Just a teaser pic.. not going with stock cooling on the GPU's they're actually already switched to the waterblocks. More pics coming soon.



*****EDIT*****
No block leaks during out of case testing here's a picture before installing onto the board and into the case:

Quick test fit in the case. Little sloppy the wiring wont be like that and the tubing isn't how it will be when finished but you get the idea:

This is quite someting, I wonder if the CPU's are still creating a bottlenck for them 4-way GF100-375-A3 GPU's, I'm thinking there is alot more CPU power needed to feed these, but on the otherhand this would be nice for a render farm, Cuda would fly on this setup that's one thing for sure.

And what are your plans with this setup? Looks ionteresting as that goes.

OMG...I'm gone for a couple days and Wow!!!  These are some awesome SR-2 setups.  I'm stuck to my desk right now.

I have a z800, and while the case and layout is nice, the HP motherboard/BIOS combination has no provision for overclocking -- none in the BIOS, and BCLK adjustments in software cause hard lockups as commonly documented for most 5520 based chipset systems.  Also, if you want to do water cooling, there isn't room in the case.  The stock fans are fairly loud, even at the lowest speed setting (in the bios).  If I recall correctly, the system doesn't really have support in the BIOS for memory timings, XMP profiles, etc.
 
I put another machine together a couple years ago, around a DELL precision 490 case ($75 on ebay).  It's even smaller than the z800 case.  I had to cut out a piece of the case at the back (for the IO panel), and then changed the wiring coming out of the front power button panel to match a standard motherboard.  This is running a supermicro dual socket motherboard with 5400 series chips.  Again, limited overclocking options here (chips have the BSEL mod...).   The supermicro board was better than the DELL board, at least at that time.
