Self Contained Water Cooled System

Specifications

This case was probably the most important part of teh entire liquid cooled system. If we were going to have a self contained liquid cooled system we had to fit it all into this case. Luckily we were able to with a few 'ahemm' modifications to the cassis and case.

AFTER doing some measurements it looked like things were going to fit in :-) Next was the motherboard.

Motherboard

I looked at three of my favorites (Asus P2B, Aopen AX6BC, Abit BH6,BX6) I have the Asus and the Aopen and for this project the Abit offered some advantages that Asus and Aopen did not "voltage manipulation". So I got the Abit BH6, it was perfect for this project - the BX6 was great too but my supplier did not have any. Time was a big factor in this project; I only had 5 days to build it so I was not going to wait for any parts to come in.
