Just contacted Gene (the guy who makes the Monsoons) and he will be sending me a pack (maybe more, he didn't say) of angles for my build. He said about 20 days.
The reason I say maybe more is because he only asked what size I wanted and what color, but not 45 or 90 degrees, and when I asked if 45s were in the works also, he said both. But I never specified what I wanted so we'll see. Pretty cool idea they had actually for the angles. unlike BP fittings, these angles are being made in various tube sizes to match the OF of the monsoon fittings that we have, so there wont be a bulky compression at the top of an angled fitting, it'll be a smooth line throughout
Awesome news! Id love to get those instead of the BP fittings that cost like 40 bucks for two.. hopefully theyre cheaper.. sad-smiley-002.gif

yeah, I believe he said for a 6 pack theyd be about $1 more per fitting, so like $42 for a 6 pack or so.
I'd imagine 8-9 per fitting, but when BP rotaries are $12-13 per, anything is better haha

Alright everyone. I am now home since friday and am waiting on a few items so I can get this show on the road. I need a couple more angled fittings and an SLI connector, and a couple of fans. Good to go from there.

ALSO, I tried my hand at sleeving yesterday. I know its only SATA cables, but I've never sleeved before, and I think it turned out alright...

MOAR PICS!!!!

I have all of my gear (new MB included) installed into the system as a test fit. I still need to run the tubing again, since I changed the loop design, but I have some pics of what you can expect thumb.gif

448


I got myself red socket screws to match the MB. A little unnecessary, but I like them biggrin.gif

448

448


This may look a little weird, but It allows me to gain clearance to feed tubing to the res. Check the first pic and you may be able to get it from that
448


sorry for the crap phone pic. This is a rotary 45 adapter thats going to feed tubing through a grommet to a 240 rad mounted vertically in the front of the case
448


New mounting location for my res, which will feed to my pump, mounted on the case wall directly below it.
700


Quick preview of the custom cables installed into the case. I'm going to somehow tie up the 24 pin so it only blocks the top black cap of the res, and not the helices themselves
448

Enjoy everyone!

Looking good man!

Was wondering if you tried your Mix fan controller yet. I had an issue with mine causing my Yate Loons to make a loud buzzing humming sound. It is off for RMA right now but I have heard others having the same issue so was just curious about your experience with it.

I've heard that too. I'm going to test it tomorrow. Or at least planning to. I'm going to rangers game 5 so I only have the daytime to build.

It might be good to route the 24pin through the cable grommet next to the motherboard, that way it won't block any of that glorious reservoir. The sleeving looks pretty great imho. thumb.gif

Funny you should say that. I was actually going to spend another $40+ to send them to lutro0 and have him replace the gray with black because I didn't think it would match. But I don't try them until now and I agree they look great!!!
I would change the routing of the 24 but unfortunately the grommets are both offset from the motherboard header. So it would be an awkward angle to route it like that. Also, I want as much cable to show as possible. I'll play with it and put multiple options and ask for opinions though. I bought the sleeved ax1200 cable set in red as well. I will put a pic tomorrow but I'm also sleeving my pump myself and I tried it today. Came out alright I think.
