Update Time!

I picked up the Swiftech XT from CrazyPC yesterday and it is a great looking block. Gabe has decided to slot the hold down plate so that the only thing you will have to change is the backplate when moving through the different socket designs. Nice touch.

The photos really don't do this thing justice. It is a great looking block. The adjustable inlet is also a nice touch. You can see why the temps are less in alt config though as it is a bit more restrictive. Two 45s seem to fit fine though, so that is what I will probably end up doing.

Lets see what we can do for some photos.

First, Here is my little helper.



Seems he is a little preoccupied atm.



The only nice thing about Fall here in MI. The trees start turning and it is really pretty. As you can see it not a great day here today though.
I guess it gives me an excuse to stay in and work on the build.



I don't have the backplate yet. It will probably be here Monday though. So the block is just sitting there. I also got a better shot of that board too.



That XT is a nice looking block. I really like it.



A better photo of that GTX295 in her pretty black dress for you guys.



Well, I will be finishing the tear down of the Cosmos 1000 this weekend. I seem to have found a place that is a bit closer to me for powdercoating. I have to talk to them on Monday.

I'll also be working on the sleeving of that Corsair PSU.

Thanks for looking in.

Edit: So mail just arrived and there was the backplate. Nice work Gabe.
