:D
Yea, I forgot what date it was when setting bios date. I then kept forgetting to change it when starting my computer up. :rolleyes:
I purposly restarted my comp one day just for that. :p:

Very very nice build!
Hey guys,
Sorry I haven't been around for a while. I got a bit busy with school and work and what not. Well, we have another update.
As most of you guys have seen, there have been issues with the T3. Mine seems to have been one of the few good ones, but I decided I didn't really want to take any chances, so we have an upgrade on the way.
I've decided to make the switch over to DDCs for space concerns. ( I'm waiting for the "I told you so" from Naekuh. ;))
Well here is what is coming:

I'm going to be using a 100mm tube res so I can keep everything in the drive bays. I'll be using some MCP355s.
Thanks for looking in. :)
Great to see an upgrade/some movement in this log hahas
So just curious, wad u gonna do with the T3?
I'm not certain atm.
I was thinking about selling it, but i would hate for someone else to get it and have it crack on them. I might just see if BoxGods wants it back. :D
Everything arrived today. I'll see if I can get some photos up this weekend.
I need to go by Lowe's on the way home from work tomorrow as I don't have any Torx screwdrivers to break down the pumps. :(
The Pump top and res combo look really nice.
Good deal, MT...Cant' wait to see piccys. BTW...welcome back!
Hay Miller it's excellent to see you back mate.:yepp:
It sux when the real world takes over.
It's good to see you have found some time, I am looking forward to hopefully seeing more enlightening posts from you around XS, I have missed that lately. :up:
What's up dude, haven't talked to you in a bit. So what you got in store for us? Where are the pics? :D
Nice to see ya, mt. Just hooked up the same pump top yesterday - seems to work fine, although I want to figure out how to test it to make sure the dual pump config is worth the extra heat dump (am only running a single loop atm).
Thanks guys, it is nice to be back.
Well, didn't get to Lowe's tonight, the weather has sucked and is suppose to still suck tomorrow. :(
I plan to spray those brackets black, but I might not get to that till Sunday as they are calling for rain all day tomorrow.
I was wanting to get the EK dual D5 top, but it was going to be too big. I mostly got it for the redundancy. My temps have stayed pretty low, so the extra heat dump shouldn't effect my loop that much. I may undervolt the pumps too. I'll make that decision once I see how loud they are.
Hopefully I can get some photos for you guys tomorrow. :)
w00t it's miller-time :D
Hey Nils. :D
Well, I got a photo for you guys:

I got lucky and the rain held off enough for me to be able paint the brackets.
Thanks for looking in. :)
:up: glad you're back from the "real" world
I use the silver BP fittings to avoid the lizard :p:
Looking nice Miller!
I liked the black ones for this. All the rest of my fittings are silver and you won't really see the plug once it is installed. That is the reason for the black ones is so they would blend in. :)
I do agree that the gold is a bit much. I wish they would of done them in white or used a smaller BP in the corner or something.
Thanks Wezly.
Brackets are painted. I hope to have some better weather tomorrow to take some more photos. I probably won't get in installed until next weekend though. :(
Loving how that res came out mounted on the top :up:
I'm really pleased with it too. It looks really nice.
There is no space for an anti-cyclone peice though. I was a bit concerned I would get a the cyclone seeing I've heard reports from you guys that these tube res's tend to do that.
I attached a tube from the outlet to the inlet on the side, just like how you see it in the photo. With 1 or both pumps turned on, no cyclone. I'm very pleased with that. :)
The pumps also don't seem to be that loud. They are louder than my D5/TIII set at setting 2. I'm going to just install them and see if it gets annoying, if so I'll look into putting them on a controller.
Well, we have an update.
Turns out my laziness has caught up with me. My T3 finally went the way of everyone else's it seems. Heard some air in the system tonight and come to find out, one of those ghost fittings broke. I'm 99% certain it didn't take anything with it as i got the comp shut down pretty fast.
The new pumps and res are installed and bleeding now. I will be booting it tomorrow afternoon and I'll see if I can get some photos up tomorrow for everyone to see.
I'm also not to certain what the deal is with those brackets that came with the dual DDC top from EK. I can't find any holes in my bays they line up with. It's just sitting in there now as I want to get my rig back up. I might not worry about it as the rubber anti-vibration screws make it a pretty snug fit in there.
That's awful! Did you find any water anywhere???
Now I'm concerned about the ghost compression fittings I have now.... Haven't run any water through them... :(
Are the brackets on the wrong sides? :D
I may have overtightened the fitting at one point. Water only got onto the burner. It had to go anyways, so even if it killed it, not a big deal.
Well, I went and measured them up to the burner and it might be my plan to flip them didn't work. I'm going to leave it as as for now though. I'm thinking about getting a new case anyways. :D
Dude, as soon as I replaced my cosmos S with a HAF932, all I saw and wanted was Cosmos builds...
Yeah, I didn't like how I had to mount the rads. Too messy, and I don't like to cut or drill holes...
Do something different! I like it! I haven't seen anyone do a Silverstone Fortress or whatever that positive pressure case is... Or try a raven RV-02?
Although, the Mountain Mod would give you OODLES of space.
