first water build (pics :) )

:( sorry bud hope you get it sorted soon

Yeah, no worries.

We live and learn I suppose. Probably the last time I do watercooling :p

Or at least with a cheap "All-In-One" solution anyway. Will definitely be doing things separately next time.

Few quick questions, the raisers you've made for your Rad... are they secured at all? I'd be worried about vibrations personally.

And your velcro attached pump looks like it could drop off at any second :p
 
am stripping my pc down to do some rad grills in the top and bottom with some vent windows on my side panels soon so i will not need the rad brackets, but no theres no vibrations from them as i have foam between them whichs stops it as for the pumps well as the heat grew in the case the velcro did start to come away lol so when i have emptyed my case the pump is getting attached properly but am glag i went custom instead of a kit not just for parts but for the joy of nowing a built my own :D
 
Looking good Steveo.
Gives inspiration to those that may be wary of attempting this kind of thing.
Grats on the build :D
