So I am confused.  Is Bitmain on board with this or do we have to lobby them to sell us what we need?
As Dogie said,it is unofficial on Bitmain now,but we could provide water-cooled S5 sale,price is $18 more expensive than official price of air-cooled S5.In addition,because we purchase boards from Bitmain,amounts couldn't be too small,if you want to purchase water-cooled S5,amouts of each order is 3 at least.You could send email to  [email protected]   for purchasing,and preparing time of arranging shipment is about 1 week.

But to fill out the case you show in the OP you would need the equivelent of 4x S5's correct?

Oops, forgot it only comes with a front fan, was mixing it up with the S3 in front of me.  So, will the water blocks fit with the screws that hold them in place on the S5?
Air-cooled S5 doesn't have screw holes to hold waterblocks.

You can take bottom of  S3 and drill   into 8 extra holes. Bottom  is not necessary for working the S3



Also, you have to drill 4 more holes



Thanks for posting this, it answers what I had in mind and want to do.

Will bitmain do some ??  Grin
I don't think so,but you could ask Dogie.

Good question, guess when we see on their site that you can order the boards by themselves with the accessories, we'll know for sure.

Bitmain should sell a watercooled BM1384. I pledge to buy for 3T/s if they sell one.

Unofficial for now, and no kits at this second. Have passed it on though so its a maybesoon TM Tongue

Screws arrived,purchase could be accepted http://shop.syscooling.com/goods.php?id=51

Remember,when you purchase hash board from Bitmain,you also need buy 2 controllers,screws,springs,cables(8cm*2,16cm*6).If you want or need to extend cables yourself,please tell us anyway,we could provide you cables and heat shrink tubing that you need for welding.

Our modified kit includes:case,4 waterblocks,2 fans,2 fan covers,screws,heat conducting paste,2 distributors,cables and heat shrink tubing(if needed).

back in the thread it said you need 6 fans instead of 3 with the small radiator

So one needs both things below:
http://shop.syscooling.com/goods.php?id=51

and

http://shop.syscooling.com/goods.php?id=45

in order to get the whole system going.

You need two of the radiator kits, or one of the large kit.  But, the case doesn't seem to list the needed extra length cables yet.

That's right, the kit will need 3 extra fans per radiator.  Also, there was mention about screws and springs also.  I wonder if you buy the boards, maybe the cables, screws and springs are included from Bitmaiin?
Exactly,all you mentioned need you purchase from Bitmain,and we will also provide some other type screws for modify requirement.

How much are the S5 hashing boards and how do you go about ordering?
You could ask Bitmain about boards,and we think it is cheaper that you assemble a water-cooled S5 rather than air-cooled S5.

You could purchase appropriate cable from Bitmain,8cm*2,and 16cm*6.Don't forget purchase 3 more fans for each radiator. Wink

If I just removed the rear fan

You will still need a fan with water cooling. A quieter one hopefully.
