I beleive that is it for the spec list.

Time for the photos of the hardware.



Case











started putting the parts on the mother board tray for prefit









Start fitting thing in the case to get it working and useful before i bought the Water cooling stuff.





















Now a look at what i am upgradeing from.



put a heatsink i had laying around on there instead of the stock to push the cpu a little.









before i learned how to use exposer on my camera



this was my original layout for my water system.



got some blocks in







put the pump together

















had axidentally oreded the wrong size fitting and it would cost the same to pay to send back and replace as it would be to just buy a new set. so i have white fitting for future builds









while i was putting this together this is how my system was running for about two months. mind you litterally this is how it was running.











time to drill a fw holes to mount the rez and pump. right now i wish i would of changed the rez mounts to inside the round groments instead of the outside. but what can ya do.





above i was trying to decide my pump founting position

















this was my original plans for the build with the top of the rez. but it had to chage latter on and you will see but i will resolve the prob i had latter on.









was my original idea of lighting. but i decided against it in the end. i like the current one i chose better.



now to mount the GPU blocks



The gtx 670 FTW 4GB PCB





























above i was considering painting the sli bridge white to go with the fittings and the backplates of the gpus white but i decided against it.

now i started tubing the system. trying to make it look as clean as i can and now you see what i mean i wish i would of changed to mounting for the rez and i didnt want to run the inlet for the rez to the bottom of it cause i felt it wouldnt of looked as good. and would of made the runs look to long









i was so nerviouse of this. but i filled it and was leak testing  over night with a external psu. let it run consistantly over night.









the next morning nothing no leaks and all was good.



this is how i linked my pump up to the rez and the front rad



final photos. until i get off my lazzy but and finish my wireing but atm i an content on where it is.





this is the wires i have worked on and have not finished.







and my setup pics









well i hope you enjoyed and this was my first build log. I had a great time working on it. And hopefully i will be able to make anouther soon.

no it wont i am using tygon tubing. labortory grade tubeing. when i was putting the tubeing in the top rad i put it on then tried to remove it and it ended up breaking the head off one of the fan screws holding the top rad on. so i am not  worried about it poping off.
 
 
i have been thinking about that aswell. i love racing games. I am just trying to find a set of bedals and a wheel i wana put the money into.

I finished this build a few weeks ago and i decieded i would post a build log since i tooke tons of photos. well here you go. enjoy. /popcorn

Case











started putting the parts on the mother board tray for prefit









Start fitting thing in the case to get it working and useful before i bought the Water cooling stuff.





















Now a look at what i am upgradeing from.



put a heatsink i had laying around on there instead of the stock to push the cpu a little.









before i learned how to use exposer on my camera



this was my original layout for my water system.



got some blocks in







put the pump together

















had axidentally oreded the wrong size fitting and it would cost the same to pay to send back and replace as it would be to just buy a new set. so i have white fitting for future builds









while i was putting this together this is how my system was running for about two months. mind you litterally this is how it was running.











time to drill a fw holes to mount the rez and pump. right now i wish i would of changed the rez mounts to inside the round groments instead of the outside. but what can ya do.





above i was trying to decide my pump founting position

















this was my original plans for the build with the top of the rez. but it had to chage latter on and you will see but i will resolve the prob i had latter on.









was my original idea of lighting. but i decided against it in the end. i like the current one i chose better.



now to mount the GPU blocks



The gtx 670 FTW 4GB PCB





























above i was considering painting the sli bridge white to go with the fittings and the backplates of the gpus white but i decided against it.

now i started tubing the system. trying to make it look as clean as i can and now you see what i mean i wish i would of changed to mounting for the rez and i didnt want to run the inlet for the rez to the bottom of it cause i felt it wouldnt of looked as good. and would of made the runs look to long









i was so nerviouse of this. but i filled it and was leak testing  over night with a external psu. let it run consistantly over night.









the next morning nothing no leaks and all was good.



this is how i linked my pump up to the rez and the front rad



final photos. until i get off my lazzy but and finish my wireing but atm i an content on where it is.





this is the wires i have worked on and have not finished.







and my setup pics









well i hope you enjoyed and this was my first build log. I had a great time working on it. And hopefully i will be able to make anouther soon.
