Before adding the liquids, powered it up to confirm everything is properly installed, all wires are tightened, sounds are functioning,
Records the temperature reading (
Showing off my dual monitors setup. (19.9 inches LCD monitor + 26 inches LED TV)
And, there we go,
The partially submerged system, the Top covered with cardboard to prevent liquids from coming out.
Unfortunately (while submerging it), i totally forgot the power of the processor's fan and the graphic card's fan + the lightweight of the cardboard + Top not properly sealed = huge amount of liquids spilled out during and after the process.
I ended up covering the processor's fan with additional cardboard as a mini roof only for the fan.
Here's a video showing the start of the submerging process,
It's really fun doing it, try it out...hahaha...
Once it's finished, we had some short rest before clearing, cleaning my living room.
Oh, the blue 'Shark CPU Fan' on top is to hold down the Top cupboard, at the same time making the air flow much better.As for the next day, i woke up in the morning, and had it started from 'Sleep Mode' while hoping that it's still functioning. And this is the setup that i have been using for 1 whole year. As for the maximum temperature i have recorded for the whole year? 34 Degree Celsius.
And this is the only injuries i had during the whole process.
Project's finished in 3-4 weeks. Operated during free time. Total cost? MYR600-MYR897.30 including other small-small tools.
