So I wanted to clean up my tubing as it was all over the place and get a bigger res, without the stream crossing, also didn’t like the big curve between the radiators. I felt more confortable having 2 pumps on 3/5, hoping for a quiet build once the fans are tuned.

 

Without further ado;

 

Previous setup

 

Old mobo out

 

So many fittings (too many as it turned out

 

Glorious fans

 

Old mobo

 

New mobo

 

SSD mounting – must go for now

 

Old fans

 

Hopeful run after some modification

 

Out with the old

 

So much water cooling on the sink

 

And computer on the bench

 

Rads need some cleaning

 

Attempted marking

 

Bare metal case

 

Drilling – starting small, ended up 1 and ¼’

 

In with the new

 

Fits okay

 

Collatoral damage

 

Prepped new mobo

 

Fits nicely

 

Tubing begun

 

More progress

 

Tubing complete

 

Cable management needs improvement

 

Attempted to tidy, but complete

 

Panel back on

 

Lights on

Thanks All

Great job!

Nice build 

[RichardsD]

Tubing runs are extremely clean; but what impresses me more is the rear.  Really, really orderly considering you have 3 SSDs and all of that hardware inside.

 

Also.. the setup is ridiculously nice.

 

Great work!

[Jarand]

Thanks all

 

 

 

Great job!

PS Your build is really nice. Do you know hoow it looks in coloured lights? I'm considering putting EK pastel white fluid in my build, but I'm not sure if I could still 'change the colour of it'

Thanks. No, I removed the RGB lighting I had before I switched cases.

The nice thing about white though, is that you can change the colour scheme of your build by just changing the lighting

Nice build!

That's what I was hoping.

I think if I put white fluid in my system it could still look blue/red/green when I change the lighting (I have a remote from the icemodz kit I got)
