Juan, that looks nice. I guess you've hit the big time with Gigabyte sponsoring you. Well done, you deserve it. You may have to go a little green with your theme to match the Gigabyte colors. Plus, a little color on the white case would make it stand out. Maybe a little Yoda. You're doing great.

Thanks Steve, I really appreciate your comments and input.

Regarding Gigabyte, well, all it actually means is that they are going to supply boards and video cards free of charge for our next 3 show builds in exchange for having their logo somewhere VERY visible on our cases.

The Yoda idea could definitely work. Will look into it although he's not one of my favorite SW characters.

Cheers,

What you meant to say was Yoda IS one of my favorite SW characters......fixed it for ya!

LOL Kelly.
He actually was my favorite when I was growing up, but then the dark side seduced me.

If you've been seduced by the dark side, Darth Vader's your guy then.

Hello guys.

Here's how it looks like right now.

Since I do not really like having the case full of tubes everywhere, I decided to experiment with tube routing and went kindda crazy. What do you think?
I could have done it with a shorter run of tubing, but with tighter bends, and since the pump has more than enough flow and head, I thought the additional length couldn't hurt. Besides it would have hindered what we need to do cable management wise.

Video cards should be here tomorrow, so maybe we'll be able to install the blocks before the end of the day and start testing the integrity of the loop.

Still looking for different alternatives for the case theme, but haven't found anything I really like so far,
although I have a very nice piece of news: Gigabyte is going to sponsor this rig, so maybe we'll go crazy and do something to match the board's color scheme!!! We'll see...

This is kindda turning into a build log, so let me know if I'm being annoying.
I'd really appreciate your input and advice.

Cheers,

J

No mate we like crazy it's one big club in here - you just got to remember to keep taking your pills

Darth Vader is not amused...

Bet the wife is even less amused then

I am going to sell sponserships on the side of the DeLorean to the drug companies to fund my next computer science experiment
