The white tubing was the wrong size, this is why the final build has clear.

Did you figure out the problem with the res?

 

Awesome looking build too mate :)

 

Sort of, i worked out that the hole in the Mod top doesnt line up perfect with the pump top so the O ring wasn't sealed right, i have got it pretty well sealed with electrical tape for the next few days until i have time to properly fix it up. Been running for a few hours with no leaks so it will hopefully hold up until i can fix it.

I don't like it when sleeved cables all have just one colour, other than that, love it

 

I don't have enough time to sleeve them myself so i just got corsairs ones.

I'm personally not a huge fan of the Switch 810 at all (too plasticy) but you made it work, and look really good. Awesome job!
