That's what LED's are for. Trying to match my case as close as I can with the IO plates.

I was just joking. Having led to light this up is going to awesome. Are you going to use led strips around the case or just led from the motherboard.

Even the m.2 is wtc. This is crazy haha. Benchmark it since you can have the most sustain performance without thermal throttling.

I mainly got it so I could use vision terminal. I might grab a second M.2 block and move my Evo to the last PCie slot.

 

Since last PCie slot and the M.2 slot run on the same channel.

I know, Just explaining. I have LED rigid lights in RGB & I have some UV if they will work on my tubing.

The last stage of radiator cleaning begins.

--------

I ran out of paint (Only have the cheap spray paint, which I refuse to use. Since it looks horrible on metal). I have to wait until cardinal paint arrives to finish up the IO slots.

Interested to know what are you using to flush to rad. So you are using uv reactive tubing. What colour.

Using Mayhems Blitz Kit. No on the UV tubing.

Having problems with the some of the paint I'm using. it keeps peeling off once you touch it (Left it dry for over 12 hours).

-----------

Replaced all the crappy plastic plugs with Metal low profile plugs from Bitspower.

[Revan654]

 

------------

Still waiting on aquaComputer products (My second M.2 waterblock & Vision products).

[uberfast]

This is coming together very nicely.  I can't wait to see the finished product! 

[Revan654]

 

Wonderful, The bracket snapped.

@Revan654 This entire thread is amazing and horrible at the same time. Amazing because this build log is so exciting. Horrible because every picture you post proves how much I can't afford this stuff  

[Revan654]

 

Guess It's time to start to connect everything.

-------------

Since when is Fed-Ex Express Slower then Ground?

Express: Monday
Ground: Friday

I should have went with Ground. The parts for my pump top should be here by Monday it seems.

-----------

30mm Screws - To Short
35mm Screws - Off by .5

Looks like I have some choices.

1. Cut .5 off of each screw (With a Screw cutter)
2. Buy something in between (If they make them)
3. Try to add some kind of layer of between the radiator, the fans & the mount.

Opinion: Should I cancel my Aqua-Computer Vision items & just use dual terminal for my M.2 drives(It's already been two months, Still no word when they will ship)? or Should I wait for Vision terminal & Table Top Unit?

I'm happy that the build is starting to look like a computer already  Can't wait to see it fully assembled

Well, I think thet if I would be in your situation I would cancel my order. After two months of waiting and not being able to finish my build I would be pretty much pissed off of how unprofessional their behavior is. They could at least give you an approximate date of when they will be able to deliver your order, or anything. That's what I would do.

id wait a bit more atleast, its nicer that you do what you originaly planed then something else that you come up with during the build IMO
