This is my first water cooling build. I figured i would go all out if i was going to do it. Learned a ton during this build, that is for sure. 

Specs:
Asus Formula VII
Intel 4790K
Dominator Platinum 2400 16G
Place holder graphics cards--> 2x 660TI FTW
(waiting for Titan X release and its water block)
All EK waterblocks
2xD5 pumps with Bitspower Resevoirs with pump mods
Bitspower and Monsoon chain gun fittings
Nexxos UT60 480 Radiator- Push/Pull with Corsair Static pressure fans - CPU
Nexxos XT45 560 Radiator- Push/Pull with Noctua Static Pressure fans - GPU
EVGA 1000W Platinum power supply
Case Labs SMA8 with 4 Corsair Air pressure fans
All Hardline tubing, absolutely no flex tubes even in the basement.
1 125G SSD - OS
2x 250G SSDs in Raid 0 - Games
1x 1TB 7200 HD - Back up/random crap/music

I am wondering if I should use a different color coolant for the GPU loop. I was thinking of using Mayhems Pastel UV Red, possibly renaming the project Crimson Toxicity if i do. Any thoughts/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks Linus Tech Tips!  Without your youtube channel and many other personalities (like Jayz 2 cents, PCJunkie Mods) i would not have been inspired to become an enthusiast water cooler, even though im a beginner through you all I have learned enough to get me by.

Really?  You don't think the Titan X will run Run games like Star Citizen more efficiently than 2 980s?

 

Eventually i plan on putting a second Titan X when I get back to the states.

 

Nope. Two 980s is about 1100 USD... ONE titan X is going to be $1000 (or more)... and only slightly better performance.

The projects never end in my line of work.
