    Damn dude, I must say that is the sexiest case I have EVER seen. I have seen a lot of cases, but god that is a BEAUTY! I love the blue touches and the very nice, and professional looking front of the case. Great work and I hope the dual loops work out for you!

    Absolutely astonishing :jawdrop: It's too beautiful; once I finish my project I think I’ll pay someone like yourself to do my others, a piece of heritage :hip:
    There's not a chance in hell CPC will turn that away, judging by this month's feature I get the feeling they're crying out for better rigs. Looks like we've another mod god on Bit-Tech :clap:
    Considered moving back to Longfram? I need to this thing in person :hehe:

    Dood! Awesome job. You really made a good choice in the loop changes. The way all the hoses are routed, I don't think it could be done any better!!!

    That is beautiful...

    How are your temps now, by the way? Well, I suppose that will be more relevant once you get the new FX55...

    And did you mirror the plexi before or after you cut it?

    Temps are at 28 idle to 34 full load on the CPU and the GPUs run at 52 idle 56 full load. TBH though I'm not sure that the MOBO temp monitoring is that great - I'm starting to think it's the deltas (chage) that are more important. Yeah can't wait to get the FX-55 in there! :D

    I Cut the Plexi and sanded / glassed the sides then applied the mirror foil.

    Dammit! I was considering that waterblock and was hoping it would perform well, and now that you have one it's yet another thing I want to use that's just like your rig. GET OUT OF MY HEAD!

    Good news

    As I suspected the FX-55 was faulty and I got an email today to say a replacement is in the post. :D Strangely the email apologised that the older type which I had is no longer available so they are sending me the san diego core version :D :D :D NO APOLOGY NEEDED :thumb: So OCUK are not as difficult as some people feared, they've dealt with me very fairly.

    Now all I need is the time to fit it and start some benchmarking :hehe:

    Sad thing is even with this great rig my Counter Strike stats are still appalling :eeek: Still, it looks lush! :naughty:
