Soft tubing though..

 

[Jonnathon Clayton]

that loop could be tightened up, but not bad for your first, but where are your fans?

 

[Pasin Jo Chuthithanapong]

Where're your radiator fans?

 

[Tim Woodworth]

I ordered the same gpu block. Is there a reason why they covered up a third of the front with that plate?

 

[John Wasch]

Does that case come with a PSU shroud?

 

[Joel Varuska]

Getting a different top for my reservoir and going to try and figure out a different way to mount it lol.

 

[Stephen Steinlein]

Its not great, but its not terrible either.

Few tips for the future:

Never use the builds PSU to test and fill the loop. Get a cheap throwaway psu for that. A couple bucks at a 2nd hand shop.

Cable management AFTER the final fill and flow test. When you start using custom cables, saves the hassle of spilling fluid on them.

Try and get the pump to the lowest point of the build. Saves a headache when draining the loop.

My qualifier. This is my second open loop.

lol all this waste of money and time can be saved by using a noctua air cooler

[Pieter Verwindt]

Soft tubing so dangerous

 

[Ariel Hanz Zimler]

.....You gotta watercool that PSU. It's all or nothing.

 

[Simon Isnard]

this wont last a day at my place. lizard will kill it

 

[Reece Goddard]

Soft tubing looks aweful in that case. It has nothing to do with your build or anything just the runs look messy af. I have a P3 because I am currently not nothing with a custom loop

 

[Riley Branson]

[Abdullah Wahbi]
