Background and Vision

Building computers has for a long time been in my interest and a hobby.
I've in the past had my PC watercooled and the aestetics have been pretty good, but I felt that it was time to take it all to the next level. To do this I had to rebuild the whole watercoolingsystem in a new, more unuiqe case.

What I want to come up with is a stylish and neat system with a colourscheme of red and black. This is not the most rare/original colourscheme, but I love it and I really want it.

One of my goals with the build is extremely low noise, so I've done pretty much everything I've could to make this happen. Expensive fans, antivibration, one amazing pump and more.
I picked the Parvum S2.0 for its unique, innovative design made in acrylic plastic. This would come to match perfectly with the rest of the components. The case is also pretty rare, It's not nearly as popular as the Corsair 800D or Carbide 540 AIR that I've owned before.

No cheap shortcuts, I want everything to be as professional as it could possibly be. If something takes twice as much time and costs twice as much but at the same time improves the overall look, then no doubt that's the route I'm taking. The reason to why I didn't make the sleeving myself is that I don't have access to all the tools needed for that process.

Thank you all for your attention and time, don't forget to give this gallery a rating above.

Det är fläktgaller Jag har alltid tyckt baksidan på de flesta fläktar ser förjävlig ut, så fläktgallret täcker upp det lite. Och att sätta fläktarna i push går inte då radiatorerna slår i varandra.

Tackar så mycket btw, glad att du gillar det mesta!
Du menar grafikkortets rear IO? Att det är snett?

Tackar dig också för den delen, det simpla och eleganta som du säger var lite av målet.

Ja det är alltså moderkortsplåten som inte är exakt 90 grader i förhållande till bakpanelen, that is the problem.

Hejsan! Tack så mycket!

Mina 4 st Corsair SP-120 Quiet går på max 7 volt, så de är väldigt tysta. Damm kan vara ett problem, men om du håller rent i rummet och rengör datorn emellanåt så ska det nog inte vara något större problem.
