Default Redid my Loop, MUCH nicer and easier to manage!
http://img168.imageshack.us/img168/4512/0000006wb7.jpg

I got tired of the Lowes tubing. It was much too rigid and hard to maneuver so I got some 7/16 masterkleer to replace it. I ditched the cold cathodes and also got better fans for my rad. Mounted the rad box and will tidy the rest up later.

Here's the original setup threads:

thanks!

I planned on redoing it, I just let it run longer than expected. I'm gonna redo this one to add my chipset cooler and maybe the Koolance PCI pass through also. I have a Dtek fuzion waiting here as well!

It still looks way to busy using 1/2" ID tubing. I'm running 3/8" ID tubing with room to view vs. room to spare.

Are you mounting the radbox on the rear of the case too?

radbox goes on the side. I left the lines a little long on purpose as I still have some tweaking to do for my chipset cooler and Dtek when they go in.

No idea, I changed so many things it's hard to say. I went to a higher flowing fan and also changed CPU's.

Well, so far so good! Max temp is 54C full load in prime with my E8500 @ 4.25GHz!! I think these new fans helped the most.

All I can say is, I like this board and CHIP! Chip is on loan for testing purposes.
