Hi all just thought id share my recent build on here, been a member for many years but never posted any builds or project logs, just spent many hours getting ideas of your great builds..
but finally after many months of hiding packages from the courier.... from the wife ! I have squeezed the following items into the lovely Parvum S2.0 Black/Green

Intel i7 4790k
MSI Z97M Gaming
Avexir 8gb 2133mhz Green light
MSI Radeon r9 290 Gaming Adition 4096mb

Crucial BX100 250gb SSD

Watercooling bits-

EK R9-290 Original CSQ block
EK DDC 3.2 140 res
Primochil 13/10 Acrylic UV green tube
Primochil Revolver Comp fittings
Mayhems UV green Premixed 1 ltr

Corsair AF 120mm x 4
Noiseblocker 1200rpm 80mm x 2
Aquaero 5lt fan controller
Uv cathode x 2 small ones
Windows 8.1

This has been a slooow build , getting parts in when funds available but im pleased with the outcome, was my first attempt at acrylic tube ,but as Im a plumber I thought hey how hard can it be !
Hats of to Parvum boys for a quality, well finished case, that as a novice at this sort of thing, was a dream to work with.
Havent attempted much in the way of OC yet but im just happy with a nice near silent ,low temp rig that will keep me gaming at least for a while to come )


Apologies for the Pic was from my phone so not the best.
Thanks for looking Q
 
Excellent build mate, you must be well pleased with that. Can't go wrong with black/green combo!

Some green braided cables would just finish that off you know... ;)
 
Thanks all , i think I only wasted a short length of the tubbing on a practise run ! , I had all the pipe formers fitted on a small sheet of ply , so was easy just to heat the pipe and lay it in the former quickly. Yes do think braided cables will be good finish , will look into that )
 
Nice build. Wish I had gone for the 30mm thick rads you used, instead of the EK PE 40mm I have. They fit, but are such a tight squeeze with the Corsair SP120 I use.
Since your build is practically the same as mine, I am interested in how you find the noise from the build? The fans seems to be the nosiest part of mine as they are PWM and I have them set to spin up when the heat goes up. The DDC pump is very quiet with the mat under it.
I have a i7 4790k and R9 290 as well. What are the temps like for yours?
 
I run the fans through aquaero 5lt ,just used fan splitters to control all 6,in pairs , that way I can throttle them right down to near silent and yes the ddc pump is very quiet which is great..temp wise ive not really stressed tessed for long as im not OCing but idle temps sit between 26-30 ,only game ive run on it so far is GTA5 which after couple hours it might reach mid 40's ,but still only having the fans around 75% ..have run Aida burn test for short time temps did rise to 55-60
