Right then guys how has every 1 watercooled their phantoms?

What size rads?

How many?

Locations?

Pics?

I'll start.

This was mine as I was ptting it together before finalisation. There are a few slight changes but mostly the same

Click my sig.

Got a 240mm and a 140mm rad in there, had to cut a hole in the floor to fit the 140mm in and had to drill new holes for the 240mm up top as I removed the massive fan and mounted it directly to the roof as opposed to on the daft hanger things NZXT give you.

Best thing I've done with it was pulling out the HDD cage.
Another option I considered was cutting the HDD cage in half and hanging it from the 5.25 cage. That way I could have put a double in the bottom but I didn't want to put my pump into a bay res.

Why not go with a gpu bridge? Or a linking system? But apart from that its looking sweet as a nut mate.

The GPU coolers i have don't extend out far enough to use the GPU bridge.
I'm using universal gpu coolers as OCUK and a couple of other sites didn't have any 570 block at a reasonable price whe i ordered.

You don't think the sound activated neon is too much?
 
Upgraded the sli 570's to a EVGA GTX 670 FTW as teh 570's were hitting VRAM issues.

Added a XSPC GTX 680 waterblock and EVGA GTX680 back plate onto the 670 as well.

standard 670 in on standard ftw cooling
