those runs are a bit too long but nice leds

With the leds running two sets of the nzxt white leds and with the tube length prefer them to flex which why is I left them long but if I had time, maybe would have got extras fittings to change the tube length and maybe use thinner tubing

Made a few changes to the build

  • Case colour is white used spray paint, I have another 750d which will be air brushed so did temporary spray paint to see what it looked like on main case
  • Changed motherboard to MSI Z77 Big Bang M Power OC board 
  • Used slighlty thinner tubing 
  • Using XSPC 360 Crossflow Rad with two fans only, third will be added but due to dual resbay up top still need to change
  • Using XSPC EC6 UV Blue
  • Sharkoon UV lights
  • XSPC LCD watercooling montior 
  • Additional SSD added which is Crucial M500 240GB 
  • NZXT Sentry LXE fan controller
  • Dual monitors- First is LG27EA63 and second is Asus VE278H
