    I might try putting some of my extra fans there to see if that improves airflow. If it does, I’ll get some Riings to place there, as well. I’m really happy with my temps, so I hadn’t given it much thought.

    Good job going with the SE rads, lol. I bought a CE for my GPU and there’s almost no clearance between the rad and power supply now. Luckily, I remembered that when I ordered the second rad for my CPU a few weeks ago. Also, don’t worry about your case looking empty. I have much smaller reservoirs and it looks quite full. Your build should look great.

    Those are for intake. The 560mm rads are on the inside of the case, so the air gets pulled in through the sides of the case and heads out through the top. I’m not sure which rear fans you’re talking about, though. There is space for two more fans in the very back, but I haven’t placed any there, yet. I’m guessing that’s what you’re referring to.

    Hello, This is pretty much what it looked like. It was mounted vertically.

    Ah, it’s fine. I have copper radiators. https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-coolstream-ce-560-quad And I’ll keep those fittings in mind for next year’s version. They look pretty cool.
  7. zubiecup99
    Yes, I am actually. However, I do not have UV lighting in my PC. Here’s a short video I posted on YouTube. I think it’s easier to see the what the colors actually look like. I feel like the green looks way brighter in pictures than it should. Just make sure you don’t watch it through a mobile browser since the colors will still look off and it won’t be in higher resolution. https://youtu.be/Pc9_jshYRLI

    Please let me know if you get it installed or if there’s anything else I can do to help. Also, thanks for the compliment on my PC! I appreciate it. It’s great to hear that someone digs it.

    Hello, Unfortunately, I didn’t take a picture of the back of my case with the AIO before I switched to two custom loops. However, I can tell you that it’s entirely possible without modding anything at all. All I did was mount the rad on the right side of the case (behind the CPU socket end of the motherboard, of course) and then I pulled the block and tubes through the top grommet. It will be tight, but it will reach, don’t worry. You can can see how tight the tubes are in this pic. There’s just enough room for RAM.

    Here’s how the cables come out from the back when the top is on.
  11. zubiecup99
    No, it’s pretty easy to open it, and it snaps back into place easily, as well. The only thing is that that I haven’t cable managed much there on top since the keyboard and mouse wires stretch from the I/O all the way to the back of the case.

    The Trident Z Royal RAM is really beautiful, in my opinion, but I can understand that some might find it gaudy, haha.

    And the motherboard pre and post block installation

    If anyone wants to see the delidded 7820X, here it is:

    Now that I’m satisfied with the PC, I'm going to start saving up for a monitor. I’m hoping they’ll announce a 144hz 32 inch 4K Gsync monitor with HDR sometime in the near future. Otherwise, I’ll just go with the PG27UQ. For now, I’m just using a Sony 4K HDR TV I bought here in Japan. It works, but I really miss having a responsive monitor with a fast refresh rate. I had to leave mine back in the States.
  16. zubiecup99
    Yeah, $77 is hard to believe. It’s certainly the heaviest case I’ve ever worked with, so that’d be a steal shipping wise. I hope that works out for you, though. You guys in Australia have it just as bad as the PC guys here in Japan from what I’ve heard. In regard to prices, I mean.
  17. zubiecup99
    Oh, nice. That’s cool to see!
  18. zubiecup99
    I think that will be a hell of an overclocker! I hope you’re planning on posting pics. I like your radiator pick. There aren’t many cases that can handle a beast like that, but if you own a case that supports it, why settle for anything less? Haha. By the way, are you planning on having a single or double loop? Also, I’m definitely not one to frown upon overkill parts, but is there a reason you’re going for a 1600w power supply?
  19. zubiecup99
    Wow, this is going to be cool. I guess I’m going to have to actually pay attention to these boards now.
  20. zubiecup99
    Haha, I know how you feel. The shipping on this case from the US was $300, but luckily I found one online company here that had it for a reasonable price. Most of them were going for $500-600 at first. It’s one hell of an awesome case to build in, but not $600 awesome. Also, I’m surprised you found this on Google images, that’s funny.
  21. zubiecup99
    Man, this is cool. I wish I knew how to do case mod stuff like this.
  22. zubiecup99
    Ah, I’ve seen that build before, but it’s just the fittings that are RGB, right? I considered those, but I’m very selective when it comes to fittings since some brands have been known to leak more than others. I’ve never used Thermaltake’s fittings, so if you give them a shot and find out they’re reliable, let me know. Maybe I’ll make the switch when redo everything next year. I figure I’ll try something new every time I upgrade my GPU, which I do once a year.
  23. zubiecup99
    That I can get behind. I think those colors would look great.
  24. zubiecup99
    Anyway, if anyone requests a color scheme for the RGB, I’ll give it a shot and post pics. Also, if someone would like a pic from a different angle, let me know.
  25. zubiecup99
    Nah, since I bought the first one before they had they RGB version, I just bought another non-RGB reservoir. Plus, living in Japan makes those really hard to come across. Actually, I ended up importing most of this stuff since parts are crazy expensive in Japan. And using the the same color in both loops might look cool, but I would like to have a two-color scheme on every part of the build.
