Hello EVGA community! Today I will be starting a partial installation of a new EVGA Dark into a liquid cooled setup. Motherboard: EVGA Dark Chasis: AzzA Genesis 9000 (black) CPU: Intel 4930k Waterblock: EK Supreme LTX CSQ (Nickel Plexi) Radiator: Black Ice SR-1 480 ^Fans: 4x Cooler Master SickleFlow 120 (red) Memory: 2x Samsung Evo 250GB (RAID 0) RAM: GSKILL TridentX 32GB (4x8) Still require... PSU HDDs Pump Reservoir Hoses Fittings OK Picture Time! Parts to go in Sealed For Freshness Moving Hot swaps to make room for Dual Bay Reservoir  All sickleflows ready to go, man they look good in black Crimped a wire either by factory or my own stupidity. Only for front panel leds, easy fix...still annoying though AzzA Genesis flexing its sexiness. Built in motherboard tray which can be removed and flipped for a reverse ATX setup which I will be running. But also provides for easy and very accessible motherboard installation That moment everyone gets where they go, "I want to run my loop HOW?" 4930k Lock-in...carefully Ahhhhhhh....  EK Supreme looking classy Waterblock and Ram Installed Glamour shot of the TridentX, really liking the red and black theme I've achieved so far Samsung EVOs mounted nicely, conveniently with red cables =) Dual Bay Reservoir by XSPC with two DDC Pumps  Front View with dust filters removed. Also shows inlet/outlet of 480 radiator   Thanks for the support! will post more soon

Love the pic where you guys are trying to picture the loop, yup, most times it happens just like that to. Changed my loop twice after I had it installed till I finally liked what I saw. Gonna be a real nice rig bud.

Adding another part to the build just placed an order for nateman_doo's voltage waterblock so I figured id give him a shoutout for his page. The dedication from the community is great when projects like this become available. Check his page out http://forums.evga.com/m/...8931&fp=1&p=70

Pretty! Hope your dual bay res is better than my Koolance was. It was getting on my nerves with its vibrations, even with undervolted DDCs.

Mmmm I hope so too though this setup is going to be running 6ft away from me so I'm not too concerned about sound. And I'm rarely playing/watching something in which the volume isn't louder than my current setup's operating noise. The only issue I really see is if the vibrations make the fittings loosen but I optimistically doubt it. I will be sure to post my findings though

I used two drive bay Koolance pump rezzie combos for years without issue, in fact they both still work to this day, though they have been put into retirement.

They do work, lacking any kind of vibration compensation. And every single DDC I own is vibrating like if its purpose would be another.

I think this mod should go into mods rigs so I'll move it there

I love the EK clear products. I just wish they would make them without the poka dots. Rig is looking great.
