First Water Cooled Build

[Zhymon]

Meet "VENOM"! 

I bought this case years ago to attempt a liquid-cooled build, but didn't get around to it until now, and It was for sure a lot more intensive then I first realized. biggest MVP by far was the EK Loop Tester. I was able to find and solve a few leaks before even filling the loop, and I am glad I did as this is my first liquid-cooled build. Solid performance so far with CPU temps never going above 60c under a full synth load. I had a lot of fun putting this together. I also tried out Signal RGB to avoid using Corsairs software for RGB and I'm glad I did, really happy with it so far.

Setting Up...

 

 

Most difficult bend, GPU to CPU Block

This bend took the most time to get to look nice and not kink. Ended up connecting a few fittings to get the clean run I wanted. 

 

 

Final Shot 
Got the RGB tuned just how I wanted. 

PS: First post on the forums, long time viewer of LTT. Glad to be here!

Nice, simple and functional loop!

 

Small tip with soft tubing: leave some added flex to the tubes so it wont kink over time or when the coolant heats. Mainly for that little tighter cpu one.
