Hey all , got somewhat of a mod going. I picked up a corsair 750d as it somewhat smaller than my mamoth 900d, that being said I wanted to do a red black white theme, all internally water cooled with existing parts. I've got a bunch of pictures will post up after work. Just waiting on a 280 rad for the front and im ready to Fill

Painted the sli bridge cable time .. starting to get ideas of tubing routes chopped a hd cage so i could mount a acrylic plate for the pump/res combos cable management found position for pump/res combos tight fit where i am currently waiting on slim 280 rad for the front and my fans and uv lighting. Plan is to run Meyheims uv coolant dual colors as well stay tuned.

not as of yet ran outta money haha, but i do have a updated parts list. But now i am reading the the silverstone ap fans dont do that well for rad setups.. i may still try as the front rad will be really thin, which may make it easier for those fans to move that channel of air through the rad. anyway here are the parts in this odd job build hehe Cpu: intel i7930 @ 4.5ghz Ram: Corsair dominator gt 1600mhz 16gb Motherboard: Evga X58 Sle Le Video: Sli Evga Gtx 780 3gb dual bios Psu: Evga 1300wat Hd's: x3 intel 520 series 120 gb x1 samsung 840 250 gb x1 wd caviar black 1tb back up drive Sound: Creative fatlity recon 3d case: Corsair 750d pumpr/res: x2 EK-DCP 4.0 cpu block: xspc raystorm gpu blocks: ek thermosphere ram block: Alphacool d-ram plexi and copper primochill hardline fittings bitspower rotary fittings monsoon hardline tubing fans: x4 silverstone ap141 two in front in push for rad one in rear for exhaust x3 Corsair sp 120mm in push out the top Radiators: Xspc 360 ax cpu loop black ice gts280 or alphacool nexxos st30 not sure yet coolant: meyhems x1 uv red meyhems x1 uv clear

Yup very nice. I'm working on a 4 X58 system monster and running a 930, 970, 5590, and I think it was a 5650. Going to play with them and see how they all clock. One thing to comment on regarding your build, drake, is that mobo cover. That is a fantastic addition. How did yo go about making it?

Thank you for the view I follow your thread also love the idea!!! Well I started with a clear peice of acrylic and laid over mobo got stud points marked in, then just cut and shaved to fit. Dremel and high speed cutters were used.

Also flow on red loop seems to be a tad slow might pick up new pump for the it. But then again maybe just to much restriction through the blocks? Ugh theu were all cleaned well before use again

I am not a great expert but I think red LED strips would be good or alternatively white LED strips against the red color of your components.
