Thermaltake core wppp200 water cooled quad loop

[thrasher_565]

ok so thing to know about first. i have dyslexia so spelling and thoughts are all over the place so bare with me.

 

i update things alot so thing will change. and i dont update things that happened.

 

every time you see a blurry image you drank and if you see a foot you do a cold shot! haha ya i need something that dose better pics... i did get a phone but cant drag and drop off of it... so... ya... 

 

oh and also vary thank full for all the views and the LONG waiting time... it will be built at some point...

 

 

so what was the point in having 2 pcs? well i do not like windows 10 and ill have to use windows 10 at some point for the direct x 12. so windows 10 on game pc and windows 7 on my other pc. (edit 8/13/2019 i got a windows 10 laptop and tried to install windows 7 on it but had no luck as its uses nvme drives... so i was forced to use windows 10 but i found ways of disabling most of the stuff for now....) making this whole build pointless....oh well

 

i was going to use two be quiet dark base pro 900 cases as you can swap the insides so i have access to both pcs. and i got a thermaltake core p 200 that i was going to put the two cases on it but did not have a top so ied have to make one. then i decided having 3 peaces for water cooling was not going to work so i did end up buying the thermaltake core w 200 case what i should have done in the first place.

 

Check List things to do:

Spoiler

1: (Working on) swapping the casters with better one's with orange on them. need to drill more holes and mount it.

2: Drill and mount an argb strip on the bottom of the case on the outside and solder wires up and add some way of getting the wires in the case.

3: i ordered  Aquacomputer  farbwerk 360 argb controller to see how i like that might uses aqua computer instead of corsairs icue. aslo got it to get a pin out diagram of it trying to fine what connectors they uses bases off pics. could be jst-sm micro 2.0 i got 1.0 and they look too tinny. there also  Mini Micro ZH 1.5mm and Mini Micro 1.25mm JST also...

4:might need to buy an labeler as its going to get nuts with cables....

5: got another freezermod tank mount so need to drill holes and mount that. Have d5 next pumps and res..

6: Buy a smaller pcie extension cable. Plan on not vertical mount my gpu as i want a 3080/90 gpu with ative back plate so i can see it.

7: Mount the 25mm 4040mm fan in the z170 mark 1 mb. found out the nb fan is 35mm so that thing is loud so undecided on what to do there.

8: solder rgb connectors on 2x rgb power switches

9: mount the argb strip in side that case might need to buy more...

10: mount the corsair/phantek controllers

11: add ek water block too the gpu and add an small argb strip tp that.

12:mout the aquacomputer filters

13: get the mb and mount the gpu and cpu water blocks plum em up.

14: plug in ALL the fans.....

15:add argb strips the the d5 pump tops Have d5 next pumps and res...

16: PLUG in ALL the rgb/ARGB and buy some marshmallows....

17: add the second psu and wire up all the rgb to that. add a power switch for it (might need to buy another rgb switch as i only got 2 1 for each pc and need one for the other psu.

18:Make custom length usb 2.0 cables

19: might add mb backside lighting dont no yet.

20: add wb to the m.2 drives

20: might add a m.2 sata pcie card becuse w7 wont install on an m.2 but it will in sata mode. at the 6gb seed thow

21: looking at buying a 3090/3080 with wb with active back plate still looking at deals...

22: upgrading the z170 mark 1 and 6600k to x299 gigabite gaming 7 mb but having hard time find one as the one i did get was doa.

23: got 4x 8gb gskill ddr4 3200 cl14-14-14-34 1.35v need to find out to pull the heat sinks off and mount the ram wbs

24:make custom power rest conetors

ya i did not no it was a micro mb at the time. some time's it better to just save up for what you want then having to buy what you need later on. i wanted an tuf heat shield mb (did end up buying a z270 tuf mark 1 but i really want the z170 mark 1 just for that 40mm fan...call me crazy...)

here was my old water cooled pc look. i cheaped out on fitting and well i should have just gotten the 90 degree fittings. the koolance fan controler and what not i fried when i got an upgrade for it... v1 dose not go with v2.... up in smoke $200

 

 

sad that i dont have a pic of the rads but i had 2 360 rad both with 6 fans and 3 shrouds for push pull.

but then i had problems with it and taking it part was a pain in the back side

 

so i quit and ripped everything out and said i was done with water cooling....untill now

so first off why the hell not to polish the back? real high quality my ass.

second i was going to add an 5mm led stopper on the back...but its g1/8 threaded.... and i did spend $20 for 4x plugs that i cant use.

if i do what to use em ied have to get an g1/8 to g1/4 thread adapter and spend even more money (taxe, shipping, border fees, ass fees...)

never mind trying to find the rare as balls g1/8 led stop they advertise with... (edit i found them and got 4 of them but don't have the g1/8 to g1/4)

and how do i empty it? if i want to do it with an tube ied first have to buy the 4x adapter then buy another 4x $15 valve's and most like need a male to male thread adapter on the valve .... on and on and on

 

[thrasher_565]

and it may be cool but how do you mount it is another problem.

