Latest iteration of my cooling setup...lets call this v5

NZXT Switch 810 and various other gear :)
Was a fun build, partly because I finally ditched socket 775, and partly because it was so cheap.
The Switch is a wonderful case for water cooling. Couple caveats, but overall a nice case to work with.

I know some are from the leak testing phase but I was to lazy to retake :p Hope you guys like it!
 
After seeing first hand the temps the FX8120 was putting out I decided to make the jump to a custom loop. This has been in the works for a bit now and took allot longer than anticapated with still some case mods to finish and wire managment to do. Still stock settings but am very pleased with the results so far 20*C CPU Temps under full load with X264 running 6 hours straight. Soon time to step on this puppy and see what it can do ...... 4.5GHZ was my best prior.

Latest build and probably the last. New Project Underway.

EDIT: Photo adding failed, uploaded but did not post...
 
I still have a few minor changes to make, but here are some pictures of my first water cooled system:

Nice setup! I'm building my new setup in a 600T and found that the top bulges over the fans in teh top recess even though I'm only using 25mm thick fans, did you have the same issue?

Love the contrast of the black and white :)

My two Akasa Viper fans (also 25mm) fit with no problem. Fitting my fill port required I dremel the underside of the grill, but I didn't mod anything for the fans.

Don't be afraid to get it WET,\,,/-_-'\,,/:comp:

Please fix your images, it's awful for those of us who use netbooks to browse the forum. I've posted how to do it correctly AT LEAST 5 times in this thread.
