Many thanks to EK for giving me this chassis to work with,Crucial UK for providing the DDR4 kit and BeQuiet for the PSU.

Now for some fine weather for outdoor pics!
 
That's bloody Gorgeous. I think that piping looks amazing just the copper finish. Really giving me some ideas. Lovely stuff.
 
It bugs me that the power supply label is upside down, very nice build though man - good job!

Love it, fantastic build!

Very nice! My type of thing.

Loverly build in a great case. Well done sir!

Got my vote too!

Looking forward to you painting my next case ;) ;)

Thanks all! Im glad you like it.

Case painting is a service I offer,its not cheap tho,expect to pay around £150/200...

The competition may be over but the modding never stops...

Some final touches and the lighting,outdoor shots tomorrow!

Temps are good,Stock is 48c max on the CPU on OCCT and the GPU's dont go past 44c, not bad for a parallel full loop. Ambient is 24c

What is good is that the GPU temps dont have a knock on effect on the CPU other than equilibrium changes.
 
Did I not hear there is a competition attached to this from EK about painted cases though? :D

If you win........

I have finished a quick [email protected] OC for a rough idea of what this chip will be like and to get an idea of the cooling potential of the setup,I had some initial concerns about flow rate and the low rad space.
That said,I am getting half decent results,nothing HWBot but I wasnt expecting that due to the much reduced flow to the CPU block.
Stress testing was done via x264 initially,it gives a good baseline before proceeding with more...athletic ....testing.

Ambient: 20c
58c on the hottest core,averages of around 49c

20 passes of that and we moved on to OCCT,not Linpack or P95 as I dont need that kind of furnace testing.

Temps went up but not terribly tho,hitting 74c on the hottest core,66 being the average.

For a fully parallel setup and restricted rad space,this is pretty good! I can see another D5 or dual 10w DDC going in along with a EK XE 360 for good measure.
