In real life it looks more black

Next job in the future is to get some black screws to replace those nasty ones.

Pump mounted in bottom hdd bay for the outlet to go round the back of the motherboard tray.

Cookeh · 28 Mar 2010 at 15:11

Looking good, nice cable routing!

surfsquid · 28 Mar 2010 at 15:14

looks like a little too much TIM, nice build though!

engstrom0304 · 28 Mar 2010 at 15:15

Tubing going on..

See the tube coming from behind the motherboard try from pump.

NAM_killer · 28 Mar 2010 at 15:16

Looking good so far

Make sure you bleed the pump as much as possible, if you don't (because of the angle) it will just churn up the air that is left inside it (no pumpy + lower life span + higher running noise)

Could have told me earlier!!! Was pumping air for about 10 seconds... Seems to be ok now though.

Final Pics up in 10 minutes.

Oh dear >.< bad times! Oh well 10 seconds won't make much of a difference! (Speaking from experience hahaha)

Looks as if you will have your final pics up before me then as I forgot to spray 4 screws for my rad grill when I sprayed it

Another 1 or 2 hours to go for drying time.

Really enjoying this build log and can't wait to see the end!

Finally complete!
