    Personally, no idea, I took the PCI-e bracket in and told him I wanted that, he said, "Ahh, textured black, we can do that" and that was it, turned out great!

    Such a beautiful build, ding! Totally feeling the textured black.
    I've always been an admirer of your sleeve color selection. I would have chosen purple tubing though err... purple liquid.
    I remember back in the day, Hulk always had purple pants for some reason.

    More please!

    Mips for sure, can use your own barbs VERY easy to install, take the top heatsink off the dominator (3 screws per stick) and you're done, just place the block ontop and screw it on.

    Thanks for the input and i think that would be better than trading my doms for ocz blades

    Small update for you all.

    Meet the twins, twins, meet the audience...

    (I'll be using a black 90*)



    Not all is glamour, as you can see, the 90* hits the backing, so, I need one of THESE but it's around $20AUD shipped for the fitting + it'll take around 2 weeks. I should be able to work around it though, even if I have to use 2 45*'s together. We'll see what happens. My reservoir should be here in ~2 weeks so that means I'll be at completion!

    Yeah, seen them, but, for some reason I think the black sparkle will look nicer, breaks up all the black

    Loving the twins, ding! Black sparkle and Matte Black do go well together.
    Looks like everything is coming together this time 'round much smoother.

    But ouch for $20.00AUD for an extender.
    When I was in Aussie, a 750ml bottle of bourbon was close to $40. Ouchie.

    Thanks man

    Yeah, I know, we pay a premium over here, for no reason. Prices should be MUCH lower for everything but they raise the price, cause they can.
    $40, yep, you're smack bang on that.

    Damm right we do, for everything.
    It makes me cring when I see the prices over in the states, you can add 30+% just for the fun of it over here.

    As to the "old and wise modder with 30 years of watercooling and casemodding experience" not true, especially not the old bit, well I am getting there at 37 years old I guess.
    But what I do bring to the table is 20+ years of fabrication skills working in a variety of industries from welding fabrication of truck bodys to striping and re-building blast drills rigs on gold mines,
    to a wood machinist in a salvage yard, I like a change, to mix things up a bit.
    I do know my way around steel, aluminium, perspex, wood and worked with high PSI hydraulics before. Thats how I found out I hate grease, oil and most of all black jack.

    As to the water cooling PC side of thing and building a PC from the ground up,
    you could probably teach me a thing or two.

    The most important thing I have learnt in life is "All I know, is nothing at all" and I really do mean that, there is just so much knowladge out there, a life time of learning wouldn't even scratch the surface.
    The best thing anyone can do is seek out the people with the knowladge that they need/want, listen and ask (hopefully) intelegent questions.

    Thats why I am here at XS, I feel it's the best place to learn about WC PC and pass on a little knowladge to others, I hope you don't feel I have miss led you in any way.
    I am really looking forward to starting this building as well.

    It's ok GK, I know when I am being revved up, I have worked with some pretty sharp tongues in the past, what and being burnt by weld splatter have given me pretty thick skin.

    As for you ToX, you'll keep, I'll get you back one day.


    Ok, Ok, so now we all know where we stand.

    It's Back to you Dingdong for another update.
