Sorry for the slow update,work has been manic.now down with the dreaded man flu (every man knows man flu)
Fittings,extensions,acrylic tubing have arrive from Alphacool.
Now everything is here,I can start the final assembly and get this build finished.

Here's a few pictures of the Alphacool goodness.

Wont be long now guys,let me shake this flu and full steam ahead.
If your at i60 next weekend and see me about,come and say hi.

The dreaded man flu has lifted its ugly head for a few hours,so this gave me chance to get the cpu loop finished.
All went yo plan,leak tested for 8 hours.no issues.

Will start the Gpu loop very soon,totally drained.no strength at all
This flu doesn't want to leave me........

Hi all.
My apologies for the lack of updates.ive been manic for the last month.
My business commitments and family life.
But great news yesterday,finally found the time to Collect the case panels of AIR480
I have had them hydro dipped in a brushed aluminium finish.
They have done a great job and very professional team.
I've attached some diamond mesh behind the corsair logo,This logo is also adding ventilation to the basement where the radiators are.
I've also installed the 3mm thick clear acrylic windows,I've done a video and will get it uploaded to my YouTube channel.
Enjoy......

Greetings all.......

Sorry for the lack of updates on this build.
I've moved house,moved business premises and have been busy decorating and contract work for my business.
Also I done a build for my other half and my daughter (Sofia).

Now the new workshop decks are clear,it was time to finish off AIR480 and get ready for the next project with Antec and EVGA.

I'll back track a little here,AIR480 had a clear acrylic lid on it.the 2 gtx1080 protruded through the lid.dont get me Wong it looked nice and neat and tidy.but I wasn't happy.........
So when MSI offered the 1080TI FE,I jumped at the chance of getting everything under 1 acrylic lid.
So I made a 3mm thick acrylic frame to sit on top of the chassis of AIR480,this gave me clearance for the FE 1080TI.
Now the new acrylic lid fitted perfectly,with 1.5 mm clearance above the Gpu blocks.Niiiiiiiiiiice.........

But here's a few pictures of the upgrades for AIR480

Thanks for looking,a bit of spit and polish and AIR480 will be ready for the photo shoot.
I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you to all of my sponsors

THANK YOU.

Can't wait to see this ! love the idea of using clear and pastel coolant too

indeed, going for Frost and Glass tubing so maybe this could have been the cheaper option pmsl

I went with the Titan blocks,I don't like the new TI blocks with the funny shaped block on top

 

[ADmodz]

Well AIR480 is complete.
I've taken a couple of cheeky shots before she goes into her crate for i61
Just the 2 orange fluids to add
I've got a full photo shoot session booked for after the show.
