nice man, nerves of steel for doing it on sli 1080's lol

Nice work, not meaning any offence but slightly odd choice with the GPU routing instead of connecting the two in the middle you have the angled fittings stacked on top only to go through the floor and back to the other? Unless i'm misreading the photos obvs.

In theory theres no need to with two GPUs joined in parallel, do like the look of those Parvums with passthroughs though I have to say, looks great!

Very nice job there, especially with the dual loop aspect that looks awesome. Red and white looks great and those fans are stunning.

Now time to enjoy and put those 1080's to good use

it looks great but can i recommend some cable combs for that finishing touch

Looks really nice, would look even better if you tidy the gpu cables
