Bro the sleeving looks great. I also like what you did with the covers for the motherboard tray and the back panel. Sweet build.

Thank you, sir!! I greatly appreciate that...I take a lot of time taking pics to get the right ones, and did this build for fun, saw alot of people going red and black so I thought I'd try one, too!

Thanks!! Sleeving is a pain but it makes all the difference in the world...the temps are insanely better on this rig than on my main rig, I took a gamble blocking off the rear fan exhaust, but thought I'd try it...all air comes in at bottom and 2 places on the front, exits ALL out the rad at the top...works quite well actually. The case window was'nt going to let the res be seen well if mounted by the 24 pin plug so I thought I'd try it where it's at...could'nt mount a fan too so thought I'd block it off!!

Thank you samarlian, I used the barbs my first time, too and thought I'd try compression fittings, that's what these are, by Koolance. Much cleaner look and easier to take apart if needed!!! The quick disconnects get expensive FAST, but they make the build SO much easier to fill / drain / and just easier to work with in the future...HIGHLY recommend them. Alot of people like Bitspower fittings better, they just seem to cost a little more to me, I TRY to find ways to save with water cooling, if possible! Tubing is http://www.frozencpu.com/products/8664/ex-tub-456/25_Meter_8_feet_Feser_Tube_Active_UV_Hose_-_Retail_Packed_-_38_ID_12OD_Anti-Kink_Tubing_-_UV_Red.html?tl=g30c99s909 , pretty U.V. reactive, but not as much as their u.v. green tubing is!

quick disconnects FTW! Awesome build! BTW is your EK Supreme HF the Nickel/Plexi or Copper/Plexi?

Thanks teng247!...it's the Nickel/Plexi. And I don't know which makes the bigger difference, the MX2 I'm using or the cpu water block, but this rig WITH a gpu in the loop is running COOLER than my other rig using the Heatkiller 3.0 / Arctic silver 5 - MINUS a gpu dumping heat in the loop... 6 to 8 degree difference in temps - idle OR a run of Linx!!!

this is fantastic work raw2dogmeat!!! just a brilliant piece of art it deserves a Red Ribbon if they exist, otherwise this deffinitely earns a big Blue Ribbon   Btw just a question though regarding the chip next to the CMOS battery:  Could that refer to the Motherboard's bios chip? Just wondering that is all :)

Gold Leader, that is very kind, thanks alot...I put a lot of thought and effeort into this one!! The chip... I'm really not sure what it refers to...maybe someone else would know? Theres a picture in the motherboard manual pointing out all the points of interest on the board, no "arrow" pointing at that chip. Thanks again!!

That is indeed where the BIOS chip is located.

Nice! i wanted the nickel/plexi but everytime i checked performance pc's they were always sold out  so i just opted for the copper/plexi on my build. I love the EK supreme HF block. Nice pics as well!

Looks sweet.
I'm going to be starting a red build with a classy as well, but won't be 1/2 as nice as yours. I'll look to it for inspiration!

Thank you, Clergy, I thought it out so much it just went right together when the time came to actually build it! I actually thought about SLI'd 460's, but then I realized I'd cut off upgrade chances going that route, so, I 480 seemed like the better choice...
