Great!
 
Could you do a picture of how the GTS and the GTX are connected in the top right corner ?
 

 
Thx

Okay so.... 
 
Green Line: GTS 420 is on top, its a x-flow so there are ports on both ends of the rad. Water flows from the pump, into the GTS420 with the GREEN line [90* fitting was used, so that the tubing could be run along top of the other radiator. I also had to remove the stock LED from the case, so I could stuff the tubing into the recess, or else the door would not close properly.
 
Yellow Line: water flows from the GTS 420 into the CPU block (45* fittings, and normal fittings were used)
 
Red Line: Flows from processor block, into the GPU blocks, and then the tubing goes from the gpu blocks, up behind the RES bracket, and into the GTX 420 radiator mounted on the right, this uses a 90* fitting on the right port (looking at the radiator, its the right port, hardwarelabs gives specific cooling instructions based on what fan config you are using)

Yellow Line #2 (by reservoir): Water flows out of the GTX 420 radiator, and into the reservoir, from there it flows back into the pump (combination of 90* fittings, and 45* were used)

Thats pretty much it, takes a bit of finagling, but you can definitely make a badass loop inside this case :)

Firestrike - 29,356 (http://www.3dmark.com/fs/10338313)
Firestrike Extreme - 19,450 (http://www.3dmark.com/fs/10332925)
TimeSpy - 12,852 (http://www.3dmark.com/spy/532714)

Finally got TimeSpy working, was a corrupt download, Steam was not removing the full 3DMark directory, so I had to do it manually, and let it redownload it all. Need to work on my overclock a bit, this is strictly testing with "basic" voltage curve, need to play around with the manual settings to see if I can get it all higher. I think I can safely get 30k Firestrike, 20k Firestrike Extreme and 13k TimeSpy with a bit of work..

I saw that the other day... Really wishing I went with the Rampage edition 10
 
Only thing I didn't like is that they have the chipset passively cooled, not running water from the monoblock..

I decided against the monoblock - I didnt want to have to cut the IO shield heatpipe, because I wanted to keep the IO shield as it is, its a great look. Also, I didnt like that the monoblock needs to use the AURA RGB header at bottom of the board, so it clutters with cabling. It doesnt use the stock LED connectors.
