Posted August 22, 2015 Nice loops . I know its not the best looking but here is mine: Finally finished (except for uv lights) quite happy for my 1st water build want to find a place to get some custom vynl art done to set it apart a little more, but at a later date, this cleaned me or if money for now amazing job I'd love to do a loop like that in my luxe one day *sigh How much did the loop cost? Pretty decent with the space you have!

Posted August 22, 2015 amazing job I'd love to do a loop like that in my luxe one day *sigh How much did the loop cost? thanks it was alot of work i put alot more money into this then i wanted to because i got extra tubing and fittings because i was not 100% sure how i was going to make my runs till after i got it all. so i have alot of extra parts (good thing to because im going to move it all into a bigger custom made desk or a case). xspc ax240 rad - 79.95 xspc ax360 rad - 99.95 xspc d5 photon 270 res/pump - 165.94 xspc screw ring - 17.99 ek supremace mx cpu water block 54.99 bitspower 90-degree rotary x7 - 118.65 bitspower petg tubing x12 - 41.86 bitspower 90 degree adapter - 9.50 bitspower multi link x7 60.65 ek dual bridge - 25.61 ek gtx980 block x2 - 250.98 ek gtx980 back plate x2 - 68.98 $995.05 usd not counting fans, fluid, extensions, adapters, ext. then more shipping then id like to try to find and add up since i order everything a little here and there. i used so little of the tubing and fittings i got so it was cover kill buy like $200. so i recommend doing more planing then i did so you dont end up with more parts then you really need. i now i have a small pile of fittings and tubing.

Posted August 23, 2015 This is my first attempt at a custom loop. There's still some more cable management to do and i'm not happy with the pipes in/out of the CPU block so when I regain some enthusiasm for this I'll be draining the loop and re-doing those pipes.

Posted August 23, 2015 You worry about that, if you don't "highlight" it i wouldn't notice it...

Posted September 1, 2015 Started on my newest build. It's close to being done. I've got to get some acrylic cut yet for the shroud under the motherboard tray and the water channels, but that'll get done soon enough. I'm inching my way toward it. = )The reservoirs are bitspower multi z 250sThe collection point for the reservoirs to go into the bitpower dual mod topOnce I get the acrylic water channels cut, glued together and leak tested, all the soft tubing goes away and will be replaced with hard lines.The EK X99 EVO Supremacy...outstanding block. Sitting atop a 5820k overclocked to 4.4ghz @ 1.285v using Thermal Grizzly pasteToughest bend I did on this build so far....the rest should be cake, it SHOULD all be straight lines to the top of the case.Love the bitspower mod topsThe whole rigThe EVGA 970FTWs with EK Nickel blocksTemp sensors. I have one for ambient temps, and one for loop temps before it goes to the radiator.I still have a lot of work to do, but.....I got it together enough to use it while I finish up the rest of the machine work.

Posted September 1, 2015 Made a few videos for my rig. After months and months of research, this is the outcome.

Posted September 1, 2015 Recently moved to an external pump and reservoir mount.

Posted September 1, 2015 Still working on mine....There will be acrylic in the top of the case with water channels in it. Once I get the machining done and leak tested, I'll get it in and replace the rest of the soft tubing with acrylic.
