Without it, it wont cool correctly. You might want to consider taking the old shroud and cutting it to fit the block, so that the fan has a way to direct the flow correctly.

Good to hear. Im really likin the way this is coming together. The orange tubing is the color Im lloking for in fluid. Im just not sure if I want to deal with the effects dying have on a loop. Ill just settle with the anti kink for the moment. Im thinking about some orange xiggy's as well. I have a Dark knight, so i know how good their fans are. I just wish they made some 38mm fans.

Yes the xiggy fans are great, I have them on my Rad atm, and they perform very well with shrouds etc, but there is a small amount of motor noise, but you get used to it after a while.

As for dye in the loop etc, I used Orange food colouring and a little PT_nuke from Chilled PC. It looks crimson red in the res which matches the Tracers LED's so I think that is a winner in that sense, and as the tubing is dyed anyway, no off chance of stained tubing etc.

It is all up and running, been so busy get Catalysts and drivers etc etc on and some light gaming that I forgot to take more pictures and some screenies of deltas/temps. I will do that all tomorrow, no parents at home today, so gaming for me! )
