wow, nice spraypainting. yup, saw the pics (yeah, they show the interior a bit better). still trying to figure out how you run a pc without cables :D

Ok,
So I just finished my new setup, it's not as slick as some of the ones on here, but considering I am pretty new to water cooling and case modding I think it came out alright. As you can see I am still leak testing, once that is done I will fire it up and see if all my hard work has paid off. Let me know what you think.
Thanks,
Utnorris
Utnorris, looks real good......what power supply you gonna run in that?? and you just using distilled water with no additive?
Utnorris what case is that? custom?
Thank you guys for the comments, I really, really appreciate it. As far as PSU, I ended up using the OCZ Gamestream 700watt. Its not modular, but I have plenty of room for the extra cables. I am using just distilled water with anti-algae, although I had used red color water last time and unfortunately some of that tint is left over. Still trying to figure out what I can use to clear it up a bit, maybe a couple drops of bleach? Probably not, :). The case is one I built out of acrylic. I wanted something like the DD, but a little bigger and not so expensive, so I built one myself. Not quite as good as DD with their laser cuts, but overall I am happy with the final results. I just can't wait to fire it up, crossing fingers, and see how it looks with the blue LED fans running. Anyway, thanks again everyone for the comments.

taylormsj, I like the look of the window, nice color scheme. Black/gray and silver looks good.
mr beamer, what case is that? Might be a stupid question but it's huge.
mr beamer - Beautiful rig you have there :up:
:up:
The white-orange combo, nice looling no doubt bout it.:clap:
what do you guys say ?
2 x Dual Rad Vs 1 triple Rad ?
i'am making a new loop ( Cpu Chipset Vga ) and i don't know what to do :(
nope, it´s innovatek protect and red food color :)
I think you will find as far as cooling it would be similiar, however it may be more restrictive with two duals vs. a single triple. I had asked the guys over at Petra's and that seemed to be their thoughts on it. The only reason I a did two duals was because I already had one and it just seemed to be the best option for me. I really think it will come down to your pump selection and how restrictive your other loop components will be, i.e. the EK Supreme is more restrictive than the D-Tek Fusion. Check out the flow estimator to get an idea of which might be better for you, it's a great tool to get an estimation of how restrictive your parts will be.

Hope that helps,

the estimator does not have the stuff i have ( Eheim 1250, MCW-30, MCW-60 and one eleven's Block ) :(
as for the rad's i have one dual but if i decide to go for the triple the dual will be used in one other system so there is not much to lose :).
if we had only one question.
only for the cooling performance
2 duals Vs 1 triple
and let's forget the power of the pump, the flow restrictive and everything else what the answer would be ?
two duals performs better than one triple or vice versa ?
@Janno: It´s a selfmade 5mm plexi plate with a 3mm hole for a Led in it. i also made ventilation holes in the middle. i bought the spikes from this ebay seller:

Did a little more cable management to tidy up a few cables I was unhappy with:
