Hello to everyone here at XS, Why I'm posting at the water cooling section, is because I feel like this is my home. Yes, Water cooling. And I didn't find anywhere else to post, lol:p
I've been hanging around at Overclock.net for a while, great forum indeed. But XS seems pretty hardcore and got pretty much everything about overclocking etc.
Anyway, my name is Kristoffer and I'm from Norway, 19 years old and I'm up to overclocking. At the moment I'm looking after a good 775 setup and a good CPU pot for DICE and LN2 OC's, I've never tried it before so it will be a new experience.
Hum, I've only been into computers for like 8months now and I'm really enjoying it 2nd best hobby after my Irish Setter and Hunting.
I guess I could post a picture of my current rig Since its a water cooling thread, it probably need to contain some water cooling,:p
Jupp, that's my hello to everyone at XS. Just send me a PM or something if you like to know something, I love talking about overclocking and computers.
Ship'O hoi
-Best Regards Kriztoffer

Welcome! I'm intensely glad you've posted pics of your rig, as I have a Black Pearl I ordered today, and will be water cooling my EVGA X58 Classified and i7 920. This gives me great ideas for placements and a good feel for how everything will fit. Thanks!

Too late....You posted! Now your stuck here forever spending your money on new parts. If you have a girlfriend you might as well kiss her goodbye right now. j/k Welcome to our little crack hut of watered down dreams.
Very nice computer, stay out of the "online deals and sales" and "for sale" sections, or you will burn a hole in your wallet, dont tell your girlfriend about anything you do here, and remember, we are now your first family. get used to it.

Welcome to the forum!!! Awesome build, I'm working on a Black Pearl case right now. So quick question any problem withe he PSU mounted that way? Because doesn't the fan face the midplate?

Hmm, what should I say. There is a little gap between the middle plate and the PSU, just like if you got two cards in CF close to each other. My psu didn't get any warmer I think but I'm looking at it pretty often.
My plan was to make a new psu bracket, but I haven't got the time yet.
Thanks alot mate! I love the black pearl, looking forward to more builds of that kind

Awesome thanks for the heads up...I haven't put a PSU in there yet to see how it cleared(don't have a spare). So thanks again! You got some nice builds there in your list!

No worries mate!I can't say my hx1000 ain't any hotter than before. But I guess time will show.
