Keep the updates coming 
Not much to report bar COD:4 multiplayer.
I've ordered two of these ABS General puropse boxes measureing 85x56x21 and 150x80x46.
The smaller one will go at the back between the PSU and the radiator and hold the fan wiring, LED wiring and the light switching. The larger box will hold the box, with a 40mm fan in the side, aswell as a flow rate sensor etc. and moniter water cooling.
Should be here with 48Hrs so then work can continue.

I'm still waiting for my 'little' bits to arrive, so this is a slight progress report.
Here is what the case 'sort' of looks like at the moment. I really need to decided on my mobo soonish though as I need to work out the back I/O panel holes etc.
Otherwise, its colour scheme time. What do you prefer?
1. Just UV with Green Tubing and Coolant
2. UV with Blue LEDs and Green Tubing and coolant
3. UV with Green LED's, green tubing and coolant.
Thanks.

Some progess and some issues today:
Firstly, the Feser Fittings, allthough pretty, are HUGE. So big that they mean I've got to re-design the side panel (I had to anyway) and move the radiator 2mm down towards the back of the case.
The ABS boxes fit in exactly as I wanted them too, the read one, **snugly** between the Fans and the PSU, and infront of the PSU and the case. I've decided that having the DDC out on the bottom of the case would be a better idea. The larger ABS box will be used to hold an Aqua Computer Aquero and various other bits, prehaps a 2.5" HDD for me to put Vista on.
Anywho:
Its going to be tight with the tubing, so I'll be using a series of 90* angled Danger Den or Bits-Power G1/4" acrylic 'thingies' to solve the problems.
And with a normal ATX Motherboard in. I need to buy an mATX one for the case, and then make the appropriate with holes in the back and the mobo plate.

This is amazing, keep up the good work mate, credit to you.
I shouldn't do. I reality, I'll have an extra 5mm on either side of the pump as the PSU I'll be using is 12mm or so shorter. According to my CAD and drawings, a non-res-top XSPC top fits, as does an OCLabs one, and a Danger Den one
