My old setup had a single loop. It was running very well, but I had always intended to go with dual loops. Plus I was tired of everyone telling me I did not have enough stuff in my 900D :D.
 
Old Setup

 
 
Took everything out.


Backplate install + PSU plate - very straight forward. just put the plate in the case and screw it in
 

 





 
5.25 cage backplate for mounting ssd's and 5.25 cage front side plate. These were a bit tricky as there are no instructions, but after you get frustrated for a bit, you will figure it out. There are two silver screw mounts that you have to install on the cage, then you put the plate up and screw it in. The install for both front/back 5.25 plates are very similar.
 
backside of 5.25 cage

 
The problem with this is that it makes it impossible to put my 5.25 bay reservoir where these screw mounts are. So I lose bays 1 and 4. Thankfully my setup worked with my bay in slots 2 and 3. :)

 


Now for the front 5.25 plate




 
Now for the MB tray plate.



 
It is mainly held in by these pieces. There were some front holes that did not line up correctly withe the screw holes on the case, but these seemed to be enough to hold it together.

 
I had to make the hole in the upper left bigger to accommodate the inlet to my top radiator. 

 
I also had to drill a hole for the outlet tube from the reservoir.

It was nice for Coldzero to supply space fillers for the cutouts I did not need.


 
Install of the 170mm XS-PC tube/pump reservoir
 

 
 

 
drilled two holes
 



onto the gpu's. Took off the coolers
 

cleaned them up

 
The aquacomputer blocks are nice because you can use thermal paste for the memory :)

 
Active Back plates
 

 


 
 I used Bitspower crystal links for a parallel config. The tubes were the 19mm long in the "1-slot" pack.


 
I had to use a 140mm rad because my quad 480 had a hole in it :(. glad I have this one until I get it replace.
 



 














 
All done for now. Need to get my quad RMA'd. will post more pics when I get that in.
