Yeah, Mosfets are screwed in from back. I was a little weary on how tight i should torque the NB screws because the screws are almost the length of the motherboard stand offs and the block was still a little loose. I got the screws within .02mm of the mobo tray, and its a little tighter, at least no side-to-side play.

Oops, sorry, I missed your question.
The NB inlet/outlets are very close together, but yes, w/ 45 rotaries. I tried it out, two 45's+compressions fit fine (ill probably end up doing this). OR... i havnt tried it, but It could be very similar to what I did w/ the Fuzion, and a 45+comp on one side and a extender+comp on the other. They NB ports are slightly closer than the Fuzions, so it may take 2 extenders. Hopefully a pic will help, let me know if this doesnt make sense
I can measure later when i have a bit more time

Heres a non-hardware related update that im excited to post!
Since this build has grown in 2 stages, I decided a dedicated project like this should be given a name. Introducing...

Heres a little update to keep/grab some attention, as this build is 95% done... Awaiting 2nd pump, then comes the final photography part!
It might be a well known fact, but was news to me, but EK reseviours do not seal properly with 1/2" comp fittings. The fitting's base is too large to make a good seal between res+oring. I needed a G1/4 extender to achieve a seal
Other related news, i believe have the finishing touches to my fittings.... THANKS to BP and Gary @ sidewindercomp' for the works of art!

current state of the PC....
i needed the PC up and running asap for school work so I was kinda in a rush to get hardware in. I dont have much more work to do... just gotta find a way to fit font bay covers back on (scythe hdd rack gets in the way of the clips), and splice GPU fan cables (the stray ones that you see).
Also moving the tbalancer to the hdd rack
havnt had time to OC yet either ><

i had that problem with the scythe rack mount too. what i did was drilled 3 new holes on each panel, so that i could move the bays 1cm back. and then my bay brackets just clicked on.
cool, thanks for the tip.
