    Posted: 09 Dec 2007 at 1:12pm

I want to stick the wheels on the Ultra Case, but I want to know if I can tip the case sense there is liquid running through it.  Will tipping the case cause the liquid to spill out or anything?  will bad stuff happen if I do this?

In order for me to put the wheels on this beast of a case, I must tip the case back.

You're in Minnesota, right?  Just leave your system outside for three minutes, and you should be able to turn it upside down without anything moving...

Is it fine though?  I mean I dunno if there is anyplace where the liquid could spill out if I decided to tip sideways or upside down.

It's ok to tilt the machine with the liquid cooling system. Don't worry. Even if any does spill out (which it should not) it's a non conductive liquid. So you can clean it up without having to worry about it shorting out anything.

BigDog, you don't really believe the UPS Gorillas left your box with that little arrow pointing up all the way from Cali to Minni,...do you?

It's at least as safe as tipping over your water cooled car. It's a sealed system.
