Well I received all my parts except my RAM yesterday..  but it will be here today.. I started my build and have everything put together. My water loop has been running for 15 hours with no leaks so that's a plus. As soon as my RAM arrives today I will take some pics for you all.. On a side note I went with Feser F1 coolant (UV Orange) and I am a little disappointed with the color under UV lighting... It looks a little more yellow than orange to me..... Well it will have to do until my replacement coolant arrives from Frozen CPU...I've been using Distilled water and Petra's Tech "PT Nuke"... But, wanted to spruce things up a bit... My first choice (UV Orange) was epic fail imho.. What color coolant do you guys think looks good?? Keep in mind I have UV lighting.

Nice parts list there, looking forward to seeing this build up and running. Yeah, I havn't used any coolant other than Feser before, but I can tell you that their red coolant doesn't look red at all under UV lighting really. It looks more pink. I switched over to blue UV coolant, and I did like that. I'm not sure what your overall color scheme is but the blue looks pretty cool under UV lighting. Here is a picture of the blue from my last setup before I changed it around again. Right now I am using black, which is supposedly UV reactive, but I don't have any UV lighting, and I'm using all black tubing anyway. I kind of get the feeling under UV it would look more like dark purple.

Sounds like it will be an awesome build.  I do agree that red or black tubing would look best with the classy, rather than purple. You should consider having some red accents in the extensions, too. (It's UV reactive!)

If I could suggest one thing. Reservoir above the pump at all times using the bottom connector. Other than that sweet rig and that Corsair case is just HUGE. Also what about full coverege block for the Classy?

Yeah working on the full coverage block... Waiting for income tax money..hehe. I also plan on changing the loop when I get my new Laing DD-2 with top in.... The pump will then be on the bottom level with my PSU

First post updated with a few pictures.... One question I have the pump listed in first post and I can't seem to get the air out of the line... The return is right above the intake and it just keeps sucking the air back through the loop.... HELP..!

{uZa}DOA WOW SnowmAnnn thoughs aren't good temps at all... Somethings not right there....... With the fans at 60% I don't think that's too far off. Though I havn't used the 285's, my 295's with fans at 100% would make it into the 80's when playing a demanding game like Warhead. Those dual pcb 295's are pretty hot though, so I dunno. That's why I put them on water. Anyway, nice lookin rig man. Those sleeved extensions look awesome, great work there by Crys1s Gam3r. Looking forward to seeing some more pics.
