I've actually just been learning photography this past year ... so still a long ways to go.
Incredible work Shazza! :oscar: Thank you for sharing!
I just looked up that camera and WOW!
The price for it is madness.
But it looks to be a beauty, I'd love to have a one :D
Shazza, please show more photos - also from the outside :)
Shazza what kind of fittings are those on your gpu waterblock?
Thanks, JimiP - glad you enjoyed it.Quote:

Will give it another go in a couple weeks when I return from vacation. Also want to get some showing the view in the top window, as that came out better than expected.Quote:

LOL ... good one, SIGfever! I had a bear just like that when I was growing up ... still have it, actually (so it's REALLY OLD :) )
40D is hardly old in the Canon line it was released in aug 08 and the 50D was released in Oct 08.Quote:

You have a great camera and with some good lenses could take some very good pics.

Nice job, shazza. I like your photographs. :)

Rest assured, camera equipment won't be holding me back ... my husband has a IDsIII, and a 5D ... and a great collection of lenses. In this case, it's the photographer who has a lot to learn ;), but I'll get there. I'm at the point where I can recognize a great shot, even if I can't yet create them.
@SIGfever ... now that's a nice bear, but a little too blingy for my taste :rofl:
@Ashraf ... thank you for your nice comment.
Wow, awesome looking build.
Love the multi colored tubing for the different loops. Might do something similar to that with my next build.
Good luck with the rest of the build!

Outstanding build. I plan on using many elements of it as a guide for my own, if I ever get the parts together for it.
Wow, awesome build and awesome pictures!

I've got them temporarily mounted using the pads that come with the pumps - peeling only a small piece of the protective paper, since I've moved things often. I was worried about heat, but so far no problem ... being that close to the fans from the radiator may help. Thinking about trying some of (UN) Designs brackets for my permanent mount.Quote:

looks great as always shazza.
I have used the neoprene pads that come with the DDC and have never had heat problems or failure, actually in my build the pump that used to run in the old build as a hard mount with good cooling runs slower RPM than the one that was on the neoprene pad.... I suppose that's a function of loop restriction though :)
Shazza,
This is truly a work of art! I love people that are passionate about their work and hobbies and you fit that bill!
Here is my fuzzy guy! A tribute to my favorite Airedale...Mr. Angus.http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...n/DSC01369.jpg
You should try them after all I need some way to pay for my build! :up:Quote:

Thanks for the nice comments, Sniipe, theseeker (I love Mr. Angus), and Dave. I'm itching to get back to my water cooled build ... am in Florida for a couple of weeks, and it wouldn't fit in my carry on. Keeping myself occupied working on my Florida rig ... doing some cable management at the moment (arrggghh). I'm dying to watercool the i7, but it doesn't make sense when I'll only be in Florida sporadically for the next year or so. I sense an upgrade on the Mountain Mods build before I even finish it :p: That's the trouble with buying my parts almost a year ago and then not having time to do the build.
