Arctic Aurora Mark II

[Toasted Waffles]

Welcome Back!!!!

I finished the original Arctic Aurora build little over 5 months ago. Go see it here  > Click me!!!!!

 

So why Mark II? I just moved into my new place and had to transport the build over here. Before the move I figured out that I made some very bad design choices. It was insanely hard to drain the loop to move it and the way I put the motherboard in made it even harder to plug stuff in .  So Welcome to Mark II  - The better designed loop and better layout. Unfortunately I do not have enough money to upgrade to the 2080ti and the new ThreadRipper :(. 

 

 

Are you ready???  -------- LETS GOOOOOO!!!!!!

So I started to tear down the build and rebuild it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I cut holes for the wiring to be put under the desk. Then test fit to make sure the cables fit.
