    Freaking FINALLY.. watercooled SR-2

    Some people know that I've been trying to get my new mainrig up and running for 3 or 4 months now. Yes, I'm talking about the SR-2. First I didn't have a board, then I got one early thanks to Dave
    But then I didn't have a waterblock. So I sent the board to Eddy from Ek waterblocks, he reckoned it would take like 2 weeks or so.
    Well, that was 2 months ago

    Anyway, today I got my board back, along with the first retail quality FC block from EK.. enjoy







    Of course, the board only arrived today, and as some of you may be aware, I'll be leaving for France tonight. After that, I'll be on vacation in Croatia, meaning that I won't get to build my new mainrig for yet another 3 weeks or so

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Edit: Finally got some nice pics of my finished rig for y'all - enjoy!

    That looks sick.

    I wish SR-2 would fit in my case. Then I'd be saving my pennies.
