Externally water cooled HTPC with alot of juice in it.

This is the final build (around 95% at least) and here are some pictures of it (i'm getting better at that damned camera haha):

The complete picture so to speak.

Those two EKWB nickel plated fittings will be replaced with Monsoon 13/10 black ones.

 I do dig the gold theme.

 I'm pretty pleased with the solution, it's extremely tight in this Silverstone Crown case.

 A.C. Ryan 80mm. LED-fans.

 Two more, blowing air out the back.

 It is pretty difficult to get a good view for a great picture of the graphics cards.

 Too bad the UV doesn't show in these pictures.

 The tubing to the external cooler comes out the back where i drilled two holes and places two Bitspower fittings.

 Out in the back the water flows.

 The external cooler.

 Three EKWB 360 XTX radiators are in that housing from Phobya.

 Not sure if it shows but there is more work to do regarding the cable management.

An overview.

Semi hard copper loop that was semi finished...

Glad i found this picture of my copper loop that never passed my safety standards.

It looks sweet though and one day...

...maybe one day it will be put together, upgraded and finished...

hehe...

Perhaps the CoolerKit guys have some sweet fittings or something,,,

EKWB gear, Air 540, X79-Deluxe and chrome copper.

A sneak peak of the final stages of this build.
12mm. chrome covered copper pipes are replacing the three meter acrylic pipes i bought.

The four meter copper pipes will be enough, only the CPU block left and i have little less than a
meter left it looks like.

Then, after updating the blog with perhaps another "preview" or two the final build log will be presented
here, no it might not be the next million dollar PC haha, but it was a fun journey and the ride was long enough to be shared with fellow enthusiasts.
