Dark Base 900 Pro rev.2 distroplate or res-pump-combo

[MS Eierfeile]

Hello guys.

This is my system at the moment:

I ordered a MSI RTX 3080 Ventus X3.  It will approximately arrive at the end of January.

In the meantime I'm planning my first custom loop. I will go with soft tubing because it fits the aesthetic of my simple matte black build perfectly and I don't want to start with hard tubing. I already chose a CPU block, a GPU block, fittings as well as matte black soft tubing. I really would like to have a distroplate like Jayz2Cents used in his newest AMD Build:

But I don't know if there is one that fits in my Dark Base 900 rev2 case. Can you recommend something?

Thanks in advance for your help and happy holidays.

Not sure but you could make your own or have it made. You need to find a workshop that does metal cnc stuff and they can make the channel plate in the back if you have the precise specs. You just need to add a groove for a rubber seal, you can get those by the meter, and add an acrylic top plate, you can cut those yourself if you want to. If you have a 3d-printer that does resin you can make your own as proven by MajorHardware recently.

That's an EK FLT Res. No reason it wouldn't fit.
I use one as well.

It's meant to be universal.

WOW. That's a shitton of custom stuff. Sure thing would be great to do if you had the time, machines and/or connections. I on the other hand want to build my first custom loop and not even brother with hardline tubing. No to speak of custom building a distroplate. But thanks for the Input

Definitely looking good. Would have to check how to mount it in my Dark Base case, though. Seems like I'd have to get rid of my 5,25" cage after all.

I had the parts for a heatsink made by a company called Femec AG in Wetzikon a couple of years ago. The work was outstanding but not cheap if I remember correctly. However it was a gift so it was worth it.

They have 120, 240, and 360, so you may not have to. You can mount it anywhere you could mount the rad since you can attach it directly to a rad.

Yeah I see that. But I wanna mount it there:

And I'm not sure how to fit and mount it there. That's why I asked in the first place

Do those covers come off?

Maybe someone that ownes and/or knows the BeQuiet Dark Base 900 Pro rev.2 and it's distroplate-, and/or reservoir-mounting possibilities well can help. I am thankful for assumptions though but already passed those really
