Water(less) Cooling

Help this poor fish!!

Jokes aside, here is my second entry for the Cooler Master: FreeForm Playground contest (still on the sea theme haha). I got this idea by thinking back to when I was younger, I used to believe that water-cooling meant filling the entire PC with water and that all the components were waterproof. So I wanted to recreate that idea, but I was looking for something more original than an aquarium, since I've already seen several projects like that. I chose to make a fish trapped inside the PC case, calling for help because there’s no water in the PC, which doesn’t have a water-cooling system.

Are you ready to help this cute little fish get out, or buy a water-cooling system to save it?

I don’t have a multi-color printer, so I painted the figure. As for the signs, you just need to pause the print to change filament.

I used double-sided tape to stick the signs onto the PC window.

I took the photos inside a friend’s PC, which is backlit, and I think the result is even better!
