    jclappers reacted to Snef in [Build Log] Snef's Bloody Angel   
    Hi
    i made some test with Plasti-dip for Bloody Angel
    for sure the armor of the Maximus VI Formula will be white, but i don't want to paint it permanently, i will use plasti-dip
    sure its not the armor but give a great idea of the result and i like it , its pure white
    i tried on my Xonar Phoebus,

    Really like the result, with the custom backplate, it will be perfect
    at beginning, my plan was to add the original Asus chrome and red ROG logo sticker (you still see Asus) but they will be hidden

    same thing on Aquacomputer Poweradjust 5.25 bay, i like the results
    i did the same ting on my Aquaero 5 XT, but still in Sand of God
    now i tried to paint Angle Fittings and Crystal link C47 Fittings with regular paints
    i saw the price for 90 degree female -female angle fittings and $15 each not cheap (i know this hobby is not cheap)
    i tried to paint some
    in next pics, some are paint and some are Bitspower,



    Not to bad, these are only test, next time, i will screw the fittings to angle before painting
    i painted black angle and crystal link with 2 layer of primer and one layer of white gloss
    What do you think?

    So another buildlog comes to an end, this is my third log featured on LinusTech and hopefully it won't stop there.
    Began filling the loop yesterday when i noticed a small leak in the Reservoir, the same leak that occurred within my Mercury build, this time it was my fault as i had forgot to place the O-Ring around the fitting
     
    Out of all my builds I've created over the past few years this would have to be my best, aesthetically, you may not agree, but that's fine.
     
    Anyway here's the photo's, stay in touch as a new build is always around the corner

    If you're just gaming don't get an i7, an i5-3570k or i5-4670k will do fine, Asus generally makes the best motherboards, make sure you 2x4GB sticks of RAM, if you're unsure what CPU cooler to get just get a Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo, it's the golden standard bang for your buck cooler.

    If you're hardcore you'll fill the loop with sand.

    Topics I think you should cover (in no specific order):
     
    Tools
    Wire gauges
    Pin types
    Crimping connectors
    Soldering wires
    Soldering connectors
    Removing pins
    Sleeving types (paracord, MDPC, etc)
    Heatshink vs Heatshinkless
    PSU pin outs (how to read a PSU voltage diagram)
    Achieving good bends
    Measuring correct lenghts
    Resources (other guides, where to buy, etc)
    Extension vs custom cables
     
    There are probably others but this is off the top of my head.

    also 16AWG wire now unless someone gives me a good reason as to another size

    I can't recommend a parallel configuration in many situations these days with head pressure being so much more important than max rate but yeah if you want redundancy then dual d5s is a great way to go

    Parallel for pumps doesnt work,series is the only real method of doing it.
     

     
    If one pump stops in parallel then you lose 80% of the total pump power as there is a high bypass situation.

    Btw, have you thought about how you are going to drain the system?

    I think it would work fine. I'm not really sure if you need 2 res and 2 pumps, but if it's for aesthetics then i can see why. I'm a bit worried about the pump running dry, since the res and the pump is horizontally alligned, and the res is on its side. This wouldn't really be a problem if the res is positioned a bit higher than the pump. Hope it helps

    couldn't there be a risk of your pumps running dry if you ever get a little low on coolant?
