Nice!

few more updates. drilled mounting holes for res on top chasi and res. added soft grommet spacers to kill any potential vibration. installed dark side LEDS in res. and started cutting tube. should all line up good i hope. was a lot of measuring and if the top and bottom line up i'll be very surprised with myself

That looks amazing

bad ass rig

[Bartacus]

Awesome!!! Can't wait to see this thing filled up and lit up!

You'll have to explains the fluid routing too then, looks sweet though nice mods on the routing.

Oh it's entailed! So the left resivoir and pump / from pump down to plate from plate to mosfet block to Cpu to ran block to plates passthru down below into pedestal then back up to passthru closest to front rads back up to res on left.

Right res and pump / from pump down into plate over to underside fitting to right front rad then out rad to other rad thru rad out back up to bottom of plate then over then I have two 90s under bridging the loop back toward mobo. From the distri plate it goes over to the left gpu then the second then back out gpu to plate and routed to the res for return.

I'll try to sketch up a flow diagram basically gpus get two rads up front and the CPU ram and mosfet get 2 monsta 360s in pedestal. I have quick disconnects that I'll be able to unthread at 140 fan hole in lower psu side to disconnect the ped

Awesome planning.

used the rest of my stainless today and finished most of the runs. still apprehensive to make some 90 bends specially in the shorter runs. have a instrument bender on the way and may try to bend the gpu 90s when i get my next stick of stainless. also took apart my 24 pin mobo cable to thread thru the mid plate and rewired it. she's coming along slow and steady. have my pedestal leak testing and need to still figure out a simple way of connecting the two.... think i got it figured out.

oh man. that manifold with the 24pin cutout is super slick!

[trestles126]

Couple questions for those following.

Of coarse I bought ek d5 pwm pumps. Well known I can't control thru my a6 any other ways to set and forget speed so they don't run full tilt? Hook up to mobo fan header and set thru bios?

My pedestal I plan on drilling two holes and placing grommets in the 140 lower fan mount and mounting it from the underside of my case. There will be two threaded quick disconnects on the bottom of distribution plate that continues the Cpu loop. Just can't think of a better way to make it clean but simple. I plan on running my solid half window door now on the psu side to hide some of the underside of the dis plate. Though it is clean want to focus on top half of Case.

I also disconnected the aquacomputer filter was way to many leak potentials in the ped and really it was only for asthetics never really used it specially with pastel liquid.

Thirdly I ordered a instrumental bender for the stainless and another 6ft of tube (90bucks &#129297 gonna try to do some bends on the gpu tubes. Anybody have experience bending stainless?

If you bought EK d5's with the 4 pin (PWM) header you can set through bios on mobo as long as you use true PWM port. Used to be only on cpu fan 1 but I think newer Asus boards have true PWM on most if not all headers.

Also build is looking amazing!

Oh wow that 24-pin cutout is super slick. This build is looking better and better with each post!

Also started a seperate Instagram account to log my builds. Look me up and add me if that's your thing I'll prob update more on there than forums.
