Thanks heaps all!!
Personally, no idea, I took the PCI-e bracket in and told him I wanted that, he said, "Ahh, textured black, we can do that" and that was it, turned out great! :)Quote:

I've always been an admirer of your sleeve color selection. I would have chosen purple tubing though err... purple liquid.
I remember back in the day, Hulk always had purple pants for some reason. :p:
More please!
Hahah, good to see you're back in the crew Capt. :)Quote:

thank you
It was beautiful your case! congratulations, I loved the system that hides the source of the rest of the pc!
Small update for you all.
Meet the twins, twins, meet the audience...
(I'll be using a black 90*)

Not all is glamour, as you can see, the 90* hits the backing, so, I need one of THESE but it's around $20AUD shipped for the fitting + it'll take around 2 weeks. I should be able to work around it though, even if I have to use 2 45*'s together. We'll see what happens. My reservoir should be here in ~2 weeks so that means I'll be at completion!

Looks excellent there mate, have you by chance seen the salt and pepper shakers in Matte Black for the D5/MCP655 Mod Kit in
CptDreadFlint work log, they look sweet.

Yeah, seen them, but, for some reason I think the black sparkle will look nicer, breaks up all the black :)Quote:

I intend to only use the black sparkle BP fitting on my build, hopefully starting in Jan 2010.
super duper hulk pumping power!
looks 100% awesome :up:
considering all that advices that you give on this forum I imagine you as old and wise modder with 30 years of watercooling and casemodding experience teaching noobies (like me :)) how to do this thing :rofl:Quote:

Loving the twins, ding! Black sparkle and Matte Black do go well together. :up:
Looks like everything is coming together this time 'round much smoother.
But ouch for $20.00AUD for an extender. :(
When I was in Aussie, a 750ml bottle of bourbon was close to $40. Ouchie.
Thanks guys! More shortly.
Thanks man :DQuote:

$40, yep, you're smack bang on that. :shakes:
Damm right we do, for everything.Quote:

As to the "old and wise modder with 30 years of watercooling and casemodding experience" not true, especially not the old bit, well I am getting there at 37 years old I guess.Quote:

I do know my way around steel, aluminium, perspex, wood and worked with high PSI hydraulics before. Thats how I found out I hate grease, oil and most of all black jack.
As to the water cooling PC side of thing and building a PC from the ground up,
you could probably teach me a thing or two.
The most important thing I have learnt in life is "All I know, is nothing at all" and I really do mean that, there is just so much knowladge out there, a life time of learning wouldn't even scratch the surface.
The best thing anyone can do is seek out the people with the knowladge that they need/want, listen and ask (hopefully) intelegent questions.
Thats why I am here at XS, I feel it's the best place to learn about WC PC and pass on a little knowladge to others, I hope you don't feel I have miss led you in any way.
I am really looking forward to starting this building as well.
this is all i saw when i read your last post :shrug:Quote:
