Project "Cheappy"

[jeffrey_rodriguez]

I had fun building it..

it was cheap (cheappy) but it was worth it

took a lot of planning for a newbie like me

i just hope you guys will like it

I would be happy to get some suggestion and comments..

 

Parts list:

Aerocool QS-202

Amd fm1 A8-3870K

Gigabyte A75-S2v

Amd entertainment editon 4gb ram

Sapphire HD6950

Seagate 1TB ]

WD 250 Gb for my games

Corsair 60gb force gt ssd boot drive

Huntkey jumper 550watts

modified corsair H60 with FTW res

two corsair SP120's

anted 140cm fan

 

the test fit...

removed some hdd bays to give way to my gpu

 

some sleeving...

for me this was the fun part, testing the gpu and it was my firs time to use an SSD

placing the SSD

this was the biggest challenge

making my H60 something special

finding the easiest way to install this..

finding a way where i can set the tubes to shortest way as possible..

 

THE TEST!!!!!

I thought it will be leaking a lot since I used cable ties to hold the tube on the pump and rad

 

 

almost there.. this was the run after the leaktest...

 

after two hours of testing

this it the finished build

 

i hope you guys like it

thanks for viewing

very nice. Like the colour scheme

[Andi]

really nice sleeving, i like what you did with the corsair H60 !

[TommyHItmarkers]

Nice work on modding the H60!

[Emkryan]

Nice job, but I really think you should have stuck with blue to fit the case/mobo. Still a well thought out build

[XiaoPigs]

Never thought I would see a modded H60 awesome! Nice work on the sleeving as well :)

 

Red white and blue f*ck yea! Murcia pew pew pew pew pew pew pew pew

[mvitkun]

this is great,love the h60 mod.

[bennyino]

looks awesome

[Taipeek]

The blue back of the case looks awesome! :) I've never saw that before.

[amintha1992]

i like the H60 mod. but make sure you keep the loop clean. because otherwise it could damage the pump.  

[MalcolmSex]

In awe over that H60. Also I really like your SSD placement and some of those heatshrink-less cables

[Nicktrance]

That sleeving looks really good, as does the colourful colour scheme.

I'm a bit suprised by all the AIO liquid cooler mods lately, how are the temps compared to the original H60?

[TicTac]

Wow that's really cool man i like it :)

[KNaph]

Wow this is really cool, I kinda wish I had put more of a color scheme to my build.

 

Does the modded H60 provide any benefits or is it purely for aesthetics?

[Reuben]

Is that MDPC-X sleeving?

[Shikarikato]

Did you measure temperature before and after? I would love to know if there was a difference or not.

Nice build, awesome to see that personal touch on the h80. Great choice of hardware. Btw did you notice any difference in performance on the H80?

Hi guys!!!, huge thanks for the compliments... 

The h60 performed better after the mod

 

stock h60 temp:

82 degrees celcious after running IntelBurn in test @high

 

after h60 modification:

67 degrees celcious after running IntelBurn In test TWICE!! one after the other@high :D

 

it was a farely good result, so i don't regret what i did to my h60

 

"maybe because there was such amount of water added to the system that made temps lower...." :)

 

i had the h60 running for about 3hours before i installed it to my system,, 

[jeffrey_rodriguez]

i really want to thank you and answer you one by one but i cant figure out how to answer each post..

[g3org3y01]

Amazing little rig 

[jeffrey_rodriguez]

here's a result...

this was the second run of Intel Burn In test

 

 

 

[Shikarikato]

Looking good, sounds just like some person who got his GTX 690 and installed two H60s on it and got some near custom water loop temps!

[iisshaun]

Thats a really neat idea for the Corsair, I imagine it would be a bit cheaper than getting all the proper bits.

[JAKEBAB]

Wow that is awesome and very inspirational!

[edschofield15]

Nice H60 Mod, I like the way you mounted the SSD
