Welcome to my build log
The project was completed in June and July 2013, it was one of the first builds in the world (not counting factory/demo builds) with custom water cooling loop in Corsair Carbide Series Air 540.
At some point I was planing to change a few things (cable sleeving, the color of the case), but as I became a father
I had to slow down on my PC/modding hobby. I will be back, but most probably it will be completely new build.
Currently I have my HW in Fractal Design R4 case (all air cooled), water cooling parts waiting patiently for comeback
