All blue obsidian. Looks real nice (except maybe night shot with led lightning .. i'm guessing it's red light from below, that spoils look in my eyes)
Any worklog link? I'm interested in how well those NoiseBlockers work with mesh/dust filter restriction.

Thanks man. I really couldnt find a UD7 with the EK blocks on it to get an idea on how it would look with the tubing run. The fittings are close which forced me to use 3/8" id 5/8" od tuging due to the tight bends and lack of space between the fittings on the NB SB block.

I have a work log on here but it aint much. Here is the link though
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=248425
I know what your talking about with the night shot. The red light is from the dbug led on the MB. Im guessing a piece of tape could solve that problem :). Im sure that my terrible camera work doesnt help either.

Everything looks good, but something is missing, I just can't seem to figure it out, but there just isn't enough 'pop'. Maybe it's just the flash is washing out the colors and preventing the 'pop'.
Really looks great though, super clean. How are you liking those Noise blockers, been meaning to try some out.
Edit: Maybe try getting some natural light into the room and turning your flash off, could definitely show off how well all of your blues match. I believe the natural light will also show off the Corsair black paint as well and prevent some of the graying.

I think your tubing arrangement can be improved, especially on the vid card.
-
I think your tube routing could look a lot cleaner. Just as a question, did you go with the misconception that some parts in the loop should go before others to receive 'cooler' water?

Hmm, i wonder if something can be done with last diagonal piece of tubing from cpu waterblock to mosfet one :) .. some smartly placed/turned 45deg rotary magic? :)
I will try some other solutions next weekend ;)

Any chance for a shot of the rad(s) ?
Thanks. The rad (PA140.3) is put somewhere under my desk :)

This is what overly photoshop'ed images does to you after a while ;)
Looks cool :)

I agree that we're used to photo-shopped images around here, but there is also a difference between good and bad light and I think that would help his pictures a great deal.

First water cooling build

Lately it seems that Corsair Obsidian 800D cases are taking over TJ07's spot of most popular one :)
Lovely build. I like that minimalistic tubing and easy to use drain.
Dual DDCs are overkill for such unrestrictive loop imho. :)

Which forum are we on here? :p:
Very nice though! Well-done for a first attempt.
I say "attempt" because we all know you will feel you need to add or change something within a few months (weeks).

In the above was Q9550, EP45-UD3P and G Skill PI 1100mhz 4GB ram and now contains:
EVGA Classified E760 (P6T until its back from RMA)
Intel i7 920
Corsair Dominator GT 1866
Probably going to put a 5870 in the loop when i can afford it
Let me know what you think, cheers!

How is the pump connected to the res little man? is it a hard connection or just two pieces of small tubes and compressions? also looks like the res is floating i assume it is attached to the mobo tray?
-
hard connection, bitspower rotary male to male fitting.
-
Very nice build Little Man, is that Primochill tubing? I got some of that for my build.

Hey Onoff, im just using one of these http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?...ducts_id=11941
Bitspower G1/4 Black Sparkle rotary adapter allows you to link two G 1/4" threaded water cooling parts, and rotate your parts 360 degrees so that they are angled in the direction you prefer.
There are 2 res holders there, just they are black and hard to see. The pump just touches the midplate so i probably wouldnt need them anyway.

Thanks Scott, yeah its primochill UV Red :)

Very cool, the tubing doesn't look as great as that w/o water inside of it (or UV lights reacting with it).
