Got to see where this build is heading with so much water cooling power. Wish I could put that gear with my TH10 SR-2 build   .

So I have put the radiators in place.. The three radiators with each one four fans, fit inside just like it's was provided. But I have found one problem, so I have to make some minor adjustment.   The problem is very simple in fact, I have to put the fans a little bit above, but a little bit above mean that the radiator is not in contact with the floor. I have to make some pieces for put all that in the right level

Thank you. little update.. I don't have time for work on this project.. sorry. New fans controller. You have an idea now how I make the loops for watercooling this loops is just insane !!!     Motherboard only for test purpose the next step is a cut test with wet laminate carbon panels

Hi everybody.
I have some trouble with the next step on this build, I am looking for some help.
I need to make specific parts, so I search a person who has a milling machine.
This work is not complicated but need a lot of precision (max +/- 0.02mm)
If you are interested please send me a MP
thank you

Hi. So the last news is: We are working on the design of some parts made 100% CNC only for this mod ! Designed by me with Solidworks and built by an Home Made 4 axis CNC. The first prototype made in wood will be produced in the next days, the final parts will be made using POM-C (Acetal)

A little overkill having a 480mm radiator for each component. I can't imagine you'll get much if any temp difference between a 360 and a 480 dependent upon your ambient temps. Also I'm curious as to how well its going to cool if you have the same air passing through four radiators. Each pass through a radiator means that air temp is going to increase so by the time it hits that 4th radiator you're going to have warm air passing through. Am I mistaking or is this how you have it setup?
Either way, looking forward to seeing this build!

You are right, but I have only three 480 on the lower section, and these three radiators is for CG only.
The total power disipated in these three radiators should be balanced by the capacity of thermal convection.
The increase of air temperature will be low because the surface is realy important.
One of the 480 radiators (the fourth) is located on the top
