Sadly that long hose ruins the rig.....

You could have done it much better than that :/

i tried a lot of different but i think that was the best one if i had water blocks on graphics card it would have been a lot nicer but that will come on the next graphics card i buy

please tell me how i could have done it

I agree with Tom on that one (DUH!). I could understand that long hoze if you were planning to watercool your GPUs in the near future, but as it stands now it just ruins it =(

so if i run it like in my old rig http://forum.overclock3d.net/showthread.php?t=40920 just as short as possible instead of trying to hide it?

Heck...the 360 in the top by itself should be rad enough to cool the board and CPU...just drop the 240 all together till you add the GPUs to the loop. Run from the board back the res.

This...

Although as you say you're going to get a new GPU at some point and water cool that, it probably isn't worth the effort to drain the loop just for temporary aesthetics.

rig looks nice! As far as the long tubing is concerned, if it bugs you than get some more fittings and make an L-bend so the the tube can run down the side of the cards near the res and through the grommet next to the one your pci-e cables are coming through.

I dig it, nice job!

Very nice build, how do you find the temperatures on those three cards running so close together, any issues there?

do you run this over tri-monitors, with any games such as BF3? what temps do you get when under load, from your graphics card?
