Project "Envy" The Green Machine
Well its time for some upgrades, I will be reusing my current board and CPU and will wait a little longer for BD to mature. At any rate I have picked up a few new components to get things started.
Some Acid green tubing, looks great. To be honest I loved the way this tubing looked so much it was what I am building the system around LMAO I know stupid right oh well.
I will be adding a second D5 MCP655 pump
A new res, although I really like my current tube 250ml it's just to big for me this time around I am going for a stealth look, and the micro res fits the bill.
A new housing for both pumps in a signal loop for redundancies purposes and increased flow and head pressure.
I will also be picking up some green LED fans unfortunately the ones I want I can't seem to find any more so I may end up calling the manufacturer to see if they can help me out.
Here is a pic of the fans at any rate
I will also be adding a second 480 Rad to my loop, hence the second pump and housing, so I will have this added onto the build along with my 360.
This is going to be a long term project as money permits, as things progress I will keep the thread updated.

Steve I will definately be watching the progression of this upgrade. I also like the look of the greeen as blue and red are so common now days that green is a very nice alternative!

Re: Project "Envy" The Green Machine
nobody in particular
Well I think I have chosen the case we will see what transpires here in a few weeks. I won't be getting the pedestal. but it looks pretty dam nice with the green window.

Re: Project "Envy" The Green Machine
It has been decided that you will go with the case on the right with the green window...your vote is irrelevant.
:D:

Re: Project "Envy" The Green Machine
There both the same case the one on the right is on top of the pedestal

Re: Project "Envy" The Green Machine
I understand, but the pedestal makes the look. I like it...and I have decided it is worth spending your money to see it get used for this build.

Re: Project "Envy" The Green Machine
Thats what it's for it makes it possible to add another 2 rads and 6 pumps, the case itself holds 4 360 rads.
