My First PC Build Custom Water Loop QuadStellar

[boostang99]

Hey everyone,

I am new to the forums today after I just finished my first build. Decided to try something different for the pc so I chose the Gamer Storm Quadstellar. Overall was a little tricky to build in but was not a horrible experience. The case is very well manufactured and I have no complaints with quality. The biggest issues are cable management since the quadrants do run tight to the back of the mobo and fitting a 360mm radiator.

Here are the components used in the build:

Gamerstorm Quadstellar case (case does not breathe well so I leave glass panels off during gaming)

9 Thermaltake riing plus fans

Gigabyte Z390 Aorus master mobo

Corsair rgb vengeance 3000hz ram 32gb total

i9 9900k

Gigabyte rtx2080ti waterforce extreme wb

Thermaltake d5 pump

Thermaltake c360 radiator and xspc 240mm thin radiator

Thermaltake pacific cpu water block

Intel 660P m.2 2280 1TB SSD

WD 500GB HD (Left over part from old computer that had windows)

ThermalTake Toughpower iRGB 1050 Watt Modular PSU

Mayhems Clear UV Blue Coolant

Nanoxia UV LED Strips

Thermaltake Pacific fittings

2 Thermaltake TT Sync Controllers

 

Ran into a couple other snags along the way. Normally was going to run the thermaltake CL360 Radiator but it just would not fit. Swapped out for just the C360. Also first GPU the LED lights would not work so had to send back for a replacement. During this time I also changed the water tubing going to the GPU. Hope you enjoy the build! If you have any suggestions please let me know. I am a complete novice in all of this so advice is greatly appreciated.
