4U Build

[Sir_Zeke]

Today I'm moving my PC to 4U case, lets begin.

Here is a front view of my new case.

I think my  moba will fit:

This is £75 of steel goodness:

Back view:

I think there is to much stuff in it, lets clean it up:

Fan cleaning:

All better now:

I got some silicone gaskets for fans as they do not come with anti vibration mounts:

To be continue...

Front is done I will be using those fans for 360mm radiator but that story for other day:

Middle fans done too:

Test fit for my motherboard:

Small problem this heat sink is to tall:

New CPU cooler then:

Side view:

Moba in with extension cable for my sound card you may seen my GPU take 5 slots so I have to move sound card to second to last slot. I use some electric tape to stop any interference:

Top view:

Lets put some storage in, SSDs are tape to case and normal HDD is screwed from bottom:

Now time for fan controller and main cables, I'm using Aqua Computer QUADRO PWM Fan Controller:

I did put tape on all the connectors as in a past I had problem with them disconnecting:

GPU time, this is EVGA 2080 TI Black with Raijintek Morpheus II and lots of heat sinks to cover vRAM and power section of this card:

Top view:

Close up of heat sinks:

Power section is cooled too, I was able to keep orginal plate from EVGA and get more cooling from it:

Lets add some fans, just joking this are the best fans I had in my life:

All done, added a splitter for my fan controller:

To be continued...

GPU in with with L shape bracket to keep it from sagging as for now case will be on a side:

Closer view:

All done, I will be taking this PC apart in few weeks so no need to cable manage to much:

Final look:

I need to get better duble sided tape but is fine for now:

Tomorrow I will be adding sound dampening foam to side and top of case. Any question please ask and thank you for reading. OO and please let me know what can I do better, I will be puting new MOBA+CPU+RAM and then I will water cool CPU and GPU. I want to put 360mm rad in front move SSDs next to PSU and take out mechanical hard drive.
