V2.0! - As it currently stands. (excuse the protective film still being on, I am in the process of moving house and thought it worth while to remain on until then!)
Parts overhaul! Plenty of boxes to say I only wanted to change my case!
I couldn't get over how small this PSU was!
ATX board in, cpu cooler and ram cooler in place along with GPU so I can start to think how the pipes will run.
Frontal view with the distro plate in place.
Finally, let's get some water in the rig! It took hours and hours of bending, making mistakes and throwing pipe away and starting again. It is far from perfect I know, but I am happy with how it is just for now.
V2, a working progress
I know what you're thinking.... 'Another Lian li case...great!'
Me too initially, but I did at least go for the mini !!
I decided to go with the lian li case purely for the choice of bolt on mods. In my first ever build, I found it difficult to find the right places to put things like the res & pump so with the many options given with this case, it ended up being a no brainer.
This is my second ever build and second attempt at PETG bending and I know it is by no means perfect but I am learning as I go.
What you see in this build is not the final variant, I will be redoing all of the pipe work when I get a 30 series card & waterblock.
I will also move away from the UV pink water and go clear or maybe an opaque colour - not decided yet!
