This is aquarius, its a MSI board, with a core2duo overclocked to 3.4 ghz, it has 4 gigs of corsair XMS DDR2 ram, 80 barracuda HD, Nvidia Geforce 9800gt 1gig DDR3 graphics card.

It holds 10 gallons of mineral oil, and is mineral oil cooled to the processer using a thermaltake 850I waterkit. The oil is pumped out of the tank to the radiator on top, where its cooled and sent down to the processer, it the dumps it back into the tank..
World's First 3-D submerged computer.
This is the first edition before it morphed into a 10 gallon monster
Pdxlan 15 4th place winner


Then IT BECAME THIS!!!!

The 3-d is pretty intense on certain games, Starcraft 2, WOW, masseffect, its like a hole different game, it draws u in and everything just pops out of u.. its pretty awsome ... I wouldnt say its gonna make u frag better, but for a novalty or toy to play with, they are certainly worth it...

This case came a long way from the first time I saw it at PDXLAN when it was just the small tank. To when I saw it at NW LAN Fest when it went to a full fledged monster. I have to give it to LeatherFace for his creativity, and working on a project to perfect it as much as he can.

Thank you kind sir

congradulations on your win! I love the functionality of your mod. Pretty cool seeing a submerged computer!

I didnt get any pics of it up but a few weeks ago, I also added a 165 gig Intel SSD drive, that I won at pax for BYOC Harddrive shuffle board... so now the Hardrive is also completley submerged.. I removed the harddrive from the back and placed the SSD in the front window so u can view it submerged.
