MetallicAcid's TJ07 (working title)

Södertälje Specialsnickeri AB Sweden

[size="3"]Hello everyone! I have a nice little watercooling update coming at you!

This update involves installing the GPU blocks onto the GPUs, then installing them onto the motherboard - and installing the dual reservoirs onto the angled plate!

I have to say, I personally love how this build is shaping up!

Firstly, let us take a look at the GPU blocks made by EK Waterblocks.

Next up are the reservoirs, also make by EKWB.

So as a short written update, I have started drilling holes through the midplate for the monoblock and GPU bridge, and really got thinking about how I wanted the loop to go. I need to make a bracket for the top of the angled plate as this plate with the reservoirs installed is top heavy, and I wish to give it a little extra support.

I hope you all have enjoyed this update

Kind regards,
Justin "MetallicAcid" Ohlsen

P.S It was really awesome meeting you guys at the Intel's Kitchen competition!

[size="3"]Hello and welcome!

It has been quiet these last few weeks regarding this project as all of my family including myself have shared a nasty cold, which we have been battling for the last 3 weeks or so. This means that our daughter was home from preschool and we were also home looking after her This did mean no modding though, but I have almost finished my own website which will launch soon!

In this update, I started the tubing for the water cooling loop, beginning with the drain, and from the radiators up to the main cabin.

I have to say that I love working with the chromed copper tubing, which I regard much easier to work with when compared to hard acrylic tubing. And those shiny looks, OH MY GAWWD does it look killer!

I have this Monday and Wednesday (around 10 hours total) of which I plan on completing this project provided I get some extra right angled fittings before Wednesday. Other than tubing, I just have to sleeve one more PCIE cable, the pump cable, SATA power and data cables and install the LED strips. Please let me know of what you think of the progress so far

PSU and rad installation:

Drain installation:

480 radiator to main chamber:

240 radiator to reservoir

Pump tubing:

No mistakes yet, just adjustments for pipes that were too long:

Thank you for checking out this project everyone, especially you who have been with me from the very beginning since last year. It is a great feeling to see this project come to maturity, and I hope you have enjoyed the build log thus far!

Kindest regards,
