Corsair 540 Water Cooled Build

De-lidding on a 3770K is a miracle for temps. On Haswell, not so much

I really like the UV effect on your setup there, Chann3l. It's relatively subtle judging from your photos and definitely looks good with the green LEDs.

Thank you . I have a green cold cathode kit but only used one of the lights just to create a subtle ambient effect so the uv cathode kit could really shine. Temps also improved as I used Liquid Ultra on both the die and ihs. Edit : I will get some better photographs up soon to really show the UV effect and just more pictures in general. Got a new lense for my Nikon S1 and adapter so I can fit any Nikon lenses on my s1 and I'm still getting used to it

So my original night photos did not do this justice. I have taken new photos and tried to keep the resolution as high as possible without exceeding file size limits for the forum. I have a few more coming in the next post. Enjoy!

Thanks, once I get those feet I think it will be time to call it done lol. Although I'm never really done a build.

the upgrade path

Exactly, I'll be waiting for ddr4 and the next extreme Intel series to hit the market and to come down a bit in price. 3770k is plenty fast enough until than....and probably beyond lol
