As long as it still cools, i dont give a shit really. once i switch to the front EK quantum dist plate and quantum CPU block though in Jan, i am gonna make sure there is stuff in the water to negate this as much as possible.
Hopefully doesn't cause any lasting issue. Good thing you noticed it.

Everything else is either copper or brass. Not sure about the barbs i am using though, could be them maybe?
  • Barb: 1/4 to 3/8 Barb Fitting (Black Chrome) Brass underneath coating?
  • WC100XS_46952_750x750.jpg
Everything else is EK, Both EK radiators, one PE, one CE, can't be tank as it's acrylic. GPU block is copper/acrylic.

Black chrome is sometimes black nickel plating (alloy deposition of nickel and zinc) rather than chromium. Don't know if that could be an issue.

My "old" Nanoxia Deep Silence 5 rev.B case with all the HD cages removed & all optical drive external brackets gone from front compartment. Soon to be replaced with Corsair ML140 modified to fit into this empty compartment to get more tunnelling of air flow towards vital components. Gotta keep this rocket lake based rig cool as... :cool:
Notice NO arpg bling! just the way I like it.

Ram clearance is unbelievably so close to CPU HS, its amazing it just fits, glad the heat spreaders in a way fell off during ram testing, all except 1 side of 1 stick .... :)

The bottom right side fans I might replace with Corsair ML140s, lucky this case has excellent sound repression abilities, the inside then will be almost like gale force wind speeds when operating at max rpm!

Hard tubing looks cool but I wouldn't have the mental capacity to measure and bend the tubes etc., so I'll go with soft tubing.

@nologin666 peel the sticker from the logo your AIO's block :toast:

Once i get the same plate as this for my case, i'll be doing the tubing like this. Not many bends so will not be too bad. this is the same case as mine, with the same front plate i am getting. Ordering the plate about 6th jan

The price of the fittings is already more scary than any horror movie I've ever seen. :rolleyes: All that spending just for the looks isn't worth it for a poor guy like me. I'll probably just add a GPU block to the loop when I can afford it.

The hardline fittings will be about £100, i will need 16x14mm OD. The plate itself is £329. If i'm lucky, i should get £50 for my old D5 pump and res though.

its not hard at all if you plan your runs well enough that you only need to do 1 to 2 bends per run. I eye ball everything, not much measuring needed really. Just get enough tubing if you mess up.

Yeah but I just don't see it worth it as I'd need to get new fittings, something to heat and bend the tubes etc., too much hassle and I could get something useful for that price. I do still admit that some loops with hardtubes look hella cool.

Soft tubing gives that cool olcschool vibe tho. :cool:
