DB: i wonder if you have any plans of trying out some project of completely different looks then high tech futuristic ones. For example - some retro/steampunk build with wood/tarnished copper/oldish looking components/gauges and so on?

What temperatures have you seen, while in load ?
With the fans (coolermaster sickleflow -- push config thru the front radiator, pull config throug the top radiator) on low, I haven't seen the water temp get past 42C. With the fans on high, it will get down to around 35C. Ambient air in the house is 72F. Vcore is between 1.39 to 1.41 verified at the motherboard terminal test point with a Fluke multimeter. The water is just distilled water with a few drops of PT nuke. I just installed it last night, so I haven't done any longer tests, but I ran it for a few hours before bed. I have been running this processor at 4GHz since the day it was released.. I'm surprised it hasn't crapped out yet. But, the system has been 100% stable with no BSODs for years.. knock on wood.
edit: Here was my old setup with a Magicool slim radiator internally mounted in a LL v351. It would sometimes get too hot after 4+hrs of gaming..

Finished few months ago, "Red Fortress"
This is such a clean, cool system. There is no flashy crap, just aesthetic perfection. You really did this right.
Second version of my simple chrome build. The first trial caused some minor issues.. (Don't use Ek's red coolants with anything white )
edit: updated pic after the card swap and liquid cooling added to the GTX 1080 that was put in place of the RTX 2080 TI which went to the gaming rig.
I half assed the liquid cooling in this system as it was an after thought since it was originally AIO cooled till the second AIO cooler in a row failed on it. (avoid Enermax AIO products like the plague! They're total garbage mixed metal systems with no corrosion inhibitors or bio inhibitors in their coolant.)
