A little bit of an update at last!

Recieved a tasty package on Monday containing most of the parts remaining for my build, just the water cooling and a few fiddly tidying up jobs left to go now

So heres the main hardware:


A stack of drives, 2x 250gb, 1x 1tb and a dvd drive:


CAS 7 Dominator DDR3:



Also recieved my case back from the guys at watercooling uk last week, looks stunning in person, pics dont do it justice:





Motherboard tray:


Also finished sleeving the 24pin atx cable on my psu and de-stickering it at the weekend:

Bringing everything together:

Got some more photos of a few of the other changes I made to the case, namely the LED mod on the front panel, and with the case lit up from the fans, but they are on the laptop at the moment so shall upload them soon.

Just waiting on a few bits for the watercooling and all will be finished, also got to order some clear and some black plastic to replace the mesh side panels, and decide weather to attempt to fit a slimline dvd drive from a laptop or just open the side up and plug one in once watercooling goes in, as the 360 rad will take up all of the front drive bays.

Final water loop:

Watercool HK 3.0 LC
Black Ice SR1 360 and 240
EK 4870x2 nickel plated vga block
Bitspower Mosfet, NB/SB blocks
Laing DDC ultra with EK acetal top
EK multi option 250 reservoir
Plenty of bitspower shining silver fittings (1/2" ID, 3/4" OD) and xiggy fans, and a few uv's for good luck

Im currently undecided on tubing and fluid, so am going to order clear, black and uv orange tubing, as well as black and uv orange coils, fluid could end up being pure water from work with a little antifreeze and biocide, or could be a feser or primochill uv orange coolant, any suggestions would be welcome!

Could take a while to get it all in though, I'm feeling like getting a new car...

Looking good mate

[Ya Mother]

Some nice kit you got there sam....looking forward to the watercooling bit.

[Sam]

Little update, still no water cooling installed, but I have now got an SSD raid array installed. Other things in my life have taken over the money I was going to spend on the water loop, such as buying a new car

[Ya Mother]

Did you ever finish this sam?
