    Whoa I have to say thats seriously sweet... very very nice :O makes me want some watercooling

    That fan on the front is quite a nice effect, ever thought about making it a bit more stealthy by making like a shroud for it or something? Just so it doesn't look like such a ghetto mod

    Heres a year old pucture of my system... no need to have a new pic really because I haven't upgraded much on it since

    cheers man, appreciate it.
    yeah, that fan is just connected to the 4 in 3 hdd cage, and the 3 filters/ bezels are off because i was testing everything was okay after installing the water. looks okay, but i put the bezels back on eventually. here is it with them, though without water, will change for one with when i have time. sorry if two posts is not on, if so merge them together. still a total of only three pics.


    only has one akasa fan control, and no res
