Update:

 

I tested my temps and power consumption. I'm going to take pictures of the whole thing done later today :D See you then!

 

Power consumption (load): ~410w load peak (100% on GPU and CPU)

 

Power consumption (idle): ~150w 

 

Temps idle: ~25-27C on GPU and 28-40C on CPU

 

Temps load: 40-45C on GPU and 65-78C on CPU

 

I'm getting way better temps than I though I would.

personally i would of put a 120mm rad between the GPU and CPU to cool the coolant down so that the CPU doesn't get as hot. but then again you have applied 1.35V which is pretty high enough. How did you test your power consumption anyway?

I can't not have something to do!!! Since I used the light blue EK premix, I decided that some clear tubing would look AMAZING. So I got some.

 

See you when it gets here! :D

Update:

 

That was fast. I finished the tubing and am going to fill the loop right now, though once that's done the project is not over. I have some color scheme enhancing things on their way! 

 

The clear tubing runs look even better than the black ones were!

"Teaser" of the looks in the tubing, though it will be much lighter in color:

Update:

 

Leak testing probably overnight, I'm just waiting for my order from IceModz to come, but it will probably be a week or two. I'm excited though :D

 

Here's some pictures that took me 20mins to upload LOL

I'll be showing a lot of the different lighting I can do, I'm keeping it blue, but the pink actually looks really good.

Yeah! Definitely.

I just wiped down my side panel and put 100000000 micro scratches in it :( Looks like I'll replace it with glass.

Thanks. The lighting is horrible in there though.

lol I had almost all EK before, it was all the super cheap stuff though. I want an EK GPU block or an XSPC one.

Update:

I sold my RAM to get a nicer black/white color scheme that will go along with my IceModz order. I'm thinking I'll go with 16GB Corsair LP in black, I might change my coolant color too, but we'll see. Any RAM or coolant suggestions?

See you when everything's here :D

You should try the Crucial Ballistix Tactical Tracer memory modules. They're really cool and have LEDs on the top. I'm pretty sure they're the same Linus uses in his rig.
