That's cool
The cable management is just sex on a stick. Near zero overlapping, and smart routing.

Thanks for all the replies,
spend a few hours getting all the cable work done.
VGA Block is getting ordered in a few days, so will post back when that is done
@Jono It is a triple rad with AMD CPU for now, just didnt have the cash to get the VGA at that time. but do now
yeah
i need to buy about another 3 or 4 extension pieces just to get the fitting to be able to work with the extra fan
i will have to buy some more fans before i can add some more fans on the roof

that's a m4a89gtd-pro motherboard, by running the gpu in the top slot, it becomes x8 not x16...
so your losing a very, but still losing performance.

Coorect. He should use the blue pcie slot for x16. Normally it is the top slot who is x16, but not on this board. so i understand why he made that minor mistake.

Please can you tell me what you used to mount the ssd I would really appreciate it.

please, 8x and 16x are practically the same ! i have seen tests done by LinusTechTips that gain you 1fps by using 16x. and i prefer it in the 8x slot, so it really does not matter it all. Asus made the error of having the 16x slot on the bottom, it should be on the top ! but meh, you fella's are correct. and i did know that it was in the 8x slot. but for the 1fps difference. i personally am not to worried

And so my shipment arrives ! just the sleeving left to arrive, and i will be buying a Phenom 980
Not really bothered for a build log, so here are pictures of me doing some bleeding of my rig, all is well ! no air bubbles, leaks. great water flow. Using Distilled water, Mayhems biocide, and Mayhems Red Dye. 6 drops i think ! it really is concentrated.
Mayhems Dye should be a product that ComputerLounge should import, way better than feser products as reviews have told me !
Yeah, so even with Distilled Water i even managed to get some Gunk ](*,)
But here is my beauty
I managed to be clever and mount my old fan controller on the back, so now its a lot easier to manage my fans

as you can see, i started this thread about half a year ago, so i was not going to use it anymore, but upwards a bit. some people came and brought the thread back to life ! the other thread was the one i was only going to use, until this one got back alive again. so i just had to post on this one too. i will most definitely not be using the other thread but be using this one for future pictures. the other one was really only to show my modding, and the pics of my pc coming to life. this one will have the finished rig on it
