The cpu is on vapochill and the X1900XTX 512mb is watercooled.
I finally finished my case mods. First mod was to build the vapo case. I was given one of those old Shaw cases, so I basically cut it in half and turned it upside down and use the bottom front of the case for the top front.

Shortened all the side, added mesh to the rear with front and rear 120mm case fans and cut a 90mm hole in the front panel, glued a lenght of 90mm polly in there, bogged it up and lots of sanding and priming and then painting I came up with the blowhole.

I had a UV grill from a 80mm case fan lying around so I thought I'd put that in behind the blowhole just for looks. Also the front panel has two working USB ports.

I have a large sheet of 5mm tinted perspex and I case a "wave" out like what the Tsunami had on the top and bottom of the cases, just to finish it off.

The actual pc case is a Thermaltake Tsumani with the front door removed as doors are really anoying and never need to be there so off it came. Not much modding to the Tsunami except for some holes cut in the base for the vapo to come through and some wiring. A couple of front grilles, one in the floppy bay where the chill control sit and the other in the spare drive bays.
The final product :

Very nice work but I have one quick thing to ask is that a temp probe read out for the evap head that says -145? If so that thing has to be way off "-145 degree Fahrenheit = -98.3333333 degree Celsius" unless that's one hell of a vapo lol.

Nice - very nice Opti. That mod of yours is the sort of thing I aspire to.

Would love to have your case sitting on my desk.

What is the noise like?
