The Water Cooling Gallery

Did you buy the res/pump combo? or separately? And do you know if can mount them like that even if buying them separately?

I bought combo.

Do realize, my res isn't mounted. It is sitting their, just held on by front io wires.

Im not sure about sepetate.

I would NOT recommend the res tho, the threads are plastic, strip easy

Yes, all the reviews for the rest say it. I got it despite that, and it's pretty, but I almost dethreaded it

Got ya, any recommendations? I'm looking for the same pump and a res that'll do the same thing as the Photon in terms of mounting. 150 mm is my sweet spot

I don't really know.

This is my only time water cooling, so I'm kinda a noob.

And now frozencpu is gone...

Here is mine...

Theres a couple of things I might have done differently had I known then what I know now. I think I could fit a thin radiator with two fans on the back side of the HDD cage if I had gone with a bay reservoir and I would have gotten better airflow through the case. I also wish I had gone with a different pump or put a non stock pump top on so I could have used 90* fittings to the res. Oh well it was my first build ever and I bit off alot so I am pretty proud of how it came out. Those other things might come in the form of an upgrade later.

Nice build! Can you link the UV cathodes you used?

My setup so far...

 

Some stuff I plan to do down the road, would be to put some leds behind the motherboard tray/ on the side panel pointing in wards to light up the center a bit more. Another thing would be to maybe ad a led strip under the case like car under glow, but that might be a bit much xD

Hello fellow water coolers. So this is my first ever custom loop. It looks a bit messy but hey. If you want to know what parts I used, check out my full "build log" here.

This is a work in progress. Still got a couple things to do with the white sleeved cables in order to better appearance and I'll be replacing the LED's with a different set. I'll be changing out that back Corsair AF140 as well for an AF140 with the white ring (not LED.) I think it will look much better with the white ringed AF140 compared to the Blue LED version since I already have blue led's in the case. Don't like the NZXT set that's currently installed because it takes up a PCIE slot and makes part of the wire visible and one LED visible. I'll probably go with a bitfenix strip or two, or even revert back to a good old fashioned cold cathode for better all around lighting.

 

I'll post another pic when I'm finally 100% done. Sorry about how the LED's glare on the Camera. In real life it's a lot more subtle as their set to the lowest settings. -_-
