psu side, need to finish cable management but, waiting sleeving all my cable first







this is where i am now

a lot job need to be done,



EDIT: July 20 21012

UPDATE!

i do some change to my setup

what i do
add a third HD7970
change G.Skill Ram by Corsair Dominator GT ram
connected GPU in parallele
redo my pump /reservoir setup
power supply cable sleeving
changed fan for Corsair SP120
and other small little thing

still need to do
waiting and installing missing fan
cable management
make a Raid 0 with bootable drive
order a USB3.0 kit from caselabs and im thinking for pedestal
and other little thing

what i have with this update

more stability with new ram

better temps, around 8C cooler than before
CPU at stock setting (fan at 70% rpm)
Idle: 27, Full: 53
GPU
Idle:35, Full: 45

better flow rate and yes with a third GPU
before 0.95 GPM
now : 1.3 GPM
im very suprise by the results and the gain


New ram installed
Corsair Dominator GT 2133 CL9






new gift at my door, new XFX HD7970 Core Black OC edition water block installed on third HD7970




i will change all fan in my rig
i dont like the temp, im sure, im able to have better temp with 3 x 360 rad
i will install all Corsair SP120 High performance edition and all rad in push and pull
now with 3.2 of static pressur for each fan, they will do the job


Cable sleeving done, waiting for missing fans to do the cable management


my trifire setup, i will do some test just for sure i have more power under the hood

Thanks


i really like these fans

but you need a fan controller

at 100% speed they are too loud

but a 70% and lower they are perfect

i have a great temp with these

before, all my fan was Bitfenix specter pro led and they are quiet but my temp was a couple of C higher

thanks

but i have some update to do
pedestal, move rad to bottom (in pedestal)
new motherboard and cpu, (my rampage is on rma process)
asus maximus v formula + i7-3770k
and other little thing

i will post pics

Hi
after a long time to think , i finally ad an update of my little red monster

but this time i take my time to take pictures but they are not perfect
i do my best with what i have, a old Canon Powershot S3


now this is the results, more update still to come

thanks for any comments

yes
i had trouble with my rampage
RMA with asus and build a server with it

this rig is for gaming 90% of time, at the end , I7-3770k is little bit faster than a i7-3930k for gaming
and less radiator
3 x ex360 in push/pull configuration

now in pedestal, 2 x ex360 in push/pull config

but i have only 2 GPU now, in my future upgrade, i will return to 3 GPU and i will add another rad for sure

i think for a Maximus V Etreme, i still have my hd7970, and install a RX360 on front of the case
