Received the mb two days ago. That box is huge with the monoblock and leak tester inside! Sadly i had to contact EK support because somethings wrong with the block. I was very impressed how fast things went. Had to contact them a couple times in the past. Service was fast but not that fast. Parts already on the way. After sending them pictures I will show here, the agent i spoke with decided to send replacement, carbon fiber plates since I have to remove it before i can reach all the screws. Probably 2 or 3 of them so my nephew wont have to contact them again on maintenance day. Also sending me a bunch of badges since those too might get damaged on the dismantling process. And finally, they are sending the acrylic top because they dont know what is that white powder in the block. Most likely some leftover from machining i think but they don't want to take any chances.
So i have to wait untill i receive these parts to go on rebuilding again but at least I didn't have to go through the whole RMA process which will make things much faster. In any case i would have to wait anyways because the 10850k got delayed until December 9th. Grrr.
Now I'm looking at the 3 cases i have here and none will work... too small for dual loop with 4 rads... I'm not going for single loop for sure after the 10k invested in this project.. so i need to figure something out because no funds for either a TT W00/WP100 or a Corsair obsidian 1000D. If my stuff would sell, maybe i could afford it but right now, I'm at the edge of my breaking point. So many things gone wrong with this build. Like everything is againts me... anyways, couple pics...
