ok, well even though i just re-did my setup couple weeks ago after getting a new cpu block, i decided to change my setup do to a little leakage problem. every since i started using 1/2" tubing with the thin walls i've had leak issues. going back to 1/2" thick walled stuff. this time i'm gonna go all out, cutting holes on the mobo tray to hide wiring better, any maybe a new paint scheme, i'll just be replacing the tubing, RES, Pump, adding a Fillport.

new items:
MCP655 pump - replacing my MCP355 pump
DD FillPort
1/2" ID x 3/4" OD tubing. - replacing my thinwall tubing
Swiftech MicroRES - replacing my swiftech bay res.

setup as is for now:

Paint skills...you have none!

A fill port is usually used with a T-Line, not a rez.
To refill with a raz you'd just remove the cap and pour in the coolant.

Okay, here is my last paint attempt, a bit different, but kinda puts you guys to shame. Her arm is resting on a radiator.

LMAO.

Yeah I would skip the rez. A foot of T-line will hold enough water for 6 months or more if the plug seals good.

i decided, no res. i got a swiftech micro res, and its really not fitting into place where i wanted it, so i'm scratching it. just have to finish my mobo tray holes and fill port holes and i'll be good to go.
