I would have skipped the red dye and went with red tubing and a red led for the res.....Other than that a great project good list

Did you ditch the 275? if so why.

http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.php?t=613785

Did you get PHN or PT Nuke? PHN is for distilled loops only. The older PT Nuke is better for loops with other things besides distilled. Or just go with a killcoil, safer and easier.

I went with the PH nuke - im using all copper blocks and distilled water.
i ditched the 275 because im planning to keep this gpu for at least a year, its got 100mb more memory and is faster - and i thought id treat myself - ive had a 9600gt for over a year now!!!!!
I've not actually ordered the parts yet as Im trying to decide what colour UV dye to get! Im using Clear tubing, with these fans - http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Xigmatek-XLF-F1253-LED-FAN - so its between uv red, and uv green and maybe purple - not blue
any ideas people - or links to pic showing these uv colours?

then i need to choose what colour uv anticoil im getting!!!! so its just the uv fluid and anticoil colours thats stopping me order!!! i have to decide by about monday to give me 1 week for delivery!!

help!!

since your going with dye, get the green/blueish pt nuke, this one

or better yet get a bottle of each for when you start to distlike dyes.

Just recently seen that kill coil.. can you put it anywhere in the loop? or is it recommended in a certain place like in the tube infront of or behind the pump?

update - blue UV dye and Revoltec fans - white led - made ma rig look ice cold!!
