    Thanks guys :)

    I received the last bits for the WC loop yesterday and with those I've finished the hard tube part of the loop. (everything above the midplate.) The tubing is e22 Ultraclear.

    More soon after the loop is complete

    Cheer skyrip, your build is very cool too, love the custom spinner reservoir :)

    Thanks hero1

    Glad you found it anyway! Thanks :)

    Since the standard crossfire cover looks like **** A small cover was needed, I've cut it from 1mm aluminum and stuck it to the bridge with doublesided tape, simple but effective

    With all parts of the case finally done, I've installed everything and it's now really close to finishing the build, here's how the case looks atm

    The copper rods to the EPS connector are sleeved with Paracord
    [​IMG]

    The GPU backplates and the slot covers were painted white, the crossfire bridge is now the same shiny red as the rest if the parts

    This is how it looks below the midplate. I got 2 90degree fittings in backorder, once I have those I can complete the loop, it's now missing the piece between the exit from the cpu block (below the midplate) back to the reservoir.
    [​IMG]

    This is how the copper rods on the gpu come around the mobotray, from here I'll connect wiring going to the psu

    Still some sleeving to do

    Thanks guys :)

    Today I finally received the last parts, 2 fittings, a 12v splitter for the lightning and pump and 2 liters of EK-Bloodred

    So when I got home from work I completed the loop and connected the leds in the front and the ledstrip in the top. After that I filled the loop which was quite an adventure because the pump/res combo is very hard to reach now all the tubing and wiring is hooked up.

    Voted earlier - I love this!

    Just a question, though: how do you access the I/O?

    Thanks Ace :)

    Wasn't really sure about red myself but with the loop filled it really doesn't look bad at all :)
    Thanks for the vote :) The I/O hard to reach, but it can be accessed after the left sidepanel is removed. I'll have to use 90 degree adapters on the ports and then I can lead the wiring out the backside.

    thanks hero!
