[HYDRA]: Classified - the Giant Workstation / 5+Ghz Gaming Battlestation on Intel X299, nVidia SLI and Extreme Watercooling

Crazy build! Followed..

I never see a PC build like this..

 

I have question for your G700S, how does it perform? What's the pros and cons of that mouse?

My system specs:

Thanks for that words. I have another crazy build in 2011 (i7 990X @ 5Ghz, EVGA Classified, 24Gb 2400Mhz RAM, 3-WAY SLI GTX580, 1500W PSU Enermax, 3x 27" LG Ips), but its time to upgrade)

 

About the G700s: I guess that this is one of the best mouses in the world for working. Especialy for big handed people. I am 190sm high and for me my ROG Pugio is less conveniant than G700s, but I bought it with ROG Cleymore to have all AURA Sync with it)

But I didn't sell my G700s and using it for working and some games. But ROG Pugio is faster in first person shooters.

Pedestal video, entire HYDRA-case without hardware yet. Hardware will be inside very soon!

 

Video of MAX fan's rpm and comfort rpm sounds
Disclamer: I am not a video blogger, not a streamer! I don't have good mic, and iPhone can't record noise properly! In real life the fans noise is MUCH more quite!!! And in comfort mode (600-1200rpm) the noise is in comfort.
SORRY FOR RUSSIAN in video.  Its for my friends. See the RPM on fan controller!
https://youtu.be/15BKwsY1XK4

 

THIS IS IT! The HYDRA case with Pedestal. But without from panel. I want to redo some things on it)

And this is case on my huge custom table with my triple monitor (27+43+27 inches) setup (without final cable management of course) - just for understanding of the size (1010mm!!!)

ONE 3pin connector controls ALL 18x 120mm fans via Lamptron FC5v2 (it has a 30W per channel)

Amazing build mate! But I've just got 1 question, why didn't you go for G-Skill's Trident Z RGB Royal Clocked at 3200MHz? It's fast and looks wayyy nicer (no offence to your current choice.)

Current PC (Second Build) : CPU: Ryzen 5 1600 (OC @3.8GHz, sometimes pushed to 4GHz) RAM: 16gb Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro DDR4-2666 (OC @2733Mhz, sometimes pushed to 2800 for testing purposes)   GPU: PowerColor Radeon RX570 8gb MOBO: ASRock B450m Pro4 SSD: Inland 120gb HDD: 1tb Seagate Barracuda PSU: Cooler Master Masterwatt 500w Lite Case: NZXT H500 OS: Arch Linux+ KDE Plasma [Desktop Environment] & Windows 10 Pro [Broken due to grub 50% of the time]

 

Accessories: Mouse: Alienware AW958 Elite Keyboard: Corsair K63 Wireless  Headphones: Samsung Level On Pro

 

Phone (waiting on arrival): Samsung Galaxy Note 9

  • 2 weeks later...

So... I had MANY problems with this build since I posted my last log :(
It's always like that, when you building such huge progect...

There are some of problems, and how I solve them:
*I had leaks in few spots - I changed my tubes and some fittings
*Both my Lamptron FC5v2 fan controllers has been broken!!! - I repaired and modified them! They have power of 30W per chanell. But now they can work with 60W per chanell.
*The serial pump configuration in my Koolance RP452x2 top-reservoir was incorrect. It was very loud and had not enough flow rate! - 
*ROG cable was too short for my connection - I modified it to 1.5m, and sleved it to black sleave. It had 16 wires!!! O_o
*EK-WB R6E Monoblock was factory broken - I returned it by warranty and recieve new!
...and other 10+ small problems.

And now I can continue my worklog. So let's do it:
*Koolance RP452x2 top-reservoir: how it was and how it is now!
IMG-2223.jpg
IMG-2474.jpg
*New EK Monoblock for my Rampage VI Extreme
