Offical Show Your Rig Off

Judas · May 8, 2009, 06:56 AM

yeah.. i haven't put the side panel on my cosmos since i built it... sitting on the floor in my house...... both z-5500's running at the same time kick up a crapload of dust.... the water in the water in the toilet bowl actually produce ripples

Mac Daddy · May 8, 2009, 01:11 PM

Dust is moderate here although in the last few weeks running this case I have found 190mm fans really collect it

The amount of dust that built up was unbeleivable..She had much more dust between the fins of the cpu heatsink than air space.. I was surprised the Fan continued to run.

Happened to my parents' old computer too....I told them to keep it all cleaned out and they didn't listen.....The heatsink actually got hot enough to melt the fan right off the screws

Couldn't believe it when I looked at it.

neocongirl · May 16, 2009, 10:15 AM

The shop got done with my side panel finally!

I popped out the stock mesh and had acrylic cut with the edges sanded and flamed (or flamed and sanded? :P) for a smooth look and mounted it...I think next up will obviously be i7 (maybe i5) and a Cosmos S case, I love Cooler Master

Mac Daddy · May 16, 2009, 01:37 PM

Wow that looks really sharp nice job

Chaos · May 16, 2009, 04:58 PM

very nice looking for sure

I use it to play around with different os's (Win7 right now) and as a backup when my main PC is down for whatever reason.

And thanks for the comments everyone!

I bet you will be waiting another good couple of months yet, if not longer.

Lowfat · May 19, 2009, 01:07 AM

still waiting on Meanwell PSU for the upgraded TEC for the Cooler Master V10 so stuck on stock cooling.

Tyrsonswood · May 19, 2009, 04:06 AM

Clean man!

Mac Daddy · May 19, 2009, 01:16 PM

Clean and excellent cable management

procupine14 · May 20, 2009, 01:31 AM

anonemus · May 20, 2009, 03:36 AM

aside from being neat, i like it's simplicity. beautiful.

BlueMak · May 20, 2009, 03:42 AM

I know what you mean

. All those slick black sleeved wires reminds me of the machines in the Matrix.

lepel · May 20, 2009, 08:08 PM

Dang, I'm jealous. How come the cables are all black?

Each cable is individually sleeved. ~ 150 feet of sleeving and about 10 hours of work.

Lowfat, nice cable management there.
I'm curious what you paid for that 150ft of sleeving and what size you used. Mind giving some details?

I was thinking about getting 50 or 100FT of 1/8" and/or 1/4". I wish my PSU's cables were plain like molex or Black and not silver. At least I can sleeve my fan wires and such.

Best sleeving you can buy without a doubt and not horribly priced either. They also sell heatshrink and sleeving for SATA cables.

If you wanted to do your whole PSU, I have my doubts 100 feet will be enough.
