Shinobi your build makes me so jealous I almost want to cry, is that the rad I sold you? I want to have a rig like that but with the white 600t :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

Your Rad mate, yes! ;)

I found out the hard way not all 360 rads would fit if you wanted your fittings to be at the back and not in the drive bays.

Still have to paint some of the fans but i made a mistake and started painting 2 camo Apaches. They don't come apart so it is so much hassle paining them, had i known this i would have never started :D.
I also think i might be swapping the D5 for PWM DDC and getting rid of the fan controller completely to use the on-board software that comes with the new Sabertooth.
Will probably end up putting an order form mdpc for some sleeving and do some magic with the cables. Well whatever you can see of them.:)

As i said still more work but is coming together.
 
I have an 18w ddc+ pump that I want to replace with a d5 ;) :p

btw I have a couple of those camo apaches, and they do come apart, you just have to push quite hard on the fan blades (there isn't anything holding them in iirc but check just incase!)
 
I cant see anything holding the fan mate but i did try pushing them blades out and i couldn't. Will try again now tho.
As far as the DDC, i do have one (in fact it's running right now on external loop) but the reason i am thinking about switching is because i think the ST software will allow me to configure it according to CPU temp, which will make it virtually silent unless i stress the cpu.
 
Yes mate, I custom painted everything from the waterblock to fittings and case. Used automotive car paint (about 6-8 coats) and clear coat on top. The blue one is actually not only UV reactive but it also is glow in the dark :D. Spent more on paint than i did on the case but that's fine.
The waterblock, top stripe and the front panel are in solid orange but the door locks, fan knob and feet of the case i opted for the "dirty", uneven orange look.

do you have links to more pics? im interested to see how the rest of the build came out :D
 
Will post more once it's all done but for now those are the only ones. I know i should no have posted them until i finished it but i just could not help myself :D

Will see if i can get a hold off my mate's DSLR for better detail
 
Here's my new water cooled set up. Case is a Cosmos II and I used an EK-KIT H3O 360 HFX kit but with a slimer radiator and a bay reservoir. I'm really please with the looks considering it was my first attempt!

I can't seem to get rid of all the wee bubbles and condensation from withing the res. I spent nearly 3 hours alternating the pump on and off an shaking the case. The loop seems fine, no bubbles in there at all. I'm going to add some blue Mayhems dye in the next few weeks I think. :)
