First watercooling setup

Really good to see someone taking onboard the constructive comments raised and getting a neater/more efficient loop.

Looks a lot more profesional but has lost a bit of the mad professior aesthetic :D
I guess case temps are down too with out all the tubing limiting airflow?
 
Hey Thanks for the comments guys i have to admit it looks a lot better,
there was a lot of tubing, but i`am getting there slowly.
The temps are better even with the fans turned down on the controller:)
I will probably give it a few months, change out the fluid and take out the 120 rad just out of curiosity.
A quick question i have the fans pulling at the moment do you think i would get better perfomance/temps with them pushing ?

They say the more turbalent air by pushing helps, but then it may be a wives tail!
I used to run a 120.2 and a 120.1 rad way back when I first started and I saw better performance once I removed the 120.1 to be honest.
Was running cpu and 2 cards SLI with full cover blocks. But I think the block were also very restrictive so the better temps were because the pump could move the coolant around properly, if you see what I mean.

I swear if you googled it someone has done some tests with fan directions. Infact I think someone here changed from a push/pull set up to push only and got better temps. But I cannot for the life of me remember where it was.
