H1 2017 build with added custom loop

This build is my first one and has gone through a few iterations by now. It started with my graphics card on air and my CPU being cooled by an H100i v2. Then I set up a custom loop with flexible tubing. After that I delidded the CPU - mostly for fun. Finally, during my first maintenance, I swapped my flexible tubing for rigid tubing. Tinkering with it has been a journey so far!

Next stop: Coolant swap for an opaque one with purple color and the addition of a few discrete LED strips!
