White knight build update time

fantasticCG · 4 Dec 2013 at 22:18

The cooling to the CPU block will it effect temperatures?
Also for mounting the res tube next to the mobo do u think I'll get away using double sided tape
Heavy duty stuff, or should I drill the holes for it?

fantasticCG · 4 Dec 2013 at 22:49

Any idea what drill bit to use for the EK 250 holders?

fantasticCG · 7 Dec 2013 at 15:50

Everything has come out so i can attach the res to the case.

Also i noticed this

Not sure if it will be ok when the tubing will come down into the top of the T block,
or if it will cause too much pressure ?

Nope just my luck bought it months ago as well

Nope I'm afraid not going to have to choose another rad.
Been looking at the xspc rads.
You know what there like?

An update of the tube routing

Going to need a slight bend from the res to the bottom of the gpu block on the Acrylic !!!

I have fitted one of the new ek 480 PE Rads in the bottom, the top one has a bent thread again!!! second ek rad i've had that this has happened.
Not sure if i should send it back or go on with it.
The replacement would be here until jan

fantasticCG · 7 Jan 2014 at 10:31

It's turned out pretty well, was thinking I might redo it
What do people think?
Used a scalpel to cut the light sections out

fantasticCG · 16 Jan 2014 at 01:02

Cool thanks, I'm a lot better at it now.

Looking good - I see you have gone all out on the watercooling - nice!

Right back in action and finally on the home straight to finishing the build!
Mid plate arrived from Ricardo

And have my step drill piece which I'm a bit nervous about, hopefully no mistakes with the mid plate!

Test fitting the mid plate will need to mark out holes for these

fantasticCG · 15 Apr 2014 at 11:08

The 240PE arrived from ocuk

All the rads are now the PE series

fantasticCG · 18 Apr 2014 at 16:42

All the rads are now in

Mobo and gpu's back in.
Thoughts on the pump placements? not sure if I should place the right hand pump down below did think to cramped.
Mid plate placed in for now so I can get the measurements for drilling.
