New to OC here so thought I'd share my recent project with you guys. Let me know what you think of my first WC setup. Here are the specs with a few included pics (sorry if quality not the greatest taken from Droid Bionic)

Basic build specs:

Thermaltake Spedo advance package ( modified slightly for roof mount rad)
MSI 890fxa-gd70
AMD phenom II x6 1090t (OC to 4.1 Ghz prime stable)
xfx 5970 (flashed bios 800, 1000MHz OC) had the cold bug b4 flash
crossfired 5850
HDs nothing special WD 1tb Seagate 500gb sata3
Plextor DVD drives

WC components:

XSPC split dual bay reservoir
(2)Swiftech MCP 655 pumps
(2) EK pump tops
(2) Koolance 360 rads
(9) Coolermaster sickle flow 2000rpm mix green and blue LED
Mix of bitspower and XSPC compression fittings
Koolance cpu370 waterblock
Bitspower black freezer pro acrylic cutout GPU blocks blue LEDS
Scythe 6 channel fan controller w/ splitters for all 12 system fans and 3 temp probes

If anyone has any suggestions or comments on the setup it would greatly be appreciated. It is my first WC setup as I said and I spent a lot of time researching and planning my setup, plus I'm sure most of you know the thermaltake spedo isn't the most WC friendly case out there.
 
Thanks for the kind words Conumdrum. I wasn't sure if I needed the K inlines or not during setup. I ended up installing them more for looks than anything else, well at least I like the way they look anyway. Thanks for the welcome too.
 
I took the time to fix the attachments. Thanks for the help m0r7if3r. Very similar to html code which i'm pretty good with.
