Hey,

 

Does anyone have any ideas of where I can mount a tube resevoir in my Fractal Design Arc Midi R2?

Does it fit to the right of your motherboard? That's how I mount mine.

mount it outside the case through a hole you drill, and draw tubes in and out of the case to give it a Frankenstein look

Off topic but how tall is that ress ?, looking into a build in a 750D and would be very interested to know how long that is.

I got a Arc Midi R2 not a 750D.

Not really into modding and that stuff, so not really an option.

 

I think I will save some money and purchase the Corsair 750D.

I know you have an Arc Midi R2, but did you read what I wrote?

I really like the res, even though it's not the most practical, the looks are awesome.

Yeah they do. I got the black tinted version and it's awesome, I even have a light to use with the clear plug that comes with it. I also love the logo and got Bitspower fittings to go along with it.

I'll be updating my build log with some good pics later, along with my full loop done today or tomorrow :)

I had it on the left first but with my new GT780 it didn't fit and I moved it to the right. Oh and I have my pump suspended now which reduces the noise to almost completely silent. The case is a Corsair 750D and all of the water cooling parts are from EKWB. Top tip, add a drain port to either the side or the bottom, makes your life much easier when you have to drain your system.
