You want to watercool two GTX 680s and two socket 2011 CPUs in a Define R3 with a enormous motherboard? Could you please include what you have done to the case to fit all your stuff?

 

Edit: at least i see why you've chosen that title.

not 2011, 1366

 

But right now I havent done annyting other than stripping down the case internally, will rebuild it to mount all the stuff. 

But its actually not as bad as I had imagend with space in the case. I feared it would be much more cramped that it is.

 

And cooling is not going to be an issue, there will be an 360 rad and an 240 rad, bought 80mm thick

Oh good lord, 1366.

 

Please update your OP stating 'EVGA Classified SR-2' and 'Intel Xeon X5670'. That might clear some confusion that I and maybe other might have.

 

I see that cooling won't be an issue, just getting it in will be. I'm subbed for more

I'm a lazy person, updated now, it were a few extra presses to make the name more presice as i wrote the op.

[Frufsa]

Update!

 

Just got the gpu waterblocks.

 

Need to get shorter screews to the backplate or make som spacers, to make the backplate and gpu block work together, but they will!

 

 

And one thing i noticed when taking the phantom cooler apart:

Thats some sort of oil, that explains why the card runns hot as hell!

What the heck are gainward thinking?

 

 

And now for some cleanup, why is it so f'ing hard to ceep everyting organized?

[Norman_the_Owl]

Wow, that's a nice looking backplate! I wish you luck on this build, i look forward to seeing it come together

[Frufsa]

Update!

 

Got the ram and psu!

 

Now i need to make it pink

But daimn thats some good looking ram!
