Can i ask why you went from 1/2" ID to 3/8" ID tubing?

Looking good!

That's what happens when you buy the 3/8" tubing first then the pump later and realize that the pump only has 1/2" tubing. Oh well. It' works like a charm though. :P Just had to get two 1/2" compression fittings.

I'll upload my pics of the initial bootup later today.

Tubing is cheap. It will make a nice upgrade later on.

Another option if you want to stick with 3/8in tubing, get the EK D5 X-Top V2 for the pump and put on whatever size fittings you want. It also gives you more options with the pump too because you can either have the output out the top or out the front next to the inlet. I bought one for my rig (when I get to that point) so I can have more flexibility with my pump location options.

I haven't had a chance to set up everything perfectly but here's what it looks like installed:



Res and GTX 295 Hydro Copper:



Heatkiller 3.0:



I have a few things left to finish. I need to paint the card reader/floppy drive, create my own floppy cable, paint the front of the DVD Drive and Fan Controller, and mod the components tray to add the mesh instead of that finger insert thing.


I also hate the back plate for the RIIE. I don't think there's much I can do about it though.


I also need to cut the hole out a little more just in case to prevent shorting. I have a piece of electrical tape right there now.


Last couple things will be cable management (including running the temperature sensors and fan controller lines) and adding my flair (i.e. my UV and Green cathodes).


I'll keep everyone updated as it progresses!

No, everything is 3/8" tubing and compression fittings except for the two coming out of the pump. I bought all the 3/8" tubing and fittings before the pump but I just bought a couple 1/2" compressions and used the leftovers for the Hydro Copper card instead of EVGA's barbs.

Wow! That looks so bare compared to mine! Check out this mess I'm hiding behind my MB tray! The inside is all tidy though.
