thomasjarvis52 · 13 Jul 2014 at 22:06

cheers

got carried away looking at builds and thinking fo my new one

davido_labido · 13 Jul 2014 at 22:09

I'd personally go for a d5 pump with which ever rez you like the looks of.

BattFink · 13 Jul 2014 at 22:13

+1 for the D5, as it's a 750D I'd be looking at a tube reservoir as I find that bay reservoirs mess with the styling of the case (e.g. doesn't sit level with the ODD covers)

As you're going for a gold theme have you seen this cpu block:

does this basket look better but in the 750d where can I hide the pump ?

BattFink · 13 Jul 2014 at 22:56

Just looking at some of the other 750D builds. I think i'd be looking at using at this pump/res combo:

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-411-EK & then mount it on top of a drive cage

DJ_Bucho · 14 Jul 2014 at 20:32

I must admit I've not seen many people use the pump you've selected, more often than not people choose either the one 'thomasjarvis52' has selected or the smaller one 'BattFink' has linked two. Personally I'd be tempted to go for either of those two, rather than the one you picked.

thomasjarvis52 · 14 Jul 2014 at 23:16

any ideas on where I could mount the pump I don't reallt want it on show if that makes sense could just mount it in side the hdd cage and make a cover would that work ?

DJ_Bucho · 15 Jul 2014 at 09:31

From what I've seen that case has a pretty big window mate, so hiding the pump will be extremely tricky, unless you make a shroud to hide it.

thomasjarvis52 · 15 Jul 2014 at 10:11

As I don't need the hdd cages I'm thinking of mounting it inside them with a cover plate so you won't see the pump itself
