Cooler Master H500M Water cooling Loop Build, Ryzen 3800x

I wanted to try this case and see how it would perform, and I am very happy - excellent airflow for water cooling. I'm getting very low GPU and water temps; GPU stays in the 39c to 41c range during gaming with a 23c ambient. Corsair radiators, a thick 360 in the front, and thinner 360 up top with ML120 fans, and Corsair Hydro X pump. Very pleased with this pump, great flow and exceedingly quiet. Not sure if its the pump itself or the bracket Corsair uses, but it is almost inaudible.

It's a very quiet build, surprisingly quieter and cooler than my be quiet! Dark Base 900 Rev 2 build; but that's to be expected due to the huge airflow in this case allowing for low rpm fan usage.

This was also a chance to use the new EK leak tester, very easy to use and gave me great results.
