Key Features:
Intel CPU NVIDIA Graphics Water-cooled
System Specs:
  • TT S71 Urban Chasis, MSI Mpower z87 Mobo, Core I7 4770k, 16gb G Skill sniper 2400mhz, EVGA Hydro Copper gtx 780, Seasonic Modular X series 760w Gold PSU, Creative Soundblaster ZXR, Samsung 128gb 830 SSD, 3TB WD Black, Swiftech H220, 2 Silenx fans +2 cougar fans.
Performed Mods:
The Only modification I have done was the dissection of the H220 and adding my VGA into the loop, I will also be adding another rad later on to help lower my temps some more. Edit: I have since now added another 120mm xspc rad, ek reservoir. I will leave the original photos up as well.
I thought water cooling would be a difficult thing but thanks to this forum and a few others I have read a lot of the concerns and even watched a few custom loops being built here to help me on my build...Just want to say thanks to the TPU community.

Why are all the picture cut off at the top, like you can only see like half the build in most of them, or theres multiple pictures of the same thing.

Nice setup- I like the match between the color of your tubing and the trim on the board :)

Thanks, I'm actually going to change it drastically tonight when I get home. Just bought another rad, res, compression fittings and some tubing.
I never really saw anyone doing anything yellow before and I just wanted to be a little different.

thanks, the motherboard decided my final color choice. I was wondering if I should keep this case or go get a 900d and never have to really run out of space ever again.
