Thanks a lot. Yea I did wanna do something about the PSU at first but then once I put everything together I actually liked how it looked. There's other red accents that can still be seen from the motherboard so I thought that the PSU kinda blends in with that. Didn't really want all green so I think that the red accents give it a good appeal. Yea fingers crossed for BOTM :D:D

That looks absolutely sweet and I really like the straight piping on it. Good to see another Mini R2 out there :P

Yea I've never been a fan of green either but I just wanted to go for that green UV look. Dunno why, I guess I just wanted a change from my red theme that I've been rockn for the past 3 years. And it actually turned out even better than I imagined it. I am actually really surprised of the way the green coolant matches perfectly with the fans and also with the cable, could not have asked for a better match :D really happy with how it turned out

Thanks a lot. I gotta be honest, it was really daunting to do acrylic tube bending but after I had a few tries it ended up being easier that I thought, thanks to the monsoon bending kit haha :P. I was thinking it was gonna take me weeks to get all the measurements and bends I wanted but I managed to get it all done in about 6 hours on a Sunday afternoon :D

 

Yea the ARC Mini R2 is a fantastic case for the size, I remember just two years ago when you had to get a huge full tower to get this amount of watercooling in a case. I was waiting for months till this case came out in Australia. I love everything about it. However I'm still gonna probably go full tower on my next build haha :P
