Installed a water-cooled console, but the story begins with the motherboard.
Although it is now in the skylake era, it is believed that the use of haswell is still quite a lot. I still use 4790k. The upgrade of the new U is not big, and Haswell's board is also cheap. When the z97 board was released, many of the z87 boards dipped. I also took the opportunity to join Zhang’s flagship motherboard: ASRock Z87 OC Formula.
The width of the board is also 26.7cm (official data provided), compared to the standard ATX motherboard has increased by more than 2cm, the board looks more robust, like a small fat, but it also brings a lot of trouble.
Mainly a lot of chassis can not fit it, use a dedicated eatx chassis is also a little worthwhile, after all, the width is not to 30cm, I think it is a little fat to eat ATX motherboard only.
Now a lot of chassis manufacturers have introduced ATX-II structure of the chassis, in fact, is to reduce the traditional disk tray, at the expense of the number of 3.5-inch hard disk support, in exchange for the front of the chassis space, gains and losses, but this structure of this type A bit more fat ATX motherboard compatibility is indeed strong.
Start with a trial of Ma Titan, the price is not expensive.
Titan designed a relatively low-key simplicity, boxy square, if there is no side through, thought it was cabinets and the like furniture.
The width of the chassis is 230mm, which is almost the same as the width of the entire tower chassis. However, the height of the chassis itself is only 483mm, so the height-to-width ratio is low, and the chassis is like a small fat.
On the back of the chassis: the back trace space is about 30mm, and there is no big problem with the random backline. The advantages of the wide chassis are reflected.
Chassis framework mechanism:
Radiator is overclocked three Yellow Sea Extreme Edition S123E, height is 158mm, chassis support 175mm radiator, should not be a problem.
In order to make the color more harmonious, the riing yellow LED fan has changed 2 TT.
The platform fits into the chassis and the chubby fits into the fat .
The first column of holes was blocked without suspense. The second case was blocked by a small amount. It was better to pass the line ahead of time and then install the motherboard. On the contrary, it was a bit laborious. It required a little violence, and who made you fat.
All installed, boot success.

However, the story did not end, but the arduousness came again and couldn't resist trying to try out the suit and get some water-cooled kits ready for water.
My motherboard mos comes with a water-cooled connector, but it's a pagoda. I'm going to try a 3-point thin or 8/12 silicone tube. So I had to add the hose part in the water cooling because the silicone tube is more flexible. Better, so the last use of silicone tube.
Press the hose first, easier
Cold row to install the shelf to install the water tank

The host wants to add some magical runes and gimmick's black elements under a little MOD , similar to VOODOO's style.
The front of the chassis is also this style.
Light up, start slightly
