This looks awesome, i love all the swifty blocks on the Rampage Extreme.
Dual loops of goodness and smart routing, looks real great Shazza, fantastic job! :)
Edit. I didnt even see the 3rd loop you got in there for the northbridge, faaaar out! :D

Very nice Shazza.
That setup looks like it would definitely be easy to drain!
As long as your temps are good enough for you, that's what's important. That setup sure does look great and it certainly looks like it would be easier to work with for draining and loop maintenance!
I really, really love the Horizon cases!
Thanks for the comments, guys.
My loving husband (of 30+ years) does not approve of water cooling PCs. But, he makes a mean martini:

This was in honor of me still having a working system ... and, his hope that this means I'll now clean up his den and the dining room - where all the parts are stored.
so you would born 9 years after you got married? who does that work?Quote:

Such a beaut!
Nice build!!!
I must ask, what camera are you using?
So this is what a 3-loop modest build looks like :shocked:
Shaz you really could build professionally . . .you should think about doing individual builds for pay.
Those rotary 45's are the best thing since sliced bread :up:Quote:

That's one crazy build you have there. I'm glad your enjoying your hard work so have fun. Oh and I wish I had one of those vault-tec figures :( LOL. . . . damn it.
Thanks for the kind words - I used a Canon 40D with the 50mm / f1.4 lens for the recent shots.Quote:

She may be older than you think young man lol We all enjoy your builds Shazza you are always so meticulous:up:
Thanks for the comments, quattro and RADCOM (and yes ... you're right ... I'm an OLD lady :) )
A few pics to show some of this weekend's work:
Redid my CPU loop to get rid of the abrupt 90 degree bends off of the pump outlet / rad inlet. Used BP dual rotaries. Don't see any difference in my temps.

Most of my time was spent sleeving the cables on my PSU ... still have to spend some time arranging the Cables ... just some quick shots after I anxiously hooked everything up to make sure it still worked (note - I fdid test it first in my husband's PC :D ).

And, I sleeved and installed my Kaze Master Ace ...

Plus ... sleeved pumps, Power / Reset switches, fans, and more. Worn out, that's for sure.
Very nice work, Shazza!
looking good "shazza" love the tubing color selection!!
Wow that sure is a nice build! :up:
Did you do 2 wires per sleeve on the ATX connector? Looks a little different, thus my question.
Great work! :up: Hehe! you must be The COOLEST Grandmother EVER! :)
(recently I found out, that my dad (just retired) is apperntly hooked on video games!
No watercooling though! - yet! :D)
wow just great... I love the 4870x2 loop just pure business :D great stuff! congrats on a great build :D
looks awsome
Thanks for the comments, folks. Makes my sore fingers feel a little better!
Yes, skinnee ... I did 2 per sleeve on the ATX connector. I was a little worried about all the spaghetti doing 1 wire per sleeve, and wanted to try something a little different. In retrospect, probably a bit easier to control the "look" by doing 1 per sleeve. I'll see what I can do after playing around with it a bit.Quote:
