It's finished..
For those of you that have read this post I have finished the build
works like a dream, 27%-35% difference in temps compared to AirCooled. dBa difference is outstanding, load or no-load it makes no difference the rig still runs near silent. Odd considering I added 2 fans and a pump...
A note to anyone thinking of watercooling their case:
I found with the Antec 900 it was "kinda" set up for it but it was not designed for the kit that I purchased. If your case is not specifically watercooling compatible, a run at it with a Dremmel or similar tool will quickly rectify that Remember measure twice, cut once - GOLDEN RULE
Overall I feel it was well worth it, trying at times and the whole project took 15hrs but it was a labour of love I will never buy an aircooled pc again...
