My new MATX Custom Waterloop build

[BRiiTASH]

Im building my newest pc, downsizing from my last build which was an x99 platform build with 2x1080's in SLI in a Thermaltake Core X9.

Long story short I killed my i7 5960x by Overclocking it, probably too much voltage for too long. I made the decision to downsize from the CORE X9 as my pump didnt have enough pressure for the 3x480mm rads i had in my loop, so I've downsized to an Inwin 8.0.5.5 Cube MATX case which ironically cost me more to buy than the larger case.

Anyway I sold the dead 5960x and my Asus X99 E WS motherboard and downsized to a 5820k and Asrock X99M Fat1lity motherboard (which i got in a bundle for only £200), which cost me less than I sold my Asus X99 E WS motherboard for (£240).

Anyway for the custom waterloop I bought 2x Nemesis Black Ice 240mm rads for £35 each and 1x Nemesis Black Ice 360mm rad new.

Bought a used XSPC Ion reservoir as I needed something compact and solid which provided multiple mounting options.

Anyway my everything else from my old build is basically being reused; Pump, PSU, Hard Drives, SSDs, Soundcard and one of my GTX 1080's which I hadnt sold yet.

Might be a bit of a downgrade but its a cheap system to hold me over till Threadripper 2 and the new model mobo's and hopefully a new X399 MATX motherboard releases.

Heres my progress so far with what Ive managed to assemble in the case.

I'll be updating this post once I have made some progress, ideally when fiiting the piping.

Got my new loop installed. Everything looks great. Going to test the loop for leaks. Hopefully should be gaming on it by the end of the day.

Finally got the system completed and up and running. Heres some pics of the finished thing.
