[font=Verdana, sans-serif, FreeSans]I still have to do a few things, the remaining cables need sleeved. I may swap out the white sleeving for more subtle colour also. The rear cables behind the motherboard tray need a proper tidy up as I have basically just crammed them in with the side panel... I also plan to fit a Scythe Kaze master flat fan controller and upgrade the rear exhaust to a 140mm fan again in black and red.[/font]​

Are you running one of the tubes from the rad around the back of the mobo tray?

Hey. Yep I am indeed works just fine. I was worried about it being pinched by the back panel but there is just enough clearance for it. I wasn't too keen on any of the other routing options I tried so that turned out to be the simplest solution.

looks really nice dude and the specs are beastly

 

[WillSK]

A thing of absolutely beauty. Congrats on this build mate

 

[Firat]

Nice build mate!

 

[Kyze]

Those braided cables with the UV looks PIMP!

 

[Polo]

Really nice rig, i like the way the LED's reflect on the tray above the psu, the res inside is a nice touch as i couldn't make up my mind whether it should be inside or use a dual bay and opted for the latter, i lke the braided cables and the fact you chose to do them yourself kudo's, although i can understand why many choose braided extensions, after seeing how this looks i will be buying compression fittings, as far as aesthetics go this looks the buisness...First custom water loop, i really like it.. thanks for sharing.
