I have this case with the same exact fans added in the front, with the antec fans on Fan Only and the coolermasters on regular power...and its noisy as hell.

Get a fan controller, because I can garantee you the noise will bother you.

Man, that's beautiful. What kind of dye do you use to get that beautiful blue? I tried the FrozenCPU UV Blue Dye, it's dissapointing (only blue UV, no real color dye).

It's been so long I forgot where I got it. I know that it is not UV and I mixed it with Red Line's water wetter (with some distilled water as well). Thanks for the comments.

I have a fan controller, but when I turn them down it sounds even worse (kind of like their groaning). It might be my fan controller.

Noisy as hell indeed!
 
Nicely done steven, I especially like the heat shrink job on the wires. BTW what did you do to get those power connectors setup like that? Anyhow, here's mine with a PC 75 case as well but it uses a modified 1/2" aquatube + aquagrill (not 56k friendly):

Stats:
[*]P4 3.0C@3.9Ghz
[*]1 GB Corsair XMS
[*]Radeon 9800 Pro (temporary until XT PE rma comes through)
[*]DD TDX P4 Block
[*]DD Maze 4 GPU Block
[*]DD4 Laing 12V Pump
[*]7/16" MasterKleer tubing
[*]Modded 1/2" Aquatube + LED
[*]Evo 240 Grill
[*]BIX II Rad modded to fit evo 240 grill

You can buy blue Pentosin antifreeze to make it blue. I have some here at home but I haven't added much into my loop yet.
 
Very nice setup.
Very nicely done custom fab. work.
What are your temps running at?
I have a water cooled rig as well.
I set it up to run Structural Analysis software for my own company.
I would be glad to share my rig specs. and operating temps if you are interested.
I run my rig runs @ 100% system load for long periods of time and it is OC'd.

Thanks! I don't have any temps, but I bet they would be low. The top exit hole for my rad never gets warm. Although the exit on the psu is somewhat hot.
