power supply cover

My cards stay very cool when gaming they never reach 45c at any point,so I am happy with the parallel set up.I was a huge non believer of this type of set up,just couldn't really understand how the water flow gets to both cards.When I bought the blocks and saw that Swiftech recommended parallel instead of serial I trusted they know what they are talking about.I am a believer now and to each his own.

Looks Good - but please tidy up your watercooling loops

It looks OK but as above The_Protocol's suggestion would look better.

Yeap and i would mount a fan inside with ventelation holes. blowing air upwards.
overall a good idea chum.
nice tidy cover..
have you tried the "not bouncing back and forth" method?
you got an ace for the machine, but the hose routing really
degrades it, dude. it should be done in half the hose you
have there. i doubt your appz would notice a 1°-3° increase
if thats what would happen.

Just so you know parralel loops are not always recommended as the water does not move around very much compared to series.
I have drawn up a rough idea of how your loop should/could look. Literally 2 minutes on ms paint
Here is a link regarding the differences between series and parrallel loops for gpus too

sorry but ur link just shows the fool doesnt know how to bleed the cards and that parrallel has better flow
in truth it doesnt matter if on same card or the other. As long as its not on the same port on the block. i run mine in parrallel in the front port top card out the rear port card. 2c difference in temps and neither go over 50c on long gaming sessions unlocked and overclocked cards. 880 core 1425 mem at 1295 volts.
btw case is looking better but the empyiness makes it look well empty lol
Don't really understand what you are getting at with back and forth comment. These are 2 independent loops from the same res,so going back and forth is the only way to route the tubing.I just bought this dual split bay res and 2 brand new mcp350 pumps that's why its a dual loop set up.I have heard guys being anal about cable management but never tubing management.
res - 360 rad - cpu - res 1 st loop
res - 240 rad - gpu's - res 2nd loop
This is my res with 2 mcp 350 pumps attached to the bottom.I am happy with my dual loop setup it works for me appreciate the suggestions.

the redo of the tubes is much cleaner and very nice it almost looks as if it were one loop. The new tubing or the color makes it look much nicer and are you really getting those temps off both cards with a 240? thats pretty nice
