Default Re: Hallo.. Case moding Project..

ok... why 600-700watts? isen't that alittle much? I'm only making the computer cold.. I'm not freezing the hole thing down...

hmm.. I'm only a poor student.. maybe not poor.... but I don't go to the toilet with nothing and come back again with cash....

I was just thinking that if I could cool down the temp. in the main room.. where everthing is including my HDD's.. it would be good... you see.. the way I want the case to be build is to weld all the sides togather and some other things.. so it will probebly be very air tight.. if I don't make any holes in it...

andit would be nice if also could get the noise down.. personly I sleep right next to it.. and its on 24/7.. not that I can't sleep with it on at the moment.. just that other family members a floor down complains... but soon that won't probebly be any problem.. since I probebly have to move out of the town next school year..

soo.. at the moment.. I think we should try to stay under 400 Watts... so I don't have to live on a person's garbage for a year..

hmm.. going to make another case... design.. just in case... but I got to ask.. why do you think it will take 6-700 watts? I mean.. the water running slowly in side the container.. and should be quite cold..... and I'm stil just getting confuesd with that russia program.........

hmm.. I could always just put hugh opnings on the bottom of the case to get ALOT of air go inside.. and then just have the same on the top.. + HUGH Radiator on the top.. with... lets say 4 120mm fans.. if I use quality fans from papst.. and my own fan control.. (pot.. transistor.. temp. sensor.. a couple of resistors.. coparator.. LED.. and power...) just as easy to as making as a pelt controller... but with a high current transistor... or something like that... ^^ maybe make em go parallel... cough anyways.. the idea on this one.. was to make air go tru the hole case.. and just put a pelt on the cpu with a coldplate and water cooling... radiator on the top of the case with 4 120mm fans..

but in the end.. I will hopefully just have good cooling system.. and hopfully not one that is sucking to damn much power... gah.. I'm soo hungry.. can't think strigth.. going to get some food


EDIT: cough.. made a new little thing.. its not air tight at all.. and it will give my HDD's plenty of air.. and hopefully it won't worm yp the air before it comes to the Radiator...

ok.. lets see.. on the bottom we have the cold water.. and hot water.. with Pelt('s) in the middle.. the way I will do it is that I have a copper box with water in it.. and then I will have plexiglass around it again..and I will have holes for the peltier in the plexi.. I'm not really sure about how to get some presure on it.. but I'm working on it...

and then we go up to the HDD's... I will have plenty of holes infront of em.. where plenty of air will come in.. and then it will go out again tru one of the big fans up by the radiator.. or down by the PSU.. the way I see it the the air comes in.. and goes out again... now.. lets see.. is the radiator big enough you think? do I stil need like 600watts? come on people.. give me some hints..
