Touge180SX's i7/Bloodrage/HAF on Water Rebuild Part 3!!

[Touge180SX]

This is Part 3 of my i7/Bloodrage/HAF Water Build. Upgraded from a i7 920 C0 to a D0, one 4870x2 to two and swapped out the Corsair Dominator 1600's for G.Skill Perfect Storm PC3-16000 DDR3 2000's.

Here is a link to part's one and two:

Now, on to the pictures!


Out with the old (i7 920 C0)...


and in with the new (i7 920 D0)!!


G.Skill Perfect Storm PC3-16000 DDR3 2000




Dual Sapphire 4870x2's with Koolance Waterblocks



New fittings to add to the build


Everything prepped and ready for install


Swiftech GTX


4870x2's installed and connected with a TFC Crossfire Connection


Perfect Storm's installed



Everything installed and ready to fire up!










Going to try and figure out a different way to run the tubing from the CPU pump to the radiator.


I'm very picky about cable management. I individually heat shrank every wire of the ATX connectors and PCI-E connectors to get rid of all colors.


And finally, fired up! (Unfortunately, the fans for the Perfect Storm's were blue LED, but it is kinda growing on me)



Comments are definitely welcome, but only if they are constructive. Please keep the flaming out of this thread, thanks!

Well, that's all folks! Thanks for looking!

Another change coming soon!!

I love the bloodrage board! mine will be in within the next few days! awesome colour choices with the red coolant aswell, Personally i would have continued to sleeve all of those 24-pins until they were around the motherboard tray.... I hate the stupid thing it comes with Stock...

But other than that, really nice job!

Yeah, I agree about the sleeving. I'm actually doing a full rebuild again with a custom case and sleeving is happening as we speak!

Excellent job; looks great! I think you being picky about cable management is an understatment. I think it turned out great, makes me want to do something with my bloodrage

Yes, I have a second rad in the 5 1/4 bay. I run my rig at 4.2Ghz with HT on 24/7 but I can run completely stable at 4.6 with temps of about 70C and be fine. I like lower voltages though!
