EK CSQ Blue Switch :D ** Pics Inside **

i just installed the ek csq res.can hear the coolant flow fan rattle around,does this happen on yours...?,have a few bubbles on front res window,but they are slowly going
 
Nice build mate, its practically the exact set up i have been looking at(rad wise/case but white).
Is there any gap between top of mobo and fixed bay plate?? And do you have any fans in front of lower rad.

Dont get what you mean about top of motherboard and fixed bay plate ?

And yes

Got 2 x AF140's in front of rad then 2 x SP120's behind :D
 
Distance between underside of top rad to top edge of motherboard and the fixed plate in the drive bay, which i think is above your fan controller.
Is it the bitfenix recon? If so how is it?

Ah right rad only just fits due to the memory slots being at the very top of the board.

There is 3-5mm gap between the rad and the fixed plate so plenty of room for airflow.

The Recon is going back as it keeps stalling my fans and then ramping them up to the max every few minutes.

I have then daisy chained as i have 9 fans needed to (but the recon should handle 3 easily anyhow) so need to send it back and find another.

Here is my drain point on the bottom of my lowest rad :D Nice and easy for draining.

Got full build pics from start to finish, will get them uploaded over the next day or so.

was thinking does the forum have a rig of the month award ? if not maybe it should with a poll each month where the mods can decide on a winner lets say it doesnt allway have to be the most extreme or the best equipped but may even be something bizzarre
 
Have you tried switching the front fan configuration to have the SPs pushing into the rad and the AFs pulling into the case?

I would've though that would be better. Not that you'd notice temp-wise I guess.. May help force more air into the case though.

Well the AF140's push more air than the SP120's.

So my theory was to have the AF140's in the front pushing the air and the SP120's pulling it through the rad..

Seems to be moving lots and lots of air anyway and the dust filter on the front of the case keeps getting dirty quickly :) so i assume it is working.
