Evil: NO MORE TEASES! Post the whole thing if your going to, or don't post at all! Your killin' me man!

Is that some flirting on XS I sense?

Not at all. Is there something wrong with complimenting the lovely lady in the avatar? Ladies do like to hear that they look good and when they do, I let them know, maybe that's where I'm going wrong?

[NysoO]

Evil, that looks so slick. Love all the copper! Give us more pics

@nerosachf - Do you still have two loops? Two loops aren't needed for only the CPU and one graphics card. You could make it look a lot better if you only had the one loop for the CPU and the graphics card.

Not everyone is accustomed to see some flirting, being locked in the basement doing tweaks on the computers

Nothing wrong and I agree with you that if the pic is really her, she got great eyes

Question on the the tubing guys, does the Tygon stay clear over time? I noticed using the Swiftech Hydrx my Masterkleer tubing turns cloudy after a few months.

Nah, it won't stay clear forever... It might last a bit longer clear than the Mastekleer tho. IMO, there is nothing like Tygon Tubing... I hate that Masterkleer tubing.

I have ditched the dual loops... and the case for that matter, selling it currently. I was able to get a Soldam Windy black aluminum case that is smaller and a bit more elegant I think. I have also updated my vid card from the 8800gtx to a 3870x2 (want to eventually do crossfirex). I have also sold off/traded most of the 2nd loop parts.
My new setup will be just one loop. I have not decided yet if I will do the 3870x2 and CPU or just the CPU. I am going for looks on this build and it depends what I can fit into the case neatly.

I'm jealous you're getting a Windy! Btw my good friend is living in Nagoya for this year for study abroad.

That looks very professional and to XS! Good job with the cable management and you did well not having excess tubing.

[robf]

Thanks for the welcome.

I used a greenlee punch for much of this build, great little tool for making perfect holes in a nice aluminum case.

[smee]

Wow Dom! Thats one of the nicest watercooled stackers I've seen yet!!!
Good job on that one!

[taowulf]

That is a Cosmos, not a Stacker.

welcome and I never heard of a greenlee punch before but i googled it and it looks promising, how clean were the holes? no need for filing?

also how did you do the rest of the straight cuts? dremel? thanks

The holes were very clean. No need for filing, but I touched up with emery cloth, as the edge is very sharp. It's a shearing action, and it leaves a very sharp edge. Leaves a perfect hole in Lian-li's aluminum.

The straight cuts were done with a jigsaw with a decent metal blade. Let's just say that it was 25% jigsaw, and 75% filing.

cheers,

It's actually the nickel-plated block, but it shows up black in several photos. Very sharp block!

Dom, +1, very nice cosmos, very clean. how's your d5 handle the loop?
