will get it sorted fully and clean the OP up as a few parts have changed ;)
 
think i may have a go at braiding ant put a couple of yellow braids in the 24pin and the pci-e cables i think that would look quite good, and need to sell my old system before i purchase 2nd lightning or i may wait for a 8970 lightning :)

Confused as to why you'd need more than 1L of fluid to be honest if you're only doing the CPU, unless the tubes are going to the Alps and back?

Mine is on GPU + CPU with a 360 rad and takes less than 1L with a 250mm res.

Used 1.75 litres of fluid, none spilt, and used about 1.7m of tube, think the monsta's drank it all!!! :)
 
Cheers for the link!

Was looking here earlier, but never made the connection...

Really nice system, great how you've kept the black and yellow theme throughout.
 
Well done lol, how long did it take to lap the IHS? I might mirror polish mine lol. I really want to get a CPU loop going. I don't like the 60mm rads though I think they hide the sexiness of the motherboard heatsinks. Look's better in your chassis, seems to have lots of room up top.
 
Took bout 10 mins to lap and polish, rads are 80mm, changed waterblock led to stock blue one, which look better than the orange one.
Going to change top tube(long one) to go through the roof/side to show mobo better.
 
Wow 80mm xD, that would almost cover the cpu block in my chassis :D I think I will go for a smaller rad myself, look's better to my eyes. I do like how BIG your rad is though. Think I can get a 280mm up top in mine but will be using a 240mm most likely.
