! i had the same problem and eventually it shorted out...it took my motherboard with it! T_T a sad day indeed...had to survive 3 weeks without a pc
(if i'm wrong about the source of the noise please tell me)
The power supply is brand new, in fact, it is up to be modified to be Mineral Oil Cooled. What you are hearing clattering, or sounding like its about to meet the end of its lifecycle is the submerged pump. Now, the submerged pump did die that day tho.
