obviously had to change colour from the yellow, and bought some more new fans to get some air over mobo

Thx guys, still need to sort them psu cables, and got to reroute m/b cpu cables, went to all the bother of routing top water tube behind the mobo tray and forgot to do the cables, very little room though with that rad.

yep and there great, top one does not leave much room though to route top cpu cables.

Liking my new MB blocks, never seen air bubbles whizzing round before with having black tubes, gfx block due this week so will will update pics when it arrives.
 
Thx guys :D could get the pipes cleaner but needed some way to get the gfx out just incase i go cf but gonna do my best to hold off till the 8970. Still looking to a caselabs build, but need to do lots of planning for that.

And yeah those bitfenix lights are bright.
 
It was built like this in october, i did like the yellow and black theme, but components forced a change

5 months later its like this and i'm sure in a few months it will be different again ;)

Not going for nothing too extreme! Tbh was looking at the corsair 540 cube case and then going with the black/yellow theme like before.
If my ppi refund comes in before the the 7/8/2013 then i dont think i can wait any longer and i'm sure you know what that means! :D
Idealy i'd like to wait for ivy-e but not too fussed don't want to get too wrapped up in benching, cost's way too much time and money.
Only gonna watercool cpu too keep costs down unless i get a good card :)
