Starting the El Jefe Project

Here's the palce you can follow my quest for the new computer of mine. The project should be ready before christmas.

Why so early start, you might ask? Because I'm going to build a water cooling system into it and I'm trying to make the whole machine as silent as possible. Preferrably totally fanless system, but I doubt if that's possible. Still trying to do that and if it runs too hot, adding a couple of big fans. On top of that, I try to make everything I can by myself and only buy parts if I cannot manufacture them.

I'm not saying that I'm an expert in building computers or working metal so we will see what happens. There will be some unexpected twists and turns and most probably some very stupid mistakes.

I still hope that something useful comes out of this. We'll see....

To do list:
- get radiator
- get memory
- get pump
- make the tank
- sketch CPU block
- make CPU block
- sketch the parts assembly for the case
- get temp meters
- get tubing
- get materials for case
- assemble and test the test system
- make the case
- fit the parts in the case
- get the new parts
- assemble and test the new system
