Finally got my first custom loop under my belt. For those wondering about The temps because I ran it Parallel Cpu and Gpu stay under 50C while gaming. Going to start Ocing my Gpu again and will see where the tamps fall and will update this post. I have 1 more Darkside Uv strip coming. That 1 strip just isn't bright enough. Next step is Custom Cables.

Everything great except for GPU cables, they look Godawful

The tubes bend really easy. I got in my own way a couple of times trying to do some compound bends. They didn't look to good. And yes the cables look like ass. The Cable Mod set might get ordered sooner than later.

Update!! Temps look Great! 45C while gaming. On both the CPU and GPU. During Benchmarks the GPU only went to 48C. The strange  Thing is with the CPU. During the Physics part of 3DMark the CPU Spiked to 60C while the Gpu stayed at 48C. But During Regular gaming the CPU never goes over 48C. Thinking about adding this 140mm Hardware labs radiator between the CPU and GPU. It will also give me a reason to change the fittings over to Primochill Rsx while I am at it. But the Positive is that i finally broke 1500mhz on my Gpu.(1505Mhz).

Looks great.  A question though.   How do you have the return going into the top of the Res?   I have the same setup and it looks like it goes where there was no port.  Did you drill a new one?

Tell my tale to those who ask. Tell it truly; the ill deeds along with the good, and let me be judged accordingly.

I bought this top. I just wanted to have more options for running tubes.
