As a point of advice, no one is going to want to click through all those links. Attaching the images to the post will make things much easier.

You can only pick three at a time, but you can upload three multiple times in the same popup window.
If you need help getting the pictures in-line with text I can help

The build is now complete <3<3

i will upload images very soon of the final build process and images of the Finished BUILD<3<3

if you have any questions about my thought process during the build, please ask away and ill do the best i can to answer

I had 1 leak from reservoir to the pump, tried 3 times to fix it, but ended up using the old res top with single hole, as the buttom instead, wich fixed the leak ..
i made 2 acryllic plates, covered 1 side of it with carbon foil and put one in the buttom of the case, as a mirror wic reflects all the gold <3<3,
and the other plate i put in the back to cover up the SSD's

Looks great,,

Idle temps
CPU 27 Degrees
GPU 25 Degrees

Load temps
CPU 45 Degrees
GPU 40 Degrees
