Done with my build! (for now)

reniat

This was my first venture into custom water cooling. I do plan to add the gpu to the loop (as right now it's pretty overkill for the just the cpu), as well as EVENTUALLY switching to hardline, but this was enough effort that I just kinda want to play some games on it for a while lol. Plus, I have to re-delid my processor, so I'm not really going to make the switch to hardline until I know I don't have to crack that back open....

I didn't do a very good job initially. My temperatures are awful. I think i put too thin of a layer of coolaboratory ultra under the IHS. I have the exact same performance with this MASSIVELY overkill loop as I did with my tiny 240mm H105 cooler, which to me indicates an issue with heat transfer.
