350D Acrylic Tubing Build

[TheUnkn0wn]

350D - COMPLETED

As my first water build I thought I'd push the limits of the 350D yet keep it clean at the same time. I've had to mount my hard drives vertically to make room for the 60mm front rad. I've also cut a hole in the rear 120mm fan mesh to make room for the fill/drain port.

- 16GB 2400MHz RAM

So what tubing and fittings are you using?

The primochill ghost compression fittings look sweet for their 10/13 rigid tubing and mean the ends don't have to be perfectly cut and chamfered. Are you using the EK fittings which just slot together for the entire build?

Yep, EK fittings, they have a double O-rings so they should be fine.

Updated.

Installed pipes (pain...), filled loop (bigger pain, since I had to fill it from the bottom).

If anyone has any questions on building a 350D water loop, just ask.

That is shweeet, those EK nickel/plexi blocks are just pr0n, I especially like how the cpu bracket thumbscrews have the same knurl as the pipe fittings. Looks super clean I hope there's gonna be a rig gallery
