Project: The Upgrade

Nice work there only concern i would have had is that the X2 block is sitting right above your psu hate to think what would happen if one of the bards decided to leak.

well to be honest mate there are risks with all water setups, you could say that the res's may leak onto my dvdrw and hdd or the top rad could leak all over my motherboard, graphics AND PSU. but thats the risk you have to take i suppose.

im glad you all like it i'm quite happy with it i just want the side panel to arrive and get my UV cathode replaced so i can get those wired in and you can all see the finished product.

at the moment i have nothing securing the tubing to the barbs (apart from the rad barbs) but 7/16th Masterkleer is normally okay on the barbs i chose ** anyone with high flow barbs will agree that it takes SOME strength to get the tubing off the barbs and im sure that my loop/case wont be subject to anything that would make them come off **

True that there is a risk but best minimize all risks you can for example you could try and cover the opening with a bit of plastic or something. I have had water leak out my nb block onto the graphics card but was using feeser 1 and the card is mighty hot all it done was left a purple stain.

well i think covering it or any such measures would ruin the look, i know that i have done everything i can to ensure that there wont be any leaks.

Well mate it just takes time and having the perfect amount of connectors on my psu helped, all the wires are behind the motherboard tray, most people do this and i bet most people would hate to show you whats behind there cos its a massive mess.

but heres one of my preferred pics of the build:

Where the hell do you buy cable braiding from?

Google : "cable braid sleeving" and you'll find somewhere that supplies it.

you can get psu braiding kits from some online pc shops but they are of a lower quality in my opinion

Very nice work, though you're going to need the classic Audrey Hepburn picture to go with the black and white stylishness. ;)

PK!
