Hello builders
Finished my mini project, or rather ITX project :)
I wanted something compact, and somehow accidentally the Shiny Snake L300 case caught my eye. Without thinking twice, I placed an order from China and started upgrading everything else. My budget is very limited, so not only the case will be Chinese, lmao. I used to have an i5 10600K, I wanted to switch to AM5. JGINYUE B650I Night Devil was literally the cheapest ITX motherboard for AM5 and according to reviews it was quite good. The RAM is also chinese (this is not funny anymore). Its Kingbank Sharp Blade RGB White (2x32GB 6400MHz). White, cheap, good frequency - sold! The CPU is the most default Ryzen 5 7600.
SSD remained from the previous PC and Corsair SF750 too.
The case has a volume of only 8.5 liters, so the cooling will be external, there is no way to squeeze a cooling radiator in there. At first I wanted to make one vertical stand in the style of LiquidHaus EXT. Then I changed my mind, why take up space on the table if you can hang the radiators to an invisible place under the table and get a clean look.
I thought about how the custom loop would look, counted the fittings, placed all the orders and while my parcels were on the way, I started repainting all the components. If anyone is interested, I used KUDO RAL9003 spray cans. The paint goes on well, the color is very close to perfect white, a little warmer than A4 sheet.
The components for the loop are partly new from China, partly used from local marketplace in Belarus. Fittings, adapters from Barrow, Bykski CR-RD480RC-TK60-V2 and Bykski CR-RD480RC-TN-V2 radiators (repainted), EKWB EK-XRES 140 Revo D5 PWM pump (repainted), IceMan Cooler ICE-CT3 CPU waterblock (repainted), Bykski N-RTX3090H-X-V2 GPU waterblock (repainted). I spent a long time choosing QDC fittings, because Barrow or Bykski are cutting the flow a lot and can leak a little. In the end, I found industrial hydraulic fittings FIRG Flat Face LSQ-FF-02PF-G1/4, which look 1 in 1 like expensive Koolance. They don't cut the flow and costs $35 for two pieces, very good (I also repainted them white). To attach the radiators to the table, I used 3D printed mount. Ingenious and simple.
The model is free, maybe someone will find it useful:

Otherwise, nothing interesting. The loop on the hoses is very simple, not like acrylic ones hah. The only thing is that I also made custom cables for the power supply with wires in white insulation without braiding. The first time I did this, do not judge my strictly :D
I apologize for the mistakes in english and if you have any questions, I will try to answer, thanks!
