Hey guys,

Here's another update on this build! Most of the fittings and cables are now in and it's ready for tubing up! Just wanted to give you guys a quick look inside before tubing up.

That chrome colored fittings is the only straight rotary fittings that I had. Once the front radiator is in that fittings is not seen.

You can also see the LED strips are in, these are UV LEDs from Icemodz.

Not sure if you notice but I bent a piece of acrylic around the 80mm fans and also around the 140mm fan, thought it cleans things up a bit.

Hey guys!

Here it is, tubing all done! The hard tubing used is 1/2" Primochill PETG. First time I've used PETG tubing over acrylic and it's awesome!

So easy to use, heats up and bends much quicker and then can just cut the ends of with a tube cutter

Let me know what you think of the bends, tried to keep tubing to a minimum.

So tight for the 24pin!

Pretty much leaning on the fan. Lucky it's on the back of it so, it's still able to spin.

Thanks for checking it out! I should have final pics up in a few days, will get it filled and install Win 10 on it. Will be my first PC with Win 10 on it.

Cheers,

Alex

Ohh finally tubes inside! Since the case is pretty small I guess wasn't so easy right? Which coolant you will use?

Yea hahaha finally, unfortunately this build took much longer than I anticipated! Glad to see it finished.

The tubing wasn't so hard to do, getting the right fittings set up in the right positions was very hard though. Especially from the pump to the larger reservoir and then up into the 240 radiator.

Coolant I will be using is Mayhems X1 Clear UV Blue. So under normal light everything will be clear and once the system is on, with the UV lights it will turn to UV Blue

Hey guys,

Here it is, last update! The build is finally finished!

Hope you've enjoyed this build logs and like the finished build!

I would like to say thanks again to all my sponsors for this project! Primochill for the awesome fittings and PETG tubing, MNPCTECH for all the modding supplies that came in very handy and of course Icemodz for the custom sleeved cables and LED strips, without them all the neat cable management would not have been possible! Also thanks to GGF Lan Party for kindly donating the Corsair 250D case

The coolant used is Mayhems X1 Clear UV Blue, love the effect it gives, completely clear under normal light and blue under UV!

Hope you guys like the UV effect and if anyone is wondering about the red light, it's from the motherboard and can be turned off in the bios. I took these pics before hooking it up to a monitor and tinkering with it.

Time to start a new project for the Thermaltake CaseMOD Invitaional Season 2, hope to see you all there and here is a sneak peak!

Thanks for checking out my build log!
