    More fool me for letting a third party get involved in powder coating my case.

    Im sure if you wanted to save a bit of cash, you could go straight to a powder coaters and ask them if they could put your case in with something else their doing. (bit of a cheek maybe) but im sure with persausive powers you could do it.

    I just got lazy this time around and as i was after a new case, i thought it would be easy to let them supply the case and have it powder coated.

    My freing gets a lot of powder coating done and said i could put it in with his next order, so long as i wanted black.

    OOOPs, no i wanted White (just to be awkward).

    I paid £70... Which ended up pretty ok i suppose.... That included, stripping down, sending off, reassembly,delivery. ( i dont think they realised it would take quite as long to strip down (but theyd already quoted).

    You think thats bad, I want it artworked inside and out.

    The artist i use is likeley to charge £300 for the insides, and maybe double that for all the outside panels.

    This im not sure about getting done if it costs too much.
    Im deffinateley not going through a middle man to get this done.

    So if you know of a good airbrush artist in the uk..... Lets here em please.

    This should help people out interested in this service.... (Man i wish i could paint).

    I finally finish installing the water cooling here are the pics.

    [​IMG]

    This is my load temperature now at 3.6 mhz

    [​IMG]

    With my Zalman 9700 It would go as high as 75c at 3.6mhz 1.4volt, I think i could go higher so later when I have more time ill see if I can get more out of this processor. Any comments are welcome.

    Yeah it took me a while to save the money for it. If my step up for the new geforce 9800gtx wouldn't have gotten approved I would have used the money for the water cooling to get a new video card.

    Im glad ive gone for a bigger case this time, Theres just so much space in there, kinda makes my current pcs watercooling really cramped.

    Stop it with the green liquid though.......:) Blue, Red, Etc.

    R603 tygon tubing yes?

    I noticed not much anti kink coil required.

    Tygon is just such a large diameter OD that coil stuff just breaks on me everytime. (need some Koolance stuff, but cant find it).
    Watercooling is so coooooool..

    Ultima_Warrior ; thanks ;) , yeah me too , I'd trade my Stacker 830 for the Cosmos S any day , it's a must buy case...

    surrealX; eheh , thanks alot :)

    MAD-OGRE: great we're stuck with the same tv..lol
    No just kidding , it's a great tv , one of the best for it's price..
    Here in Asia , I payed slightly more..eeKK :(
    Still cheap for market standards here , 1600-1700$
    Just a few days back I had the luxury of tring the Samsung F81(Asian F81=American F71) 46'' , had it for 2 days...
    Contrast 25000:1 , 1080p

    It impressed me beyond my expectations..
    It was 100% better then my current TV , even 720p sources looked much better..
    Colors and skin tones were so much better , if not the best I've seen..
    I almost bought it , till I decided to wait for the F9 Samsung , which has a contrast of 50000:1 , has LED backlight , going to be out this summer...
    It's out in the U.S , it's called the F81 there..
    Black levels are said to be better then the Pioneer Kuro Plasmas..

    About the sticker , I'll normally dont remove the sticker , dont know why...but it feels better having it on...lol :D

    ---
    Guys the best way to clean my computer case , I've figured out is by using Liquid Car Polish... (I use Turtle)
    My Case looks brand new now and doesn't get finger prints easily , if at all.. :D
    If you notice the blue top of my old stacker is shining...
    Hadn't done my Stacker 830 in the photo..
    I've done it now and it looks mint now...

    then again thanks for the kind words guys.... ;)

    i dunno about the Cosmos S. i mean... i wouldn't have called it a Cosmos seeing as the original focused on silence.... whereas the Cosmos S seems to have focused on the exact opposite. seriously..... 3x 120mm top fans, 120mm rear fan, 120mm bottom fan, 120mm front fan..... boatloads of mesh? Yeah, it's much more water-cooling friendly.... but it just doesn't scream Cosmos to me (screams, yes..... not cosmos). Also don't like how the PSU fan filter isn't accessible from the outside of the case (could make it possibly difficult to remove and clean depending how your wiring job is inside the case), and that they abandoned the filter on the bottom fan, which is where you can probably expect quite a bit of dust to get vacuumed up. A lot of people also seem to dislike that they ditched the kinda Mac-esque hard drive bays in place of the used-nine-thousand-times-before Stacker bay setup.

    I really wanted to used a different color liquid but my case already has a lot of blue and I wanted the water to stand out and every red liquid I seen looks more like pink, as for black liquid I wanted something uv reactive so the only choice that I had at the moment was UV green. If anyone know of a really red cooling liquid let me know.

    Cooler Master originally wanted to call it the Cosmos Type S (S = sport = performance) so maybe silence wasn't exactly what they were going for. Another case had already been branded with "Type S" so CM had to go with plain S.

    Lots of awesome rigs. I really need to get to rewiring and taking pics of mine.
