    Tape has been acquired!

    Parts should be here tomorrow but alas the delivery guys are dumb and can't understand that my apartment building doesn't have a buzzer ...

      All the water parts and most everything else has been taken out of the case for a cleaning and to get ready for those new parts that'll be here tomorrow.

      And now we play the waiting game Mr. UPS man ...

          It's shaping up to a big bad build.
          Nice parts.

              Woohoo, I love it when a build comes together! And then gets torn down and rebuilt.

                Seems I do this more often than upgrading my components; in the process now of cutting apart my old Corsair 700D, just for a bit of change.

                  Well after a lot of work I've put it together and will leak test it tomorrow. The front 2 fans are going to be replaced with a 200mm fan so that'll look a lot better and the HDD cage will be on the floor of the case between the PSU and res. I took my 120mm rad out as well because I don't think i need a 240 + 120 for just the CPU.



                  Sorry about the crappy pic, the sun was out and my phone doesn't always take the best pictures.

                        Yeah I should have just ordered the green version of the fluid though ... not as dark green as I would have liked.

                          If too dark, you cannot see purl effect as much.

                              Good point Daz, I have my mac crunching away putting the video together of it being built ... should be cool

                              I love when it shuts off that effect you get but I can't be turning off my PC every 10 seconds to see it lol

                                That coolant looks like the same texture as my hand soap when the pump stops. Very cool looking! Holy crap, I just noticed you were Nova Scotia (I'm a displaced Cape Bretoner). This makes your build even better!
