Corsair 750D modded First water cooling build.

[-onionz-]

Hi good people, well my build started with me catching a few of Daz's videos on youtube. I always like building, working on or fixing pc's, so this was an awesome hobby that i bumped into. So i been reading for months and still am. I wish i would of been part of this community when i started my project. I found it hard to find the right answers to my million questions. I have no friends that are informed of this hobby either.

After i purchased the corsair 750d i noticed that the front panel that covers the 2x140mm fans had awful air flow so i started with that issue first. I taped and cut the panel out with my Dremel and burned through about 6 blades. Seemed to be a decent cut. Then i cut out the metal insert for the front grill and another 6 blades.
Here are a few pics to start. .... and my Phone cam is not so hot, new cam is in the mail.
Hope i'm doing this right..

5 attached images per post. Just use another post to post more or get a Photobucket account up load them there and post using the BB-Code [img][/img]

Nice work so far. Looks good. We love to see the hack n slash.

Nice work on the front panel. That metal perforated grill looks like something I saw at Lowes

This will definitely solve the airflow issues, and welcome to the "10+ Dremel blade usage club"

Right on i guess i earned a place in your blade busting club koolio ... I almost lost a few eyeballs when i forgot my glasses one time.

Thank God the 750d is made with cheap metal compared to my Zalman Dragon rider now that case would of broke 25 blades easy. :p

wanna see the inside pics with all these pumps.

I just hooked up my 2 loops but one of my pumps was dead for the cpu so i really haven't fired it up yet. Maybe it'll be a new type of sprinkler system who knows lol. :p I do get my pump and some goodies tomorrow . So i will slapper together and post right away for you after bleeding which might be lil tricky we'll see. I need to learn to make my connectors cuz i only have factory for now. Sadly it's not as eye catching as most the ones i seen here. Another note i wanted a blue uv build but my Dad said he was hoping for a red theme build.. he's old and if it makes him happy then i makes me happy red it is.

Here is a side view with single loop from a month or so ago.. Best i can do atm sorry nass lol. My package was delayed till tomorrow.

I had an issue when i opened my EK supremacy waterblock and found this gunk on the inner water pressure plate. Mind you i went through 3-4 different tubing not knowing about plasterciser issues. I used distilled water and dazMode protector only. So i assume it has to be the different tubings i think...hmm anyone seen this ..this bad? Check it out.







Anyone seen this amount clogging the flow plate before?

[Bartacus]

That looks like a zombie blew his nose into your plate. Seeing pics like that makes me never want to open my CPU block, ever! Nice hacking too btw.

[-onionz-]

zombie snot yea exactly. Just by chance i opened it up, i really didn't want to open it and cause a leak or whatever. I'm glad i did, and Thanx man !

[Necrodead]

I really want to see that mesh installed, very unique design!

Hey Necrodead. I bought the metal sheet at a metal fabricating shop. I was able to walk around the shop and found that sheet in a scrap pile so i got it for like $15. The backside door i added a 120mm fan to cool the backplate of the cpu and the backside ram lanes. For that one i bought a caselabs accessories and used pre fabbed mount and grill.




I Simply taped the whole front panel did my measurements and cut it with a Dremel. The back of the front panel has a ton of ribs. I had to remove them in order for the grill to fit flush to the panel. I ended up getting broken blades in the face left and right.



On the back side of the front panel just mixed up some crazy strong Epoxy and pasted it 2 inches wide around the rim all around it.

Originally the grill was a darker silver so i painted it flat black looks better i think. What do you like better silver or black?
