This is looking good mate...
love that x2!
sleeving like a champ also
Good work look forward to more updates!
Charles it is I that am honored that you would allow me to be the first person in the world to receive your parts! They truly are individual works of art! But not only that but you then have shared so much more in the way of knowledge and advice that I could never put a dollar value to and for that I thank you
Thanks mate - great to see you back here
You asked and I shall deliver - an update....
Well the last few hours have been very productive. Got the case back from the powdercoaters in super fast time....I was told before dropping it off that it would probably take a 5 day turn around and it was ready in just under 3. How good is that! Turned out pretty well too
Now you may notice some marks on the mid plate and the mb tray - those are just my greasy fingerprints after removing the pieces from the packaging....after a quick wipe down they all dissappeared!
Anyway back on to the task at hand - so with all the pieces back I could start to reassemble the case and start fitting pieces....now at this stage I somehow got a little caught up in the building and didnt do enough of the photo taking...so things kinda go from this
and then I found myself here.....without any photos in between.
Also at this point I was still going to be using the SB block as part of the loop - that is no longer the case and it has been replaced with the stock heatsink. It actually looks like this now...
You can probably see the top grill is now in place as well...
went from this
And once the grill is removed you simply attach the little bracket and just pop it in...
Now I had left the paper on the top as Charles said that once removed it is a notorious dust magnet and as I was not ready for the finished shots I left it there.
The next update is quite big actually as I finally received my block for the 4870x2. Origianlly I contacted a few places like PPCs and asked if they could do a special combination on the block for me - unfortunately they said no but one of the small Aussie guys said "absolutely that would look sweet"........and this is a teaser of what he was referring to
So that wraps up my update for today - you will have tune in again tomorrow for your next fix!
Man on man your case is fantastic with its pimped out murdermod gear XD.
This is making my decision harder. TJ07 or 2010B. . . ..
I'm gonna need the contact info for your powdercoater...even if they are half a world away.
Looking very good Dangals...but come on with the teaser shot on the X2 block!!!
edit:
What is your loop order? I'm scratching my head here trying to figure it out.

Thanks BA - yeah really happy with how the powdercoat turned out.
I think the answer is obvious......
Couldnt help myself Skinnee - had to give you a reason to check back in tomorrow!
by the way it is Dangals not Dengals
Edit: loop order will be restop/pump > 120.2 > cpu > nb and the other loop will just be restop/pump > 120.3 > GPU
Nice work!
Looking forward to MOAR!

Hey awesome stuff dangals!
Ur a lucky man with all that MurderMod kit.
Enjoy it and keep taking those pics!
I wish I could but I have been unable to find anything that will do it. Charles said that the stuff he uses is extremely toxic and is not something that he can sell. If you know of anything that will do it please let me know.
Nah mate it is all good - I notice that you are on here probably more hrs than you sleep so it is bound to happen every now and then
Dont worry you wait will be short - another update is due tomorrow.
thanks for your kind words
Thanks Twwen2 - yeah I am incredibly grateful to Charles for giving me this opportunity
I will try and keep the pics flowing

Thanks Tox
Will Do mate
I left the protective paper on there as Charles said that for the first few days after you remove the paper it tends to attract alot of dust and I decided that I would leave it there till I was ready for the final pics - now that you have your own incomming you will see what I mean
Anyway onto the reason that most of you are reading this post for....an update.
4870x2 Perfection!
So as some of you have probably guessed by now that the block in question is in fact a Nickel Block with an Acetal cover instead of the standard acrylic one - as promised here are some more Shots of the 4870x2 block!
So the next step is to fit this in and get it leak testing! The end is in sight people! However I am going to take my time on this one as I really want to make sure that all of the connections are secure so I will post some updates when I can.
Sexy...just plain sexy! Dangals this build is giving me troubles. That 3/8" R3400 looks so good over the 1/2" barb it temps me to do the same. I'll be back to get my fix!

Amazing build Dangals, really love that GPU block, the black and nickel really match well with the rest of the case.
Makes me want to get started to my own TJ07 build, just need a few more parts and of course some murderWare.
Keep the pics flowing!!
thanks mate - yeah I am really happy with how it looks as it fits right in with the overall build aesthetics - but as for that last screw
Thanks ShoNuff - yeah the tubing is definately not coming off those barbs in a hurry
Thanks for the nice comment oily_17 I look forward to seeing your TJ07 build once you received your last few parts and the murderware
As there was not much progress today I thought I would include a pic to tide you over till the next update!
Enjoy!
very nice shot there Dangal! would make a great wallpaper!
