next step just waiting! 01/12/13
Build ready 16/11/2013
The first 4 pictures are without the fans on the 240 RAD.
New case, fans and lights 14/11/2013
time for upgrades. 18/10/2013
So lets start with the cooling. A 360 x45 and a EK 5,1/2 inch water reservoir som 90 degrees fittings with my existing watercooling. Switched tubing from 10mm ID 13mm OD to 10mm ID 14mm OD for better compression and some tighter fits. Altso a new GPU the ASUS Geforce GTX 770 2GB wich i am looking to cool with a waterblock later on. (the GTX 780 was a bit to pricy in my opinion.) other things i have done is switch my plextor hardrive to the same Kingston above and run them in raid with a popping 880MB read and 560MB write. some new benchmark results are comming asap when ive tested all of this.
Under Construction 16.05.2013
The old R4 with the EK beginner kit.
Finally done just some small air bubbles left, made a new bracket for the reservoir of a steel plate with 3 holes so I could mount it on my radiator. This set was realy easy to set up and the instructions was quite good. Getting a waterblock for my GPU when i change my RadeonHD 7850 cards. and have to add a 120mm rad in the rear. but that would be in the near future the two HD 7850 goes a long way in this time and date.
