Very Nice. I have the waterbox plus, I wish I had the smaller one like you have.

[evian_26]

nice whats the dimension?

[Kryja]

Looking at it I wouldn't think there was much room for air to get in under the case for the rad, but your temps are nice.

Very smart indeed

[meanmoe]

That's nice. very compact - I like.

[Sadasius]

Nice and simple sometimes makes the elegance. Like the fill/drain setup. Smart!

I thought the same at first and considered getting different feet for it.. But then I felt the insane amount of air coming through the rad It sits about 1/2" off the table.

Thanks! The fill port was a last minute idea and I sent the left panel back to have the hole cut for it. I just couldn't deal with a hose hanging off the Y fitting, it didn't look right.. not to mention it makes it a whole lot easier to fill and drain with out having to take anything a part!

I would definitely use gpu waterblock, use whole potential of your radiators.

I'm leaning towards it. No point in investing the money on a block for the 4890 though, i've had that card for a good 16 months now. Just patiently waiting around for the ATI cards to come out.

You can always get gpu only block (not full cover).

[ScottyPimpin]

nah i'd rather get a full block.. really need the barbs on the side of the card to tie it into the loop and keep it looking clean.

[BlueAqua]

Very cool. That Y fitting looks awesome there, and the black coolant/clear tubes looks great.

What hose clamps are those? Koolance?

[ScottyPimpin]

Thanks for all the compliments everyone!

I accidently posted one of the pics twice in the OP leaving out the pic of the left side lit up. The 2nd pics with the lights on is now the left side and not the front twice.

[ChaosAD]

I would prefer using black tubes rather than black coolant. Otherwise graet job you did there

[ScottyPimpin]

Thanks again everyone for the compliments. I'll post up some new pics when I get a gpu on water

[Jokester_wild]

nice, I also have a waterbox kicking around. nice units. Hows your temps with that setup ?

CPU only loop atm.. i7 920 @ 4.1ghz 1.28v idles around 38c and 58c load.

I have 10 snakes in the apartment so I keep ambient temps at 74-75f which is a factor also.

Looking to add the gpu into the loop but i'm holding off for the next gen cards.

[ScottyPimpin]

Updated the OP with new pics, specs etc.. check it out!!

[Utnorris]

Very nice!! Very clean!!

[ScottyPimpin]

This was an old build of mine, just updated the thread with the final pics of it.

RIP Danger Den.
