Hi guys, this was my first attempt at water cooling. And I decided I was not going to go soft tubing, wanted to go hard line first.
I had a very particular vision in mind. And once I saw the case and distribution plate available, I knew I had to make it.
CPU: Ryzen 9 3900X
CPU Block: Watercool's Heatkiller IV Darkside edition
Case: Lian Li o11
Motherboard: ASRock x570 Taichi
GPU: Rx 5700 xt
GPU Block: EKWB Vector Acrylic + Nickel, EKWB Nickel Backplate
Distribution plate: EKWB Lian Li O11-DPG1
Finally getting some tubing in. Had never done ANY water cooling before, so going straight to hard lines was fun.
Radiators: 2x EKWB PE 360
Fans: 6x Noctua NF-P12 redux 120mm
I wanted to have fittings as the bends on the front side of the case as opposed to normal bent tubing.
Purely personal choice.
Acrylic tubing, 16mm OD
Freshly filled, not bled.
Micro bubbles galore!
I went with Liquid Mayhems Pastel White, hoping some LEDs can set the colour tone as opposed to dye.
Fully closed up after I finished my 24hr leak test. NO LEAKS ON MY FIRST BUILD.
Went with a teal colour scheme for the LEDs. It is NOT this aggressively vibrant IRL, lol.
I'm so happy with how it came out!
And Daz, thanks for having everything I could have possibly needed to make this happen.
