Lmao, I thought it was pretty funny, but I didn't expect to get that many acknowledgements.
Lol, I know. Mine cost me a pretty penny.

Thanks for the comments and words of support Guys; its very much appreciated.

Ok; the only way to erase the unsavory mental image of two male modders is to replace the image - hopefully 3 will help.
Loaded motherboard tray... ready for action!
Veeeeery close now...![]()
wow! really diggin the "linear" look of the CPU-GPU lines...
i just love symmetry and linear tubing lines...

Great work! Absolutely love it!
Charles .. you are GODMOD!

Charles - looks wonderful as always - a suggestion for tube routing: get another d-plug, set up parallel in the GPU blocks and switch the barb on the block near the CPU to the left instead of the right so it lines up correctly with the CPU block port and the tube is straight.
I look at my equipment and this makes me cry lolawsome work there charles as usual!

Thanks for the comments Guys.
Thanks for your input Ian.
Perhaps once the build is finished, you’ll see what I’m up to. The hoses going into and out of the CPU block will both have a slight curve to offset each other. I thought this would provide an interesting visual flow to the aesthetic design and help balance the vertical lines – especially when viewed from straight on. The hose actually straightens out as it passes the chipset block. The other thing I wanted to achieve is for the vertical hose crossing the chipset fittings to do so exactly between them. This build is an exercise in millimeters… hopefully it will all make sense once the machine is complete!
Cheers.![]()
Ah okI like the way it looks in all the pics except the bottom one, I think its just the angle the the tube is viewed in that shot

Truly amazing, best of luck with the rest of the build.
Looks great =o
Performance wise, wouldn't it be better to separate the GPU from the CPU ? since you're doing dual loops =o
What are those clamps holding in the reservoirs? I like those a lot better than the standard clear ones.

Thanks for the comments Guys!
The second loop was decided on because of the restrictive nature of the P6TG WS MIPS blocks. I thought it would be best to put them on their own loop so they wouldn't affect the flow to either the CPU or the GPUs. This was my first dual loop TJ07 attempt... we'll see how it turns out. We will have serious monitoring data since each loop has an internal probe and will be monitored by the Aquaero.
They're custom made.
seba84_2005: That’s the thing – this Primochill Pro LRT hose is simply amazing stuff! Unless a hose totally collapses on itself, the ID is essentially the same whether it’s totally round or oval – at least that’s my understanding. I spent a good deal of time experimenting with this as the connection between the two mosfet blocks was very close and I didn’t wanted to use angled fittings if I didn’t have to.
Ok, now I have to get back to work before Daniel sees I'm slacking off!
EDIT: doh - too late!![]()
great work charles, only wish i could afford you to build one for me![]()
