Most people know me from my desk build, that still being done, however its being put on hold.

[Had to order some 5mm M4 screws, as the other ones where to long, i was to fearful of damaging the fins, so screw size was very important to me.]

[Last time i tore my build down, i ran out of thermal past so i had to leave the old tim on the blocks, i wasn't to happy about that, so i did a 1 time order for all the thermal pads, paste and cleaning material i will need, ever]

[Nice big dye order, i tried out 2 drops UV green in allot of red dye, and it turned out as red, but under UV light green. i might order some UV blue clear dye and do the same thing.]

[cpu block looks very nice.]

[Nice.]

However i don't like the GPU block designs, the circle square design works for the CPU and ram blocks because they are small, but on a larger surface like the GPU blocks, they get overwhelming.

If that is the ice dragon style coolant, be warned it removed the nickel from Huggy's CPU block.

Looking forward to seeing this all come together.

I havnt had any experience with ice dragon coolant, but its pastel white, so it looks like milk :3. i just bought if in-case i want to use it in the future.

Yea that's the plan, never want for thermal paste again. no more MSY runs for just thermal paste.

Also need a better camera .

Current temps on stock. Il do some Overclocking tomorrow. i will bench it at 5ghz, then run it 24/7 at 4.5Ghz. Then after that all i need is some GPU's power. I don't want to get the 680's, in my opinion nvidia has way more to give and i wont be buying new cards till the next flagship. rumors are new cards sept/oct, keyword rumors.
