heya guys sorry it has been a while ive been waiting on parts ... still am had to order new parts and also came across a couple of problems but here we go my next update and i also have a new camera so slightly better pictures
first off i would like to show u my sexy waterblocks i used XSPC for everything apart from the mosfet and pump top and i have to say their waterblocks are awsome they were perfect on my build as the plates were removable and easy to work with
i had a little play about with some vinyl and came up with this
looks so nice with the plates on
the twins
ok so once my radiators and that turned up i came into my first problem....once i fitted the 240mm rad on the side wall with the corsair af fans ...the 360 wouldnt fit in the bottom as the fans were 2 thick. so i took them off... fit the 240 back in and then it the 360 in... fine all fits lovely. think to myself ill worry about cooling the 240 later lets get the fans on the 360.
now with these fans on and the grill ... i cant get the 8 pin in the mobo for the cpu. i have ordered some thinner fans as i have now relised this is what XSPC did on their custom parvum build so i shall be following in their footsteps on that one
but it still doesnt help me with the 240 rad i mean look at the gap lol
ive been ripping my hair out on what to do all night and most of today trying to work out a way around it so any ideas welcome it was getting to the point i was like screw it they are going on the outside of the case
.
so anyway next i dry fitted the gpus...look sexy they really do but the wont sit perfect in the pcie slots i think this is due to the backplate on the lower gpu catching on the white clips for the ram so i may have to remove that plate or cut a section out of the back of it .. here are some shots of it in anyway
i removed the fans for now and just used the grills so i can get some nice pics. would be fine if i didnt need fans haha
sorry about the lighting ... was about 3 in the morning and i had a orange light above me haha
my custom roof window so u can see the gpu looking at you
