Wow, I must say I am very impressed by all of this. That ram is pron by the way, so please refrain from posting it here.

Awesome idea for the leakage! Nice build, great documentation, and tasty sandwich. Rep+ nice job man.

EDIT: Will you be adding colored coolant, or are you keeping it the way it is now. I like it how it is, all these fluorescent greens are ugly.

Great build. I am curious however, do they make waterproof cold cathodes? If so, or if someone gets around to it in the future, a single cathode the length of the reservoir fixed in the center of the res would look outstanding with uv additive in the coolant mixture.
