Project: L3p L4n - Custom Fullcover Mars II waterblock

l3p-NL
Level 9


Post with final pictures <---


First of all sorry for posting it while I already got a few hundred pictures.
Here's my introduction post on the ROG forum and the explanation why I'm a bit late : )

Still I want to post it here since this is the place to be with ROG hardware!



This time not a scratch build, but a "normal" casemod.

Before i came in touch with the world of modding and watercooling i played a lot with HTPC's
Back then i fell in love with all the cases of Origen AE.
Every time i was on their site, i just had to watch the topmodel.
I knew it was just too expensive for me, also personally i think the 12" touchscreen is useless for an htpc.
But still ... it looks so nice....

Because i won some prizes with "L3p D3sk" in the Coolermaster compo,
and because it was time to prepare my next build i took the step to go for the Origen S21T.
Also because i wanted to build something that is more easy to take to lans then my previous build ^^
I have also chosen this case because i didn't see it being modded much yet.

So it won't become an Htpc but a real watercooled gamer pc : )









The hardware that will probably be used in this case:

Origen AE S21T Black

Here all the first unpacking photo's.


I want to use the grey plexi for the top window.
The other plexi is just for playing with it and to find out about different colors.








Enermax Vegas fans @ 800 RPM, i hope they will do.
At least they are very silent.






The Koolance stuff still in plastic.




The Koolance Reservoir/Pump/Fancontroller/Pumpcontroller.
Will be completely disassembled later on.






And the Koolance Top + Heat sink (For the looks : P )



Damn dude, it looks just fabulous and look at that screen.. i would spend a week straight on play Project Cars on that thing !

Do you need a butler ? Im good at cleaning and cooking 😞

Marco from Cooler Master Nederland thanks for this silent but powerful PSU !












Now we can test some things : )

The pump

This will be the place for the pump and fans. I will remove the logo by the way : D




Tested it before i disassemble it.
It works : )




Pretty compact.







Couldn't get the tubes off without cutting them.




Getting the top on it.




And the heat sink. (Yes... only for the looks : P )




Done !






And a small movie of the controller in action. Maybe i will disable that beep, or atleast make it less loud.

And received some material !
I'm very happy with it, no i can also measure some more.
You can´t see it very well on photo´s but it´s very narrow all inside.








And the the very nice package from EKWB !
Also got the raincoat, no-one wanted it there, but since im from Holland ... : P










Going to use the EK Top/Res instead of the Koolance top, this cause of the limited space i have.
The Koolance heatsink will remain.









Thanks Gregor and EKWB !

Used the hardware from the CM compo to fit some more in.
As you can see, not much space.








I've been talking a lot to Kier lately.
We also exchange a lot of hardware and WC products.
Also we ordered @ MDPC-x together, told him i didn't have much time the coming 3 weeks. So he said, send me the PSU with the rest, i'm bored.

So ... Made by Kier : )





One week later this was on my table : )









Also extra sleeve for the sata cables and some mounting stuff, the rest will follow.



Richard .. thanks a lot my friend, no one who can do this faster and better : )





For the Koolance controller. 2 x Koolance temp sensor and 1 x Koolance flowsensor






Hope it'll go to 5Ghz : )




And tape, lots of tape to protect the case later on.




Because i only know since a few weeks i have to cool down 2 Matrix cards i ordered fans with 1500 rpm now, think 800 rpm won't be enough.
Luckily i could change the red blades without a problem.






Rear fan replaced, also a black fanguard, screws will come later.



Lets change the PSU too.
