Coolant is slightly absorbed by PETG but that doesn't mean it should leak through.

I'll just deal with it when I do the 1st round of maintenance.

Stunning build, really like the case.

Cheers bud, I went for a simple and clean with parallel lines look to try the preserve the design of the case.

To be fair, he seems to have put a lot of effort with the stealth reservoir (much like my build). I prefer clean straight bends but can't fault his effort, a fair few mods to the stock case too. I think the Portal theme is a bit polarising, love it or hate it. I like Portal a lot, but I feel he over did it with the Aperture decals, would look much better with no branding and a more neutral colour theme.

It's one of those that would stand out in a one-off competition but for looking at everyday, I much prefer yours or the Corsair build.

Having owned a Evolv mATX, I appreciate the trouble and hurdles you have gone through to fit all those parts into a small case. Maybe cos your spec sheet is not the latest and greatest might have hindered the votes but should not take away from your quality of craftsmanship as a case modder .

Regarding the coolant nah it didnt sink through it, it kinda stuck to the inside. Was really weird and took a lot of blitz to get it all clean again but its all clean now with no harm done. I am going to give white pastel a go for awhile and see how it lasts before maybe trying the grey again. Report back if you have any problems.

Will do, probably won't be soon as I don't have a reason to flush for now. Maybe when I get round to using the Alphacool chrome hard tubes.

Very nice! - I also like the look of the fans being hidden at the top so you only see the rad. Looks quite clean when you are used to seeing fans underneath.

Thanks, I'm quite pleased with how that part tuned out, obviously not going to have noctua beige visible . Was considering going for led fans visible as I ditched the top led strip, but decided on the clean look instead.

Very nice, I've a feeling mine's not going to be as tidy looking when I'm done

Of course you can m8, your specs are better than mine and it deserves the effort! I've been following your build closely on OcUK forum and the other one

That is least of my worries, cables are about an inch away.
