So while i was on an oil rig for a month in the Atlantic, i planned out a water cooling build in the brand new Phanteks Enthoo Pro case. The water cooling system was designed around keeping an I7-4790K Devils Canyon and an AMD R9 290X quiet and happy. So here is the striped Enthoo Pro chassis showing off its water cooling potential. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B62...it?usp=sharing
Water cooling equipment for the build:
Phanteks Enthoo Pro
Swiftech MCP35X
EK Supreame Clean
Aquacomputer 290X copper GPU block with the passive back plate
Alphacool UT60 240mm
Coolgate 360mm high density
3 Gentle typhoon AP45
4 Swiftech Helix PWM
Premochill 120mm CTRII tube reservoir
10ft of primochill LRT advanced I/2ID X 3/4OD
lots of fittings
home build voltage regulator for the AP45's
New computer hardware:
I7-4790K
Gskill 8Gb 2400MHz C10
ASUS Maximus VII Hero
recycled hardware:
Silverstone OP850
Samsung 840 EVO
Modding tools available:
Steel nibbler
Steel files
So I needed to put some holes in the case to accommodate the features of my water cooling build. two holes in the bottom and 1 hole in the top.

It seems that Alphacool didnt leave enough space around the barbs fittings to accommodate 3/4OD compression fittings. So i had to file a notch into the fan frame to make the fan fit.
