Posted November 26, 2013 Hey guys! I should be ordering my watercooling components very soon! Tell me what you think! System Specs: i5-3570K - Will overclock when watercooled. Plan on getting to 4.6+ Ghz Radeon 7970 - Plan on overclocking from 925 Mhz to above 1 Ghz when watercooled. 8Gb Kingston HyperX Beast RAM ASUS Sabertooth Z77 400R - modded to accommodate a 360mm Rad. OCZ ZT 750W PSU Kingston HyperX 240GB SSD Boot Drive WD Black 2TB HDD I sleeved my cables myself, some of them need to be redone, though. Then my watercooling components: Swiftech Apogee HD CPU Block EK-FC 7970 GPU Block EK-RES 150mm Swiftech MCP655 Pump Alphacool NexXxoS UT 360mm Rad Primochill Tubing Corsair SP120's Current Build 11/19/14 Old Build This is my system as of the first post: The HDD and SSD are just cooling until I can make a shroud for them. Then here is a close up of my 24 Pin sleeved cables: The case was also modded to have a side window which can be seen above as well. Hope you enjoy! I realized I never updated this. Well here is my rig as of right now. Tohrchur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted November 28, 2013 Author I managed to figure out a solution for the SSD and HDD. I will be using another HDD cage from a different case (Corsair 350D) and I will secure it in my case...somewhere . I ordered the HDD cage today so hopefully that'll be here soon and I can finally get my HDD and SSD off the floor. Tohrchur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted December 5, 2013 Author Hello! ALL the watercooling components arrived! But I am waiting until Christmas to see them and install them. I got the radiator today though and I am modding my case to fully accomadate it because that would be a pain in the neck to do on Christmas. But here are the pictures of the rad, I will be modding my case this weekend. Tohrchur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted December 7, 2013 Author As the weekend came I modded my case! The radiator is installed and it looks great to me! I used the old hard drive cages I removed to make a bracket to hold the fans and radiator. It worked flawlessly. Just waiting for my new, smaller hard drive cage to come in the mail, should be here Monday. Tohrchur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted December 9, 2013 Author Got bored so I decided to take some pictures. New hard drive cage should be here tomorrow, hopefully the little amount of snow I got over here doesn't stop UPS. Can't wait to watercool all of this. Yes I know its dusty I'm taking everything out in 2 weeks anyways so I'm not going to waste my time dusting it out.

Posted December 14, 2013 Author Finally got the HDD cage! It is VERY tight in the case so I didnt end up having to use anything to secure it down. works create in my opinion. Looks much better then the HDD and SSD just sitting on the bottom of the case. The SSD would not fit in the tray that came with the cage because there wasnt enough clearance for the SATA power. So I put it on its tray that came with the SSD, Im going to paint it black soon. But for now, itll do. Sorry the pictures aren't good quality, I didn't have my camera so I had to use my phone Tohrchur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted November 10, 2014 So I realized I never updated this. This is my current setup. The tubes looks all over the place. try to connect then to the closet port. It will make them look cleaner.

Posted November 10, 2014 Author The tubes looks all over the place. try to connect then to the closet port. It will make them look cleaner. (never cross the tubes) Soon Im going to be ordering new fittings, like 90 degree fittings and other angled fittings. What I initially got made routing the tubes very difficult especially in a mid tower. Currently, if the tubes were really any different they would kink. Infact, the pump-in tubing has a slight bend in it that needs to be taken care of. Tohrchur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted November 20, 2014 Author Fixed one of my tubes. Eliminated a kink and made it look just a tad bit nicer. I plan to keep on fixing things slowly. Tohrchur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted November 20, 2014 Fixed one of my tubes. Eliminated a kink and made it look just a tad bit nicer. I plan to keep on fixing things slowly. Just plan it all out and change everything at once. Unless you enjoy draining the loop multiple times. Blarg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted November 20, 2014 Author Just plan it all out and change everything at once. Unless you enjoy draining the loop multiple times. I didnt mind draining it actually! It took all of 30 seconds. I dont know how or why but it all drained super easily Tohrchur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
