Will have to buy some sleeving on my next pay, also for a $330 PSU I wish the ATX 24pin and the 2 8 Pin CPU connectors where longer, can hardly fit them
I know exactly what you mean, I felt as though I was going to lever the socket off the motherboard when I plugged the 24 pin power cable in.

Hey guys, when i get back from work, ill show you all my new watercooling attempt.

I purchased the XSPC RASA 750 with the 360mm rad.
Its pretty sweet basic setup for $199 bucks

However, the tube is shit, the barbs and fittings are shit!
I just ordered better tubing, some compression fittings and silver from koolroom.

But ill show you what i have so far, its a bit ghetto!

The barbs in that setup aren't that bad.

Also they give you 7/16 tubing and 1/2 barbs, but also give you clips. Don't see how that affects performance anyway.

not really performance, i feel the build quality and ease of use a little shit, plus the plastic clip thingie doesnt look as nice.

As promised here is my first ever watercooling attempt. open to critisim.
* I will eventually cool the video cards, just dont have the cash so its going to be CPU only for quite awhile

I have also purchase this mount, I aim to have the rad facing upright on top of the case (so you can see the fans swerlling around.




The Res and Pump combo, I have no idea where im gonna put my fan controller and DVD rom drive?


Ghetto fan controller mounting spot, also the rad is not fastened down, just ghetto floating on top of the case with rubber grommits below

Toss the tacky fractal case and get a 800d, or something that will make your setup look better.

sorry i just hate fractal design cases, owned one.. never again.
