I like it youl have to get that 570 on water !! Its kind of nice to see somoeone with a build thats not too monochromatic , green goo in the res orange fans blue UV tubing. Nice keyboard too ..

What fans are those

I was just going to comment on that. Also do the lower fans on your 360 have 2 screws in each, or just 1?

My fans on the 360 alphacool xt45 rad are Cooler Master 120mm SUF-S12-EO, $3.50/piece from cwc ^^ they're actually pretty decent, 1220 rpm, 23 db, 1.56 static pressure.

I'm actually planning on bitfenix orange single braided sleeved ATX/EPS/PCIE Extensions. Orange ATX, and then one orange/one black EPS/PCIE extension.

Then primo flex clear tubing with meyhem gigabyte orange coolant. Another 240 rad on bottom or front.

The mcp35x with optional res actually works 10x+ better mounted horizontally like that then it did vertical. At least in terms of getting the air out and whatnot, took like an hour. The first time in the storm sniper when it was mounted vertically it took days to bleed even with tilting and such, and even then the foam would hold bubbles. No foam/mesh and horizontal works much better.

Have a 90 degree koolance fitting on the top of the res, and currently a 45 degree on the pump outlet with the tubing going behind the mobo try to come up where the eps cables does to go into the res. when I get the bottom rad I'll move the pump/res up.

Ive been debating putting the 570 underwater, but it's not breaking 66 C @ 850/1700/4050 and it's barely a year old. I'm thinking it'd make more sense to wait for the 7 series... It's that or wc this 570 and then buy another.. I'm planning on not having to upgrade for 4-5 years once I get this 990X soon, other than the gpu..

EDIT: the fans on bottom and top only have 2 screws each currently as the alphacool rad only came with enough screws to mount one side with fans with 30mm screws, I need to get more, but it works fine for now.

EDIT2: the tubing is currently dangerden's UV Black, I thought it would turn out differently originally but ya, no lol. The coolant is thermaltake's bigwater coolant. I work for a pc repair/e-waste recycler so we had it here for free..

hey all. a literal s*** ton of pics coming on my log

how would I create a thumbnail so the pics are small but when you click them they're big?

I use imagevenue to create clickable thumbnails, crazy. Used it for years and years.

I'd like the rear fan to be an intake as well, it doesn't seem like it does much good set as exhaust. Anyone know a way to have it as an intake without it being noisy? Without cutting the case of course.

^^ +REP man ^^
Thanks so much. Pics uploading now, all 55 of them. and more on the way when my PSU comes back. I'll put a teaser here for now though







all logs need the dog lol I love him SOOOOOO much

No problem, man. I've used it to upload (and share) at least three-quarters of a million pics over the years (don't ask....or do....but still). Couldn't agree more about the pooch. Love me some pets.

I have tried a 140mm fan gasket/silencer. I took it out and set it back to exhaust because I thought the buzzing was coming from that fan, but come to find out it was one of the top fans that was plugged into the controller. My other idea is that I have a clear 120 to 140 fan converter I may try to see if spacing it out from the grill quiets it down. This sentry mix makin my fn140's buzz is my new big annoyance. Kind of want to send it back by don't feel like dealing with shipping, or digging the box out of the garbage.
