Re: [Build] Shockblade Graphite #31

It took 2 hours and a half , but I managed to find a different way to position the reservoir and the pump , removing the frame of the 3,5" bays and putting the HDDs in the 5,25" bays( don't worry they can't move or fall, I fixed the 3,5" frame into the 5,25" frame )

Re: [Build] Shockblade Graphite #33
I'm gonna take some more pics after lunch , this one was a really fast one I shot yesterday at 1:00 AM

I wanted to try 2 different colors for the tubes , but i'm just wondering if they're good togheter or it is just "strange" to use two slightly different colors ...

I'm also going to buy a mechanical keyboard since some days ago my roccat isku has broken... with the new keyboard will come new fittings and many other things.

As you can see I need some 45° fittings and to review a bit of the cable management but I think that in the end it will be better than before.
Anyway this is a temporary arrangement because I'm gonna buy some new tubes ( I wanna try white tubes too ) and those fittings to improve loop tidiness

Re: [Build] Shockblade Graphite #35
Looks beautiful!

Will you integrate the VGA into the water cooling loop?

Re: [Build] Shockblade Graphite #36
Yep, I wanted to, I don't like universal waterblocks so I was looking for a fullcover but the only ( at least the only one I found ) fullcover for the 7970 lightning was made by EK and now is "EOL"...

Re: [Build] Shockblade Graphite #37
It's been a while since I posted something,I've been busy since university started but now it's about time for a pretty big update...
I'm gonna buy acrylic tubes ( plus white straight fittings and black 90degrees fittings )because I don't like the way normal tubes bend, sometimes you can't give them the shape of a 90 degree turn and it seems like they hang loosely.

here's what I'm probably gonna buy :

Anyway this night I was pretty bored and I could't sleep so I decided to use the uv nail painting I bought some time ago to do something useful ( ehm well maybe it was more "useful" before , but now it is surely more "in topic" )

Basically , since I didn't find any blue uv reactive fan i decided to make my own, here you can see the fan itself and the fan compared to the same "non-painted" fan :

Re: [Build] Shockblade Graphite #38
Damn ... did you steal that paint from your girlfriend?

I'm so curious to see the update with the acrylic tubes! I would also be interested in some feeback, like how easy or difficult it was to bend them.

Re: [Build] Shockblade Graphite #39
Well... not exactly 'cause actually I'm single ( so girls if you're reading this, come on , don't be shy ) and my ex-girlfriend used to have only dark nails painting.
To be honest I asked my sister and my mother to buy that for me... and yes I was a bit shy about buying an UV nails paint and I also CAN'T resist more than 10 second in a makeups shop

However , I'll be happy to post some feedback about my experience with the acrylic tubes.