 

 

 

i guess this is the best way for now. ill just have to mount one pump on the 2 hole plate and put the psu in the pedestal?  would need psu extetions too. but then ied have to mount the rads in the case. it would be a shame to cover up the nice rads thow... im trying to make it so i can just open an valve and have all or most of the water flow out.

 

would mounting the rads in the case make this a problem? i do no that the drain port has to be at the lows point and all the liquid would need a way to flow downward. any tips would be nice plz and thx

5X g/14 tip prob stoppers

pci digital out (might mod it to work with my mb since it did not come with one but dose support it )

fans mounted to the rad what fun that was....not. because of there stupid gray rubber around the fan you cant put them agents each other so i had to use nuts to off set it... stupid

 

http://

 

http://

 

http://

 

the 120mm shrouds have 4x 5mm led holes i might attempt to put rgb leds in but i sux a soldering. i have an idea to use a ribbing cables  like ide cables.

 

 

other mods i was thinking of are a volt meter and an rpm meter but don't no how i would do it. was think of a toggle swiich to select what part i want to read out so having 1 volt meter and 1 rpm meter for everything. i did order a black 2 slot pci from mouton mods  but have not got it yet. want to do a vertical gpu. other mods was to make my own dust cover out of plexy glass and use standoff to mount it. then use thermaltakes 16x pcie extension and a 16x 90 riser but that's a lot of money haha weill see.

why

?

[thrasher_565]

http://

Two pedestals!

http://

kinda how its going to look

http://

Gpu mount form Mouton mods

http://

gpu water block

http://

(at this point you like hey was there not a mb water block on there?) you would be right and no i didn't take it off. so at some point i got a cheap 1366mb and my dad got the asus rampage extreme 2 mb and he got a 960 i got the 920 he also got the good corsair donators gt (or the ones that you can add a water block to) i got cheap gskills ram that i rip the heat sink off and out killer therm alright heat sinks on...kuz why not.attaching an 120mm fan to your ram not crazy..... anyway we were rebuilding my pc and spilled water on it and killed it.... so my dad when on ebay and got another asus rampage extreme 2 mb for me so we both have the same mb. well i ended up putting a water block on mine and my dad just added a water block to the north bridge. later on he was doing something with a gpu heat sink and shorted 2 ram slots on his mb so he got another asus rampage extreme 2 mb but never got around to testing it as he just upgraded. so at this point we have 3 asus rampage extreme 2 mb's well the one he got to replace his alo has 1 ram slot broken the one in this pic that hes no mb water block on it as i said before i was done with water cooling and traded my water cooled mb for his air cool one (but he dint no the ram slow was broken) so since i have 4 pumps and only 3 blocks i might get my water cooled mb back form my dad the one that has all ram slots working. confusing i no haha now to  convince my dad  to trade the water cooled ram......that's another story haha

 

kinda how its going to look. still have to move one of the res and wating on some 90 mounts to mount the gpu bracket the cable is kinda long...oh well. i might put a 90 on it. i have another mod i want to do is a dust shield out of plexiglass that will cover the the mb. kinda like the mark 1 tuf mb but poor mans way. also have some ideas on mounting fans to it or on the side to channel air around..

[thrasher_565]

upgraded the mb to an asus z270 mark 1.

[thrasher_565]

 

had it all together....but could not get the air bubles out!....so i rip it out yet another time. plan z at this point....

 

[thrasher_565]

new changes! started over.... nor res new pump mount trying to figer out the leds.

 

 

psu to control all the leds with 1 button so i can sleep at night!

 

Shit ton of corsair hd 120 refurbished (saved $10 a set of 3)

 

 

pc 2 side no window side so don't really care how it looks i might make it look better down the road. all the fan wires will go thou this side.

 

 

changed were the pedestals are so both on top.

 

 

 

 

i should have gotten a quad rad...

 

 

kinda layout for the fan lighting.

 

 

got some generic pwm 10 fan hubs but found out only 1 fan is controlled buy the cpu motherboard making it just a hub at full power... really bad marketing. so ill just have to wire up my own.

 

 

 

don't buy!

 

 

[thrasher_565]

might do the power with terminals we will see. (pic not mine just for the idea.)

 

 

waiting on china to ship the dam 4 pin pwm extensions... and some zip tiy mounts so i can finisher drilling holes for the rgb strip... sight been like 85 days of waiting...

 

 

[thrasher_565]

 so it began. i had a commander pro with 2x 3 pin cables....but i need 5...so i was like well ill make my own.

 

 

part 1 buying every cable no wen to man.

 

 

20 mints with crimping and soldering i got 1 wire done... this was not going to work i suck balls!

 

part 2 buying every combo of DuPont connector out there...EVERY ONE!

 

I got 1 pin male to male / 1 pin  female to female / 1pin female to male / 3 pin male to male / 4 pin female to female / 1 pin pre terminal male to male / 1 pin pre terminal fe male to female / 1 pin pre terminal male to female  so i can just at the housing to them no crimping needed! which would have worked but how do you keep the plugged in to the lighting hub and commandeer pro and node pro. Gule? maybe build up a bump with nail polish? i just might cut of the 3 pin off of the 3 button controller that all the corsair fans come with. what a wast of money...but i can use some of the DuPont for leds for my pc and other project like Nintendo systems...might post a build log of that.
