Very nice build mate, any chance you could list the parts used? Got the same case and looking to install water cooling.

Very nice build mate, any chance you could list the parts used? Got the same case and looking to install water cooling.
Thanks.
when i was planning mine i couldnt really find any examples of a lv 10 gt watercooled appart from the LCS one. the parts i used were.
XSPC RayStorm D5 EX240 WaterCooling Kit
XSPC RS120 120mm Radiator - Black [RS120] X 2
XSPC HighFlex Hose 7/16" ID, 5/8" OD, 15.9/11.1mm, 2m, Blue/UV Blue
EK-PSC Adapter Rotary 45° G1/4 Black Nickel ( i bought 6 because i was unsure of the angles and have some left )
and a pre watercooled GPU
everything fits like a dream. was thinking of using the fans supplied with the raystorm kit to go push/pull ( i still might if i can be bothered fitting them.

OK fellas here is my first ever water cooling effort using a 600t
Please be nice!!
Tezza, how did you secure the front rad in your case?
Where did you fit the pump?

He's probably fitted the fan using long screws, and the pump is probably a bay/res combo.
Im using a Phobya Xtreme 200 rad, this comes with all the fittings and screws to do what ive done on my rig, all you need is a 200mm fan location, no modification required

Lian li A70, nice, same case ^^
Looking great, very neat and sleek.
How wobbly is your hdd cage? I have a 240 Ive been thinking of front mounting for extra rad estate but I felt it wasnt too stable as a set and forget type config (moving case about etc).
The thin cables on your PSU look handy, would help with routing round the back (I cut cable holes into my tray, but theres not much gap at the back).

My humble little rig
Tezza, thanks very much for that info!
Just with regards to the pump/res combo you have, i see its the more pricey XSPC version, is that worth the extra money over this one below? What are the advantages of the £100+ one? (I see it has better lpm, but anything else?)

One last question - how are you draining your loop? I was thinking of putting in a drain valve but think it might ruin the nice clean look...

just a couple of photos of this 95% done built ( my room is a hot 26c ! & the pc was on prime 95 max temps for the cpu was 62c ), as i need a couple more cables to make some parts looks better & i need to route the cables a bit better too.
ie the power cable from the asus xonar dx card to the psu for one & a couple of other things just to make it look a bit better, well hope it looks ok so far.
& one day i will put the 570gtx gpu in its own loop too !
Mini update as I have now added 2 temp displays to my rig so the left one is the coolant temp & the right one is the case temp near the top front of the case, just above the fan control unit, my room was 25.5c at the time.
And i also re-filled the coolant too & moved the out pipe from the last hole in the res to the 3rd one & no more bubbles or gurgling noises now ! ( i got the case & water-cooling ready built for me but now i have tweaked it my self so i am a happy man to say it nice ).
plus i have fitted a samsung 30 - 256gb ssd drive but i am only using sata2 as my mobo is a asus p6t, it is still fast but not full speed sorry to say.
