thats pretty good:) i would'nt complain at those temps
OK so after what feels like a year. I finally got to squeeze a few hours in to spend with the rig.
I drained, flushed and refilled my system and changed from red to blue. I felt the red looked more pink than anything and I wasn't happy so blue it is! also I got the sunbeam rheobus and took off the faceplate and replaced it with the brushed aluminum "blank" that came with my case per Clocker's suggestion. I think it looks great and WAY easy to do drill a few 1/4" holes for the LED's and a few 3/8" holes for the controllers. I also added a small switch in it as well for my UV lights that I wired together to use 1 switch. Here are some pics of it :)
Before I refilled my system I had to switch the tubes on the waterblock because the apogee GTZ has a directional flow to it and I had the input on the output barb.
The downside was that I had to move my HDD's down to the basement area of the case but even that wasn't so bad, less visible wires and Now there are 4 san ace fans across and it looks cool. Almost all the fans are San ace now and the ones that arent....will be soon :)
I used some black poster board in a few spots to cover up and give a more finished look to anything I felt needed it. I just did it quickly and I am going to re do it with better cuts when I get a chance.

I changed the "drainport" from the red anodized to a delrin one to avoid corrosion

Looks nice.
Thanks so much man
aye it does:) i would be very happy with it, soooooooo the big question now is, is it finished?
I have to put the Lan Li casters on and I AM finished....I think. Until all the new toys come out in Jan/Feb then we'll see.
lol figured you would say 'i think', well im glad that you've stopped cos i bet your wallet and wife are:p
eh I do well enough that I can save up for the toys without it impacting the wife or kids at all. It's my hobby and it beats me going to the bar everyday :O
Here is the Youtube vid BTW
