Bertha 2.0 (Modded Prodigy with 520MM of radiator)

I am planning to do something similar with the 280mm, but with a 200mm in the front, any things to look out for?

 

PS: sigularity computers rules!!!

Oh man that looks so cool, I'm looking forward that I can build something like this with my Prodigy M or a Modded Prodigy for mATX. This Case looks really badass and has tons of cooling

Sorry about the late response, moving has cut me off from the internets :( really the key thing is having some extra hands and making sure all your components will fit before ordering. You shouldn't have as much trouble since your putting a 200mm in the front but once you get in there, there isn't much room so having help inside and out of the case is awesome. Otherwise, just typical stuff. Leak test well because, believe it or not, fittings are also a pain in the ass in here! Still, if you're getting good static pressure fans I really recommend these radiators due to how compact they are (I've seen some that are 2x as thick *cough* EK *coughcough*). Finally, try and arrange it so that the front is intake and the top is exhaust, that way convection can keep everything flowing nicely. By now I'm probably rambling so if you have anything else that needs answering feel free to contact me!

Thanks!

I am afraid of negativ air pressure because I will use a air penetrator 180mm in the front (intake) vs 2 x 140mm noctua (if the black ones come soon;) in the top.

the rads will be phobya 200mm extreme 2.0 and phobya g-changer 280mm 2.0 if I get room for the 55mm thick one;)

The plan is to have as much cooling as possible in the world in this case:)))

Sounds great :D I've never feared positive or negative air pressure just because I like to keep my computer tidy with a can of compressed air anyways :P A word of warning: While most people watercool for quiet performance, when you get something this compact and awesome, it can be a bit more noisy (but still in no way loud) than your typical watercooled system.

Hoping to get this done soon (lots of cable/sleeving work going on at the moment). In addition to a mineral oil computer in the works :D

Thanks for the tips!

The people down at prodigy need to adopt your modded case as a case design you can buy cause yours looks much better than anything they have made lol

Thanks! I think I was quite lucky. Almost stable at 5GHz but I've tuned it down to 4.8 to keep it safe. That thing definitely isn't getting hot any time soon  :D
