Hello to all that have been following this project

I have made some quick progress with the case:

1. The water cooling system has been installed and checked for integrity. The system will cool both processors and the chipset.

2. The temperature monitoring system is complete and the setup will be measuring water temperatures entering and exiting both processors, the chipset, the radiator, and the pump. In addition, both CPU temperatures will be measured directly. Ambient and case temperatures will also captured.

3. The OS (WinXP Professional) has been installed and is running stably.

4. My first overclocking attempts have yielded a stable configuration at 150 MHZ/13 multiplier (1.95 MHZ~ 2400 rating).

5. The storage subsystem has not been impacted by the overclock. The LSI Logic Elite 1600 64 bit/66 mhz controller is driving 2 cheetah X15's in a raid 0 array without any apparent issues.

In the following pictures you can see the cooling system installation

Currently I am evaluating the system lighting. The next steps will be to install the components in the drive cage and conclude all testing and benchmarking.

I hope to have the project completed over Labor Day weekend.

Cheers!
