Meanwhile installed ICE-M.2 passive heatsink to the DIMM adapter.

Perfectly sits on the Dimm adapter and there's a sufficient gap between the 24pin so it doesn't gets heats up.

In this waiting period the expected batch of a fittings and adapter packages have arrived thanks to UPS. Well, moving forward!

I installed the connectors, adapters and extensions about 5-6 times in a different order. Never run out of thoughts though:). But, as I mentioned in my initial posting, I really needed the motivation to do both things at the same time (youtube video and build-log). I 've tried to spare the sufficient energy to accomplish this task and finalize the project within this week.

I would recommend you to wait for the youtube (timelapse) video. Because the video takes >15 minutes. I tried to put as much details as possible. Though you may get bored watching after 5 min. lol. Well, anyhow there's always someone up there spending time on watching youtube channels for such builds/projects?

In this loop I used generally monsoon's fittings, moonson's and barrow's adapters. I've been a bit disappointed on monsoon's PETG tube (easily gets scratched). Comparing to the Barrow the quality of the barrow is magnificent.

Here's some more details about the parts i used in this loop.

-Barrow 2x 45 ° Angle Adapter with 2 threads at both ends (2pcs)
-Barrow Drain valve, black & red (1pcs)

Up next is to assemble the Pump&Top. I used Bykski pump-top and Barrow D5 PWM pump by using the barrow's 120 mm pump holder and 2 x L brackets.

At first I was thinking of making 90 ° bends, for example, from monoblock to distro panel. I realized that there are hundreds of extension connectors / adapters reserved:). I know it would be more sensible to use glass tubes with no bends. But I decided to go this time with PETG.

Monsoon PETG Hardline Tube 1/2 x 5/8 Clear 4x pack (90cm).

Before assembling all, i just wanted to do bleeding test with Dr.Drop air-pump.

I used only a Barrow's PETG cutter, a pipe chamfering, and a sanding paper. No needed to use any deburring tool etc.

All connectors, adapters and extensions installed. Meanwhile the first tubes and 90 ° adapters are installed to the upper and bottom 360mm radiators&distropanel.

The rest of the tubes cutted and installed.

I have tried however do the cable management. But, there was no any equipment(s) to hide all the mess. Will tide up further. But, until that it looks like that.

Before

After. Not bad! Ain't it? But, still needs some work(s) to do...

Apologises for the long delay. The reason why it took so long to finish the project was the radiator on the top leaking. So i did order 2x Hardwarelabs Blackice Nemesis GTS 360S radiators and waited for over 10 days. One of them has arrived and the other was again delayed. I've decided to use a identical radiator as the one now at the bottom of the case. So i took my main pc apart and at the same time flushed etc and used one of the 360mm Rad from that on top of this case.

Anyways, i'll keep shortly. There's going to be a youtube-timelapse video ready to upload. Just a few video to edit. Will share the link here when it's ready to go.

I used in this build Primochill's VUE Red Razor coolant despite all rumors and negative feedbacks. Let's see what kind of reactions it'll give by the time.
