Did one a few weeks ago but some hardware has changed :)

Theme will be black and white, i'm thinking of white tubing with black compression fittings, black mobo and memory, black and white fans (i can paint these myself if a decent fan isn't available in white) and some white led's. Also white cable braiding.

My hardware is
i7 3770k
MSI Mpower Z77 1155
Titans in SLI
my case is the 750D.

this is the tube res i have in mind, unless anyone can spot a better one?

Also whats the difference between these 2 gpu blocks?

I think it's a 360 in the top and a 240 in the front and the bottom.

with those two gpu blocks, as they are facing down it doesn't matter what they look like tbh lol
 
The Corsair Fans have changeable colour rings so you could have a white ring on a black fan housing :)

I went for a similar theme in my White Corsair 600T, got a white braided cable pack for my PSU cables, white tubing etc. :)
 
I'm hoping to put an order in next week as I have a weekend off so it can have my full attention :)

I have 3 sp120 fans atm, but 2 are performance and 1 is quiet, so I think I'll change them all for scythe fans.

I wonder if it's cheaper to buy a black rad and paint it white, or pay the extra money for a white one?
 
I just switched all my corsair sp120 for scythes. And you can paint it white just remember if you paint the fins you reduce the amount of heat they can get rid of. I think there is special paint to reduce this but still an extra layer of insulation. Painting the housing is no problem
 
What else you need to know? :). Best way is you choose what you like the look of and we say if it works or not. That way you get your custom loop not just someone elses
 
This is what i have atm :)
