My eyes my eyes its so shiny. Looks like a nice build, will be nice to see how it turns out. Though what is it with a lot of POV cards being watercooled? Project skint, this and mine should arrive tomorrow.

What's a POV card?

OP, can I ask will this just be an out of the box and into the case build or will there be any modding involved???

Yes there will be a little modding :D this is my first bulid and i dont want to be going over my head on making a lot of different things but i will be making a cover for the 5.25" drive bays and a white acrylic midplate and some other bits and bobs along the way, we will see what happens but i only have a cheap old rotary tool so i will see how it fares when it comes to cutting steel with it.
 
Ye its a only a 22" but i should be getting a dell Ultrasharp and a corsair C300 around Christmas time we will see because i need to save up for a motorbike for next year.

Thermochills new TA rads, nice looking but there was a few bent pins on the 420 and and a little bit of the paint was flaking off.

The earlyest i can start this bulid is next weekend :( my power supply is being RMA'D and Im hoping to get a refund on it so i can buy an Enermax 1200 or 1050 because all of the cables on this corsair are very short and have to be streached across the front of the case :( so can anyone recommend me a 1kw + PSU which has good long cables for cable managment? :P
 
For some reason the images aren’t loading.

EDIT: nvm... now loading

Looking good! That fluid looks awesome, I’m wanting to use blue fluid for my first water-cooling system soon but just concerned about it because of all the story’s of coloured fluid clogging everything up and staining issue's.

But that cooling fluid does look sweet.
