Switch 810 first time water build (Project Penguin)

Thanks :D I'm glad I went with white tubing rather than white fluid after the first disaster. So much easier ha ha. I did strip it all down and rebuild into an 800D but just couldn't get on with it for some reason. I am thinking about maybe a 900D in the future maybe so I can fill it with radiators.

Good job, really liking the white case, it's interesting what you learn along the way :)

I'll admit I'm no expert in watercooling but it seems odd to me you have the loop going from the Res > Pump > Radiator top > CPU / GPU > Radiator baydrive > back to Res.

Wouldn't it help temps to have it Res > Pump > CPU > Radiator top > GPU > Radiator baydrive > back to Res. Why would you need it going to the radiator first from the pump? This would lead to increased GPUs temps as it travels down from the CPU. Unless your overall temps are fine and I should be asleep already! My own CPU only loop is Res (XSPC X2O 200) > Pump (EK DCP) > CPU (EK Nickel Plexi) > Rad (Black ICE SR-1 360) > back to Res.

The loop normally doesn't make too much difference, the liquid travels fast enough around to dissipate at a good rate. My loop goes Res > Pump > 360mm Rad > 240mm Rad > Motherboard Mosfet > CPU > GPU > GPU > Res.

@OP, Build looks stunning, the pink coolant looked good as well :p.
Very nicely done, white cases look so sleek!
