Parts Arrived (Build to commence Soon)

Glacius · 7 Jan 2014 at 19:04

Hey All,

Just wanted to say a big thanks to everyone one here who has helped me out regarding setting up a custom water cooling loop, about 2 weeks ago I didn't even think about or dare try to do a custom loop in my case but after asking lots of questions and sounding like a right noob I got my answers and now I am fairly confident in doing it in a couple of weeks times, I did go against a tiny bit of advice as I wanted some white radiators to go with my theme in the case but apart from that everything I have been told works together which is great.

For the build I have:

NZXT 810 Switch Side Panel (Bigger & Better Window than the 820)

Mayhems Premixed Green UV Fluid

XSPC Clear/UV Tubing

Cold Cathode UV Lighting

Corsair SP120 Fans

Bitfenix White Fan Controller

AMD FX9370 (The New CPU)

12 x Monsoon White Compression Fittings

EK Supremacy Elite AMD Full Nickel CPU Block

EK 290X Water Block Nickel & Acetal GPU Block

EK 290X GPU Back Plate

Full set of White Corsair Power Supply Cables

XSPC AX360 White Radiator

XSPC AX240 White Radiator

XSPC D5 Dual Bay Res/Pump

XSPC White Faceplate for Dual Bay Res/Pump

Hope I haven't forgotten anything and its all compatible but I am sure I will find out very soon fingers crossed I don't bodge this up.

I love monsoon they come in their own little box. No placky bag crap haha.

I hope you don't mind me asking, but could you take a picture of the white sleeved molex cables with the end that plugs into the power supply (the 6 pin end) as I'm having a bit of trouble with them and I suspect that Corsair / the oem has wired mine up wrong. :mad:

And good luck with the build

I can see this being good.

Ill grab a picture tonight for you Wiry, I must admit I looked at a few of them quickly and thought how they are going to fit not really sure if they are replacement cables or just extensions but guess I will find out soon.

Have to agree Midnight nice little individual boxes lol had to get them this way as that packs of 6 where sold out grrrr.

Thanks a lot. Mine are fine but as soon as I put the sleeved molex's in, the psu trips but strangely all the other sleeved cables are compatible. I have also noticed that the wires are in different places on the 6 pin end that plugs into the psu compared to the originals.

Hmm that is slightly worrying now :|

Ill definitely be checking them tonight.

I haven't heard anyone else having problems with them so I can only assume the oem / Corsair have packed mine wrongly and included cables that were meant for a different psu. Ah well.. Just wanted to see what they were 'meant' look like because mine clearly aren't working if the original molex cables are working.

You could contact Corsair and see what they have to say.
