Amazing build, Treble20. I have some questions for ya:
1. Which screws did you use for the Radiator/Mobo? The color combo is simply amazing.
2. What size reservoir are you running?
3. Did you have to re-drill the roof or front to the the tubing nozzles to line up like that?
4. Is the 540 pre-drilled for 140mm radiator spacing on front and/or top, or only 120mm? The corsair site isn't very clear about that.
Thanks for your answers and once again, this is one of my favorite builds I've seen!
Hey Dude thanks for the feedback..
1, The are 3m/4m with a torx head screws just with a C washer on them you can find the at most RC stockiest and in different colours.
2,The Alphacool 250 x 50 mm res more then plenty for what I need and 1 litre of fluid fill's the system with some spare.
3, No mate it took a little shuffling but it is secured with no extra drilling. Was lucky It lined up nice like that.
4, Yes dude. it is pre drilled for use with 120 and 140 out of the box ( at least my version was I dnt know if corsair have revised it at all.
That's pretty mental.
Personally for me the blue coolant could have been close to the colour accents on the motherboard but it might just be the lighting of the photos.
For me Looking at it mate it is pretty close ( my eyes are not the best at colour comparisons) but I am fine with it. For me it was matching up the blues, Ram lights,mouse mat, light shade on g-19 m65 mouse,Mobo accents Water block lights and fluid and c washers getting it as close as I could and Mayhems was just like that out of the bottle.
Post Xmas when I have a play I may with clear fluid and dye's to get something more suited. I got some cable comb's from E22 I want to try out and Plan to try and resleeve my original PSU cable set for more of a complete finish.
If the cable combs do not work out then I will cable sew them like I did on teh foundation build as that is so much neater ( takes a while to do and make sure they are all lined up).
Other then that Its nice to see my Rig still getting interest. Yellow beard posted it on the corsair blog and I have sent pics to a few other company's that have components in it.
It is a shame that Before the build I contacted corsair and asked if they was going to release a white one and was told a Definite NO ! and now they are releasing/released one is abit of a kick in the balls, But oh well feedback on mine is still 99% positive.
