    New project with Thermaltake coming up! This is going to be a big one. Core X71 Case. Dual loops.




    Hardware:
    Ryzen 1700x
    Asus X370 Strix Crosshair Hero 6
    G.skill RGB Trident X 16GB 3600mhz or Watercooled ram
    Thermaltake Toughpower 1000W RGB PSU
    2x R9 fury

    Watercooling:
    2x Thermaltake P22 res/D5 pump combo
    16mm Thermaltake Mpro fittings
    4x Thermaltake 360mm radiators
    Thermaltake W3 CPU block
    2x EKWB fury X gpu block
    14x Thermaltake Riing RGB fans
    Thermaltake c1000 clear liquid &
    Thermaltake blue dye

    I don't have the Ram and mobo yet, and the case was damaged in shipping so waiting on a new one to start painting. The plan is dark blue metallic exterior, silver and blue inside on rads, res/pumps and cables. Blue and clear for the loops with some plain white darkside strips for lighting. I might be able to fit a 480mm in the front but if not then 4x 360mm will have to do, sigh. And unfortunately no push/pull configs on any rads, but I hope rads are sufficient for fans to be off/slient while not gaming.

            Thanks guys. Still waiting on a few parts to get started, like the case which should be in soon... For now I've made a slight upgrade as I was planning on getting the X370 strix, but i have upgraded to the crosshair hero x370 thanks to getting a used one on the forums here. (thanks FightMeIrl) I think its the nicest mobo I have owned, very pretty so I had to take pics.

              Nice shots! Yeah I love that board too. And once you get into OCing, you'll be glad you got that board, with the beta bioses especially. WARNING THOUGH: if you decide to install Asus Aura software, MAKE SURE you're running the very latest version. I don't know all the details, but there has been memory SPD corruption on those G.Skill RGB sticks that might be related to Aura. If that happens, you're either RMAing your ram or re-writing the SPD tables with software.

                Good pics and nice board. No M.2 slot or is it hidden? I guess you could just go Nvme

                  Ah, thanks Bart. I was worried about the SPD issue. Good to know the latest version is fixed at least.

                  And my chip is kinda weird, I'm getting 3.9ghz on 1.35v, but I can't hit 4 with any safe voltage on the prime. Hoping CH6 might get that 4.0 due to better power delivery.

                  Thanks MemBus, and I didn't see it at first either but its right under the chipset heatsink and can fit a pretty long module in there.
