    Mr.MattyV

    Very nice. Where are you putting that second 3x 120 radiator?

    Its being installed on the back of the case sir.
     
    I can mount the radiator to the swiftech radbox then use 2 90 degree fittings and come in through the supplied grommets on the back of the case.

    Looking forward to the finished product. I have two of these 800D builds. Both Watercooled...
     
    May I make a suggestion? I found that replacing two of the factory 140's is required. They are HORRIBLE. 
     
     
    I now use this one for the bottom fan that pulls the air from the bottom of the case (By the PSU) http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=36_316_849&products_id=28570&zenid=72b2c13dc8156fb24019441f204f0a92
     
    And I use this one for the rear exhaust http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=36_316_849&products_id=28571&zenid=72b2c13dc8156fb24019441f204f0a92
     
    Finally I just installed this Corsair unit (There are two versions, the one I got is the one required ad there is almost no clearance from the case where it mounts) to pull air from the seems in the front of the case. So it pushes air towards the door/cover that the black fan can use in addition to the bottom screened air. http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=36_49_1050&products_id=34312&zenid=72b2c13dc8156fb24019441f204f0a92
     
    I am extremely pleased with the results. My temps dropped 7c by doing this.

    I dry fitted the Swiftech radbox today and everything is looking good so far. I had to remove the stock rear 140mm fan and mount a Corsair AF120 Quiet Edition i had sitting here from my previous build to mount the radbox as it was intended.

    I plan on coming in from the top of the rad with 2 Enzotech 90 degree fittings -

    Mr.MattyV

    The bottom sits right around where the PSU is installed so it is long but i still have room to work back there.

    I appreciate your input and i do plan on changing them out.
     
    I already replaced the rear exhaust with a Corsair AF120 Quiet Edition and i will prob do 2 140mm Corsair Quiet's or perhaps those fans you recommended.

    A few more things arrived today but unfortunately my Enzotech fittings are being dropped shipped from the manufacturer so i wont have them until next week -

    Mayhems Aurora Extinction Green Coolant Concentrate -



    XSPC Daul 5.25'' Bay Res & 12' of Primochill 1/2''x3/4'' Clear tubing -



    Side Note -

    I had trouble as expected sliding the bay res in because the slots on each side of the 5.25'' bay are a little 2 wide so i need to Dremel them down a bit tomorrow.

    All fans and swifttech radbox mounted on the rear rad -


     
    Mounted Permanently -

    I mounted the XSPC cpu block tonight and i can honestly say it was not the easiest install. I had to had to apply a lot of pressure on the screw heads just to catch any threads on the cpu back plate because they use a spring/washer combination. I ended up re applying TIM 3 different times because i wasn't content with the cpu block spreading the tim around while i struggled to mount it properly.

    After it was all said and done i was happy with the finished look though -

    I dry fitted some tubing today to get an idea of how to route everything off the rear mounted rad -





    I can bring another feed to the top video card and that will complete the loop from the rear rad but if any 1 else has a better idea then feel free to share it.

    I have decided on a lighting scheme that will be low profile but still have a strong impact so with that said -

    Bitfenix Alchemy Connect 30 LED Light Strip - Blue X2



    4-Pin Molex Powe Adapter Cable w/ Remote On/Off Toggle Switch - 36" - To have full control of both LED strips



    Few others items that are being purchased tonight to help finish this build up -

    Corsair Air Series AF140 Quiet Edition High Airflow 140mm Fan - To replace the fan that blows air in to the HD cage



    PrimoChill Anti-Kink Coils - Gloss Blue - Just in case i need some



    I am still trying to decide if i want to go with a single bay fan controller or just order another Corsair link cooling node so i can control everything from the desktop.

    Hey
    Would you recommend the Lamptron Inverterless?
    How bright is it from a scale of 1-10?
    Thanks

    Thanks

    Build quality is nice but as far as brightness i would give it a 7 out of 10.
     
    The cover on it is not clear so there is def more brightness 2 be had but i can't determine if it will suit my needs until i get all the tubing in.
