After finally getting my system up, im now going to take it to the next level: codenamed project black

at the moment my system specs are:
i7 950
evga x58 ftw3 mobo
6 gb ram
3 x gtx470
3 x hp x22led
coolermaster 1250w psu
sniper black edition casing


i plan to give my rig a stealth black theme with yellow accents which would include:
modding the casing to accommodate the required components
replacing the exsisting sleevings with high density sleeves
adding condition monitoring equipments

and of-course watercooling the cpu, gpus and mobo partially. (i might as well add a sub-ambient water chilling unit but its feasibility is under review)

for the watercooling system i will be using some components i already have and the remaining i will get them in the coming days (i have actually purchased all the required items about 2 months back and was waiting for my bro to bring them back with him from US but unfortunately most of the stuff he shipped via fedex which should reach in a couple of days).

before i reveal anything else i would like start off with the unboxing of the cornerstone of my watercooling setup: The Phobya Xtreme Nova 1080 radiator!!!

this is one the biggest, baddest radiators available in the market for watercooling (the other being the watercool MO-RA pro 3 series which cost almost twice as much as this!).

this baby can hold 18 (yes that is 18!) 120mm fans and is absolutely huge! as tall and wide as a mid tower casing!

it is effectively 3 360mm radiators combined into one and the performance of this one radiator is almost same as 3 XSPC RX360 radiators!

i will be watercoooling the cpu, gpus and most probably the motherboard as well.
and will most probably have a dual loop setup cause the cpu block that i will be using (the xspc rasa) is fairly restrictive and will decrease flow rate of the coolant considerably if used in series with the gpu blocks.

    Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.
