EUPHORIA (CM HAF X - Black&Blue)

crunzaty

Hey Techgeeks, today I will be showing you guys some pictures from my system!

 

Ok. So this is my first ever water-cooled system, I've thought about doing this for quite a while. I have to thank a friend called Paul that actually got me into water-cooling. I've read a bunch of forums including this one with other builds and ideas I could use in my build.

 

I've been interested in PCs since my brother helped me build my first ever desktop pc back in 2008, yes it’s not that long ago but I've learned a bunch about computers but I’m eager to learn more. I don’t know if any of you have noticed but I've been trying to help some fellow members off the forums with stuff that I know about or that I’m willing to learn about just to help other people.

Just so you guys know there will be NO custom work.

 

Most of the parts used in this build aren't really new, the motherboard is completely new.

 

Hardware:
CPU: Intel i7-2600K (lapped)
M/B: MSI Z77A-GD65
RAM: Kingston 4x4GB (16GB) 1600Mhz
GPU: EVGA GTX 780 ACX SuperClocked
CASE: Cooler Master HAF X

OS: Samsung 840 pro 120GB w/Windows 7
SSDs: OCZ Vertex 2 120GB x2
HDDs: 1,5TB Space (1x1TB 1x500GB)

 

Watercooling:
CPU: XSPC Raystorm
GPU: EK GTX TITAN/780 Acetal
RAD: XSPC RX360 Radiator
RES: XSPC Dual 5.25” Bay Reservoir
PUMP: Laing D5
TUBING: XSPC 7/16 ID, 5/8 OD High Flex Blue / UV Blue
FITTINGS: XSPC G1/4 to 1/2 Barb Fitting(s) w/45° & 90° Angled fittings

Thanks!

 

love the case <3<3<3

Haha, I like the case but the 360 rad on top is a bitch to get connected properly^^ (screwed in)

 

Dat liquid O.o

It's Sterile water + Glykol + biocide additive which gave me blue liquid, i'm also using UV lights on top and on the bottom ;)

 

Really nice! love it but, i don't really like that the tubes are so short. but yeah really awesome! 

What? I worked so hard to make the runs "short" and nice, it took some planning to get this 100% towards how i wanted it^^

 

There will be some more pictures coming In a bit! (I just need to clean up my dropbox folder) :)

I personally agree that 99% of the time short tubing runs look amazing and i think this it works well in this build.

 

The only thing i would change would be to put the tube from the graphics card in front of the power cables.

The GPU looks like it is flexing quite a bit or is it just the pictures?

Better lighting is my request. Too dark and too fuzzy.

Yeah, the earlier GTX 580 that you see in some of the pictures is really heavy and it doesn't "connect" properly so it has quite a bit of flex :/ No problem with the new 780 tho! :)

I will see what i can do :)

Yeah i know, the Phone is rooted and is using a camera mod that doesn't take in so much light so the camera takes really dark pictures.

There isn't really that much i can do right now, but i will barrow my dad's camera when i get the new case ;)
