    You can use aurora 2 for longer term than previously but just make sure as before to not have something like a drain valve where particles can settle/hide and clog up over time. If you want just a regular solid red coolant the pastel lineup is for sure one of the best long term colored fluids.

    Thanks a lot, all of those links especially the second were helpful. I used a dremel when doing my engraving so the finish was only decent-rough in some parts. I'll look into frost vinyl though cuz that seems like a good alternative. I took in what you said about the clogging and thought of another solution. Well stole lol http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/311142-finished-2015-03-15-the-queen-2015-rebuild-lots-of-air-cooling/i'll just do the same for the front. 360mm rad, just run 3 sp120's and get a rad casing like you linked. Then I can natively run a 240mm rad up top, no need to mod. For 1080p gaming 2 780's won't be generating much heat. Its really only the first GPU and the CPU that generate the most heat so I'll be fine with 120mm² less.

    Ok first for the modding stuff I would recommend to get something like a mount or fabricating your own using some templates:

    Templaes among other Modding things:

    For proper engraving though you will probably need to get someone or a place that has a laser cutter to etch a piece of acrylic for you or to have frost vinyl cutouts made. And here is a good adapter to house your HDD's:

    As for your watercooling however check to make sure all your parts you are using is comptable with mayhem's aurora 2 fluid since it does have particles inside some watercooling components can get clogged with them so they are usually deemed incompatible, for a triple 240mm loop that would give you fairly good cooling for a CPU and dual GPU loop however try to go for say two 260mm if you can the longer the rad the better the cooling usually.

    I'm not gonna try and get away with it, so I'll just say it right now: As much as I would love a 970, I already have a 970. It just has an extra 7 on the front >w>. All jokes aside, though, I game at 1050p; my beloved Tahiti XT card tears through any game I throw at it at that resolution. I could not ask for a more awesome card than I already have, even though I would love to. I just don't need it. The Sandy Bridge-Tahiti combo I have is serving me very well indeed. If you give me the card, I will simply pick someone here to give it to, so don't give it to me.
    What you're doing is awesome, my friend. Give the 970 to someone who can use it properly, because I certainly can't.

    Good luck you guys!

    650ti is just for folding 24/7. Thought it would get better use then sitting in the dead dell next to my bed or in a drawer all the time. Not a bad overclocker either.

    I made a thread about cancer (http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/335284-cancer-test-results-from-may-19th/) a while back with a scare I had. This community helped me a lot to get through it. As a result I would like to say thank you. I plan on giving away 2 gpu's. Nvidia and AMD to be precise. Might have to hold off on the AMD to see if I should go for a 390x or for a 290x. The point of this thread is to see which brand I should giveaway. I will make a poll for Nvidia and update the thread in week. If you want to enter the giveaway you must have at least 50 posts on this forum. I will review posts to make sure they were done before the giveaway date. I plan on doing a poll for Nvidia for a week and then a week poll for the AMD gpu. I plan on going with the stock clock speeds for both for people who want to overclock or match if they already have the same gpu for SLI/Crossfire. Card would be a reference design or aftermarket depending on the poll. Here we go. Please comment and let me know if you a different choice from what I mentioned. The giveaway could be pushed back if we decide to go with a 390x. I will start with the Geforce GTX 970 brand poll first. I will also include a poll for AMD 290x or 390x. The poll will end on 06/15/15 at 10pm est. Follow this thread to see which one wins.
     
    I would like to thank these people in the community who helped me through my tough times. If I missed your name I'm sorry.
     
     
    I'm going to check on a back plate for this giveaway. I will e-mail EVGA about it.
