NZXT H440. My first custom watercooling.

Mini update: changed the coolers over to founders edition ones as the blower types work much better for SLI. Was getting some serious temps and noise out of the old ones.

Can anyone recommend me an SLI bridge that would fit this colour scheme and that gap?
Have a look on the Nvidia Europe site, they stock HB bridges that will fit the gap between your cards. You can always paint the HB bridge to match the build, I intend to do so when mine arrives. Alternatively get a second flexi bridge and run them side by side to get the same effect as the HB bridge, just won't look as good.
Thanks for that coldzero suggestion. Had not heard of them before.
Postage is a bit steep to the UK tho!

That's it. Take my wallet. Soo beautiful

Very nice.
Small update:
Dropping to 1x 1080 and will use the funds to WC the remaining card. Might even try rigid tubes. Extremely tempted by a Parvum case too.

New desk. Great to have my pc on it on show
Also dusted off my dslr and photoshop and attempted some art:

So I finally got round to modding the case to mount my res how I wanted it. Quite a fuss for someone as inept at DiY but eventually I got the result I wanted.
To do list:
Raise res mount slightly.
Flush system and replace pipes. Cutting them to better lengths (they are still from the old set up and far too long now.
Get SLI bridge.
Put HDDS into my new plex server
Just a quick iPhone snap:

Looks great man but yeah, that SLi bridge lol. How far apart are the cards dude?
3 Slots! I have some spare white acrylic left over from making the res mount. But no real means to cut it straight enough for going on show

I have a 3 way EVGA bridge you can have for free (I will have to mod it slightly though as it's orange inside atm...) but you will need to move your bottom GPU down one slot. Can you do that?
I have removed the middle card connector so it's 2 way now.

OK just did this very quickly as I'm really busy ATM. Here is the bridge.
It's been modified so the centre fingers are gone. I wanted to put a card in the middle and they were in the way, so I cut them off properly and safely and stuck some Dinoc over it.
The mod also was to make the acrylic clear thing orange.
So if left as it was it would light up orange. If you are handy with a dremel it would take you minutes to cut a new one. What I have done is put on some white sparkle wrap so it now looks like this.
So yeah man, as I said, yours if you want it

Quick snap:
Very happy, no noticable sound coming from it at all. After a few games the CPU peaked at mid 50s and GPU mid 40s. Both idle in low 20s

Much tidier in there man like it. Probably the sensible thing to do to go back to one GPU also. Games just suck with more than one these days.
Cheers mate, going to get my backdrops out and do some proper photos soon enough, Needs a good blow out tho and I have run out of air. Also need to take the mechanical drives out because they arent mounted properly and would be better suited in my server.
