the nickel plating is nice :up:
my SLI fittings arrived today so I was able to assemble the gfx loop and see what it will look like inside the case for the first time.
I pick up the new res tomorrow so hopefully this weekend ill get it all assembled and hit the power button!

cheers mate... im not sure how the good the flow will be to the 3rd card since they are parrallel, but ill test it and see.
looking good man. i had a question - in the 5th picture from post #1, what are those clamp type things holding the tube to the side of the bays like that?

just a cable tie
oh ok i see it now.. do you know if there is any clamp type thing that a 3/4" OD tube would fit nicely in? im looking for something to hold my filling tube so i can easily attach/detach it.
looking really good mate!could you link me to those sli fittings.

Im looking out for the res's :up:
wow... what kind of radiators you using?
black ice rads
480gtx 240gtx iirc
Any updates B@llzor? :)
you have pm.
man what a nightmare weekend... it seemed that everything I touched sprang a leak!
I thought I had it all sorted last night when my M180 GTX Rad sprang a leak.
Ive since pulled it out of the system, hopefully ill power up tonight!
Ill post an update when I get back from work.
oh crap that sucksQuote:

all the leaks were in the basement, I installed 4 temp sensors in delrin tees (one on the inlet and outlet of the rads) it was very cramped and I found it hard to get the fittings tight.Quote:

Looks like someone filled my rez with smurf jizm, I flushed the rads... nfi what caused this cloudiness

Windows is loading as I type this.
Still a lot to do on it, the Gfx Cards need some lighting... looks like a black hole down there... I decided to defer all "non essential" mods until after I got it up and running.
It will be good to get some temps recorded before my replacement M180 arrives anyway.
Flow on the GPU loop is good at 3.7L/m, the cpu loop is not so good at 3.1 but should be ok.
Are you using sketch-up??? Do you import a template or do you have freehand allover???
Sorry for Off topic post
Nice work!

1st the S2E was a real :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana: to get going... took me ages to figure out the reason it would only boot with the install dvd in the drive. Turns out it had written the MBR to my storage drive... a tip for anyone installing vista, only have one HDD or array connected when installing.
2nd after finally getting the system running, I woke up one morning and the pc would short when I tried to power up... not a good sign, I finally discovered that a micro leak from my flowmeter had ran down some tubes and onto my 8800s... 2 of them are DOA.
The only place I can find replacement 8800 ultras is a rip off merchant from ebay charging 800$ each for them (since they are discontinued) ive been looking at EKs new 280 blocks and considering upgrading to 3 x EVGA 280s (@ $800 each) but my psu doesnt have 3 x 6+8 PCIe connectors (it has 2 x 6+8 and 1 x 6+6)
BANANAS!!!!
sorry to hear that mate :(Quote:

also wait abit AS the gtx 280 are dropping in price....
:rotf:
Oh man, you really need a store to mess up and send you 3 GTX280s instead of 1. I mean I think you have had enough bad luck for the year. Try RMAing them, you still have one to keep you happy for the 2 months right?
PS : Best of luck and by that I mean the good stuff :)
ive taken off the stock coolers and chucked em :/Quote:
