Nice, I'm looking forward to seeing the build! :thup: I like the idea of mounting the res to the acrylic, looks great! Now light that baby up with some LEDs!
 
Well my shipment came in today. I also made a few runs on the loop, mounted the pumo, set up my drain port, and ran some lights. I'm very happy with how it looks right now but I still have alot of work ahead of me. Enjoy!!! :)

Wow. Looks amazing. Love ambient lighting.

The acrylic came out well. Really curious to see how all of that is hooked up.
 
Yeah I think it turned out great. The wiring is all hidden so it won't be seen. For the uv lights I use the casemods magnetic uv wide beam strips. They are doing the job well I must say. I have one more strip but I believe the case is good on lighting. I'm ordering the cpu tonight and going to overnight shipping it. That way all I will be waiting on is the graphics card. I think the tubing turned out well. Took me some trial error to figure it out but I learned a few tricks. Haha I also busted 2 fittings by accident. Opps.
 
Alright guys quick question. I'm considering putting my parts badges on the acrylic by the window. What's your guys opinion on this? I'm a little worried it might look to busy.
 
Not a big fan of those badges and stickers but this is your build and your preference so if you like it, go for it. :thup:
 
Well I'm on the fence about it. I don't mind them but I don't want to much to be going on..
 
I use the phobya pwm splitter. It works wonders and fits what I needed exactly.
 
Alright I got some work completed today. My silicone Valley i7 6700k 4.7 ghz cpu came in today. I mounted it on the motherboard and got my cpu block mounted. Also decided to run some tubing and mount my temp gauge for the loop. I'm thinking of unplugging the swiftech block lights because they are pretty overpowering. And the uv lights I have will make the block glow. I'm very pleased with where the build is at right now. What's your guys opinions?

The pictures do not do it justice. It is alot better without the cpu plug leds on. I will be leaving it how it is as far as that is concernes. It seems a little bright in the pictures but it really isnt. I will get a high res camera and take some professional pictures when the build is complete.

Oh, I love it with it on. Its like the tubes are connected to some type of source of energy or w/e. Anyways, enough of my mambo jumbo, you pick what you want. If you like it off, than it should be off and that's all that matters. :)
 
I have a 5 mm orange led that I might shove in there. It's just the white is so Brite and over powers the uv. Maybe if I can dial down the white a bit then it would work.
