So now I have gotten that itch to build once again and I will be trying to clean things up a bit and make it use the space a little better. I have already ordered all the parts and am now just waiting so I will be able to build.
First I will be delidding my 4770k and applying coollaboratory liquid pro on the die and do direct mount with ek's precisemount screws.
I have ordered a second d5 vario xres for quietness,redundancy (and to fill up the case a bit) as well I have ordered 250ml tubes for both reservoirs again for aesthetic purposes.
I ordered a white dimmable led strip which I plan on hooking up to my fan controller to light up the case
For drainage I did not have any system in place prior to this so I plan on using a plexi psu plate I ordered from coldzero, drilling a 3/4" hole in it and running a tube from the end of my basement 480 through the hole with a simple plug and screw cap on the end outside the case for easy drainage. Simple.
I also ordered a matte black plexi midplate, rear hdd cover, motherboard backplate, and rear fan backplate to clean the aesthetics of my build, i will drill holes into the midplate accordingly for tubing runs, but wont be using bulkhead pass-through fittings.
Once fully assembled I will fill the whole loop with EK ekooland blood red colour.
Ill post pictures of the whole process when I get around to doing this in the next few weeks as another update post.
