Don't think it works with the green or rgb, but the white looks awesome!After about 50 hours of work, this is pretty much done. Gotta pull it apart again to tweak some stuff and also waiting on 180 degree pcie power adapters to hide the GPU cables.

Try it with a warm white or a yellowey white... Steampunky asthetic (think old filament bulbs)
Love it though.

Here you go. Unfortunately you can't get a copper colour from LEDs
First one is best to me, yellow/white. Love it!
Copper in RGb is hex #b87333 - approx 72.2% red, 45.1% green and 20% blue
Nice one, thanks dude
guess i'll add my build history here.. even though they are constantly tinkered with so there is technically no finish product per se
2007 Globalwin Intel Rig (First build which i didn't get to finish) Dual Loop
2009 Intel Mountainmods Rig (Triple loop for fun and cooling everything from HDD to RAM to PSU. CPU TEC cooled)
2010 Lian Li G70 Aquacomputer Spaghetti Rig
2013-2020 Corsair 750D Rig Pre overhaul variations (first time hard line build)
2021 Jonsbo UMX4 Rig Overhaul
2021 Lian Li 011D Mini AMD Rig

Amazing, that's the history of watercooling in pictures.

Just finished putting this 420mm external radiator build together.
All EKWB. x2 360mm radiators internal.
Bykski flow meter.
Happy that the build still looks pretty good inside the case.
There is a LOT of tubing inside now.
Leak test completed. Seems to be alright so far.
Just need to do a few finishing touches.
Will see if the work gives any better temps!
I know this thread is for pics only and no comments, but a quick one which is boggling my mind.. as i can't tell how you have your loop set up.. are you running your GPU in reverse? not that it shouldn't matter much

Yeah, I know we aren't meant to talk, but we need to appreciate these builds!
Yes I am running the loop kind of backwards
The loop was originally a bit more traditional with the intake and outtake reversed.
I just set it up like this as it seemed to be the easiest way to add the new tubing and connect the flow meter.
As you said, the water flow will still have a similar challenge, flowing around the loop, whether it is "clockwise or anticlockwise".
In my build it is not really a "loop" anymore and not clockwise or anticlockwise now. It's basically just flowing all over the place.
I'm also cooling the PCH just behind the GPU which was a challenge, even with soft tubing!
The D5 should be able to handle it though. I do think I am at the limit of what 1 pump/res should really be handling!
The flow seems decent and I am hoping to update with finished stats/pics soon!
Never done anything like this before. I just got bored. It is true what they say, water cooling is a slippery slope to addiction (pun intended.)

These are amazing builds.
You can see the evolution!
The new ones. So clean, I love it.
I didn't realise I was talking to Mr History of Water Cooling.
That's true.. there's definately more people older than me when watercooling.. like the people who used to use chillers/vapochills to cool their cpu and i was super jealous at the time, but in my defence, i was in my early teens and didn't have sub £400 to dish out on one.
I'll include my brothers modified Coolermaster ATC S4000 SX-1 Dual Loop to the mix. He's the one who got me into computers in general. This one was built around 2003 i think

Some of us have been taking bad pictures since page 1 I'll have you know
Bad picture? Bad ass!
