My water cooling set up. Few questions/advice?

[Glowballs]

Anyone know how often a water system like this need a good flush? been 9 months

some say 6 months others say a year

if the fluid is looking fine then I would stick with it.

kudos on a good job making it neater btw.

Much neater

Much, much tidier I've been a cable tidying nut for many years now, it's amazing how much difference neat cables can make to the airflow in a case. Although I still do the stupid thing of cable tying everything up beautifully before actually testing it, only to find out somethings not right..... I'll never learn....

Have you considered putting that rear 120mm fan in place? if you have that pushing air into the case that will help the general motherboard cooling a fair bit?

Also, have you got round to overclocking it? I think a i7 950 on a Rampage Extreme motherboard would overclock very easily? You'd probably get 4 Ghz without a voltage increase?

E-I

Sorry for extremely late reply

Still have yet to overclock it, haven't needed to tbh. I can't really afford to replace anything if I bugger it up haha
