Corsair Mod Winner: Aquasphere

All lit up

The carbon top has power and reset button on it and the Auqatube - I like minimalism. The red Aquatube allows for easy filling, it looks good too!

The carbon fibre shines through some mesh on the top; I thought the carbon fibre looked a little dark on its own, I much prefer it now I've added the mesh.



The heart of the system:




Another shot of the Cuplex Pro:




I need to buy some new sunglasses I think, the glow from 24 UV CCFL's is quite intense.




An Aquagratix GPU cooler keeps the graphics card cool.




The Fog of Fear - the first case that's supposed to smoke when running. The case design should stop the fog fluid from coming into contact with the system's components.

The back with the doors open:




The rocket launcher front! The circle of LED's in the middle of the front is the HDD activity meter I mentioned earlier:




It might be bragging but I was really impressed by how the case glows in the dark:




...and closed:




You can't hear anything when AquaSphere is running, it's absolutely silent. We mounted a 5V 30mm fan in the middle of the case to see if we could hear it with the rest of the system running and it was the loudest component in the case by far! The three 120mm fans at the rear of the case run at only 20% of their normal speed.




In fact the fans run so slowly the middle one appears to be stationary in the picture above, even in this long exposure night shot.
