So, apparently I am a doofus. I read the description wrong in auction for the Alphacool Dual 5.25. I thought I was bidding on a reservoir with only one D5 port, but apparently I was bidding on one with dual D5 ports. It also comes with a blanking plate, so you can mount only one D5. I think that...

I hear you on that. I think I will buy 24 feet of the acrylic tube ($12 :D) from the shop by my house and mess with that before I work with the more expensive stuff that I have to have shipped to me. I just talked to my friend and he apparently has an oven big enough to easily powder coat my...

Gotcha. I know the GPU's cables will be the biggest eyesore since they will be right in the middle of my window. Damn you as well! I just looked up UV sleeves and now my bill just grew!!! Those are awesome. I will sleeve everything that is showing, but I'll have to wait until build time to see...

Custom paint, maybe. My buddy has a powder coating set-up, so I will talk to him about price. I did plan on going with a Yellow/Black or Orange/Black theme so I will have UV Acrylic Hard Tubing and colored sleeves to match. Do I need anything other than the PCI-E Sleeves for the GPU's?

I am going to build my workstation out of Inter-Metro shelving. I sell this stuff at my work so I get 40% off which is nice. You can build anything you want with Inter-Metro and it has great ventilation. Will hold hundreds of pounds of weight too. As far as my build goes, here is the final...

I hope so! I know I can fit a 60mm 480 up there, but ill have to measure again to see if I can fit an 80mm. Thanks for all the help guys! I'm sure ill have more questions soon!

Yes it is already bought, and HD cage removed! I looked at both of those, and the Phanteks looked to be just as big, if not, maybe a tiny bit smaller. The 900D would have been nice, but I am not paying $300+ for a case. Here is what I have to work with now that the HD cage is removed (Had to...

I just emailed Joe from Frozen CPU and he said I should be able to loop in another MCP655 in the same loop even though I only had a reservoir with one D5 inlet. So I can keep my Alpha Cool Dual Bay 5.25", which is cool because I got a really good deal and don't want to get another one! Yeah I...

I could, but I kind of like the idea of two loops if I have to get another res anyways. It will come down to whatever I can get a deal on though. Both options work for me!

I guess I should have mentioned the widths I was planning on. I had originally planned on a 360/240 Monsta setup Either way I need to figure out exactly how much space I will have in the case. I may as well utilize all of it. Worst case scenario I can only fit a 480 and a 60mm 360 Gotcha...

Soooo.....what you're saying is.....more radiator!!! I can fit a 480 at the top of the case and a 360 at the bottom. I could possibly fit a 480 on the bottom, but I am not positive if the PSU would allow me enough room.

Yes I will be on watch for a used Temp/Fan control bay unit. I have about 3-4 months until I want this completed so I am going to be taking allot of time to get the right components (at good prices haha) and do the research so I am prepared when build time comes. Wow, that is allot of...

Well, the reason I went with 3x 290's was to power my three 2560x1440 120hz monitors with high settings (or get as close as possible). Because I didn't want an afterburner inside my case, I pretty much HAD to go with water cooling with this setup unless I want an extremely loud heater in my...

Haha you can cool a car with that radiator! I bought an Alphacool Dual 5.25" Reservoir with single D5 port yesterday so I was thinking an MCP655 should just about do the trick.

Ahh, and what an excellent question that is. To be honest, I have no clue because I never got around to checking out the different ways of doing so just yet. Do you have a recommendation?
