Final Overclocks..... 5.2GHZ on the 8086k, I got it to 5.6 but it seemed too hot for me, and I was at 1.4V, so I backed that off to 1.35. The 8700k would only go to 4.8GHZ on 1.32V. I blame that on the lack of radiators for that loop, heat was clearly an issue. But that means there is 10GHZ in that box! Nice round number.

Very nice. I'm jealous! I was able to get my clocks on my 8700k to hit 5.2. But I also delidded and put some conductonaut in there and it's running under water. However having two systems>one system.

The ambient light is too dark. The lighting looks nice, but almost nothing is really visible to us. It would be nice to see a picture with natural lighting without the system lighting powered.

Yea amazing build. Bending tubes it's not problem... It's harder to estimate right angle and off course to pay all fittings you need. Inside you have more than 100$ of compression fittings and adapters. Special Bitspower... I didn't bought them because angled adapters have big logo and 13/10 stragth have thiner body than bottom part with thread.

I probably shouldn’t admit this, but there are roughly 400 USD worth of fittings in this thing. I used both bitspower and monsoon....

I believe it, fittings and other bits add up very quickly!

Great color. Are you using Corsair fans and iCUE to coordinate the colors?

No I got the inwin Polaris fans and I have a love hate relationship with them. I switched out the bottom PC red liquid and got a new set of awesome psu cables. I installed them today. When my 2080ti and 9900k get here I’ll post pics. Wish I did Corsair fans, but the wiring is brutal.

I should have talked to you I just couldn’t figure it out. All these nodes and just the sheer volume of wires for my 16 fans....
Also the EK stuff was aura compatible and I wanted it all synced. All in all I’m happy with them except for the terrible grip the rgb headers have. They constantly fall off. I may glue them onto some extension chords.

Scarface get a bending kit and study YouTube. It’s soooo much harder then soft tubing but I guess it’s worth it?

Friend call me to try at his home, it's not hard bending... estimation of right direction is harder.

I like the look of that last shot of how you connected the GPU to the Res. I just completed my EKWB loop yesterday (albeit with SLI'ed 1080 TI's) and didn't have enough 90º elbows. The tube ended up very complicated and doesn't look all that good (2 x 90º and a 180º bend). Will order a few more fittings next week and see how I go. PS. Don't mix an EKWB Res top stopper and a thumbscrew stopper! I accidentally put the res stopper on a fitting and blue spewed coolant everywhere!
