EK Rampage 5 Extreme and GTX980 Waterblocks

This is my first full upgrade in many years. Before ASUS Maximus Formula had an X38, Intel Q6600 and Corsair Dominator DDR2. Now, after many months of waiting, I managed to buy my new PC based on a Rampage Extreme V.

My new rig, as you can see has the ASUS Rampage V Extreme, Intel i7-5820k, Corsair Vengeance DDR4 2800mhz, ASUS DirectCU II R9 290X GPU, Corsair Hydro H110i, Corsair 750D Case, Corsair AX860i PSU, Samsung 840 evo, two WD HDD. Right on the way two Corsair SP120 and three Corsair AF140 fans as well as NZXT lights.

I'm planning to build my first custom water cooling loop for this rig, with EKWB parts (cpu and gpu water blocks, pump, fittings and reservoir) and some Alphacool (radiators), because I saw many videos that talked about how good they are and I do not want to take risk with other brands.

Last but not least, I want to say thank you to this forum. I do not wrote a lot before, but i can assure you that I read many post and that helped me a lot deciding the final parts for my rig, as well as the videos from OC3D.

Again greetings to all and thank you very much!

Ttl!

First, let me say I am a long time lurker on the forums.. finally signed up today :) I really really enjoy your videos and reviews and have been watching them for years now. (along with following on Facebook and Twitter)

New X99 build for me, I am wanting to take the full water cooling plunge! I have previously only done CPU / GPU blocks.. I am very interested in trying mobo / CPU/ GPU and would love to win this (I also have a 980!) my current plan is to hard line.. I just got in all of my fittings and tubes ! Now all I need is blocks! :D

thanks!!

Youve bagged yourself the Rampage Blocks fella


Hey TTL long time viewer first time contestant. I want to enter the contest for the 980 waterblock. I'm looking to build a custom water-cooling loop for the first time and want to go old school with a crazy UV water cooling loop. I had just replaced my 670 a little bit ago after it went bad with a 970. I have trip monitors and having all the crazy stuff with the 970 go on, I decided to switch out for the 980. This is my first time getting the high-end card from nvidia, so this would be an amazing part for the rig and would go great with the 4930k system. I'm also hoping to put my gamer tag in UV vinyl or paint on the back of the card so it will light up in the case with the UV light on and the surface of that card is perfect also I could fill the symbol in the lower right with UV color as well to get it to illuminate in the case as well. Please please please think of me when you select your winner I would appreciate it and pics will be coming when I get the card on friday thank you so much for your consideration!

urm, tom i think you managed to pick the one guy who didnt actually want to enter :p
 
Kaapstad needs the money/save some cash anyway considering his godlike builds must cost more than most entries combined ;)
