    There is still quite a list to do:
    -Mount the frame inside of the case.
    -Testfit the distro + cable management plate.(When its done at the the CNC Guy)
    - Loop prep (Flush rads, mount gpu block, delid cpu)
    - Make loop (all the beding stuff and mounting)
    - Testloop (EK kit)
    - Modify cables to lenght.
    - Fill loop and do a nother leak test.
    - Setup system fully (software)
    - Make photo's and video.
    - Edit video.

    And then I'm about done :)

    Holy..!

    I totally forgot that you are also going to use the case :D
    I say, turn this into a scratch build :D It's awesome even on its own.

    Well I could do that that but then some of the designed stuff will not fit. When I look back at the design now there that might have been a smart thing to do :)

    Do you have to take the rads off to get the GPU out?

    With the aircooler I needed to take off one rad to mount it. When its going single slot with a waterblock that shouldnt be needed anymore :) In this case that was fine because it is Just a test fit and getting the system ready for a first boot and install all the software before the blocks go on.

    Yeah, I think it can also be made to look and work amazing on its own. I am starting to see how it would look finished though. It would be ****ing AWESOME!

    I guess I'm gonna finish this build the designed way and think about a stand alone version of the frame for a next one :)

    New update after I had some extra time during the weekend.
    The frame is mounted inside the case and it fits perfect :)

    Next up is installing the blocks for the cpu and gpu and start working on the loop :)

    It looks ****ing amazing! Those angles kind of remind me of a theater or home theater setup, with the screen in the middle and speakers on the side, angled inwards :D

    And the first testfit with all the block inside the frame. That is mounted to the case after 4 hours of tweaking stuff :worried:

    Oh, man. You still have to sneak the wires in too.
    While getting a foot or a cat in the shot does make you an official BT modder, I think you put way too much work into it. :lol:

    Splendid, awesome: the idea, the3D renders, the case, your work and the pictures: absolutely flawless and beautiful, you're really talented :wallbash:
    I also spotted out a drooling collection of GPU's on the shelf :grin:

    This was a testfit with all the blocks installed. Lets keep it at snug for the gpu with only 1 mm clearance between the end of the card and the new frame :worried:.
    The hardware has to come out at least 2 more time before the final install :lol:. Next big step would be the distro with buildin cable managment. But is a project on its own with 18 custom parts that need to be milled :) . Only found out about the foot in shot after I was done with the photo's, it was all good that angle tho ;)
    After all the hours of designing in CAD I don't mind putting all the hours in, I'm just realy happy that most parts fit like planned :)
