Haha that's good to know! Got to do a little modding to the brackets and case to get it to fit.

I bought two of these because for $7, why not. First of all, these definitely move more air than the fans that came with my Cooler Master case. Furthermore, they move more air than my Cooler Master...

I replaced a loud fan in my Cooler Master Elite 430 with this. The other fan moved about the same amount of air with a far louder, higher RPM (I assume) device. This fan has a cool-looking metal...

Rest of the parts (except coolant, microcenter probably has it out of stock so I ordered from frozencpu):
Fittings:

Reservoir:



Pump:


CPU Block:



Cut out the top mesh:


240mm radiator:


This radiator will clear the ram but not the 8 pin cpu power. But I believe if I cut off the side/corner I can make it work:



What do you guys think?

nice looking stuff so far
... cant wait to see how it comes together
... one thing you should note is that when you start running your system with that coolant, it will flush out all the plasticizer in the tubing... after about week 1 or 2 of running it, i would prain the system, clean your blocks (use a soft bristle toothbrush and DI water) and keep the coolant in a (very) clean bucket or container... dont wash out teh tubes as it will make more plasticizer for quicker, put loop back together and your good to go

after a week? yes... after 6 months? probably not... the reason i say to re use the coolent after a week is that your blocks will act like filters for all the stuff in it and from the tubing... however, it will lose its effectiveness after a wile... im not realy sure how to explain it better as i dont have 3+ hours to type out everything on it
