Not yet on this build. Just getting everything moved over into the h440 case I've had sitting here for almost a year. UPS screwed up an order so I've got 2 EK waterblocks sitting in their warehouse. Will post some up during the build. A buddy of mine is going to powder coat the copper tubing flat black so hoping this build will look pretty good once done.

You should dig through the forums to find my build log. I put the components from a cosmos 2 into and air 540 all water cooled. I even have some bare silicone to fap to. I had to back down my 3770k from 5Ghz to 4.7Ghz because of voltage fatigue.

In a couple more years I might do another build, until then my 5k rig will be enough.

@kaM

Here is a link for my first harrowing venture into custom watercooling..... mind you I thought I fried one of my cards during the testing phase....

you should also check out the show me your rig stickey!

obviously my is the most awesome because... the only thing that I didn't have in the build was an E series processor. When I built this the $1,ooo processor from the E series only offered about 5% more FPS. Considering how this will change in DX 12 I might upgrade the processor to one of the upcoming 12 core E series chips and keep everything else the same. IF I can get that 12 core chip close to 5Ghz I will have one hell of a beast on my hands.

Looks pretty good man. I love the air 540 since I'm a cable management freak. Even a step up to a 4790k should be able to yield 5.0+ easy if you get a decent chip and since you're comfortable deliding, should be able to crank that baby up high. I have mine under 1 360mm rad, and 1 240mm rad with a hand picked chip at 5.3 no problem but keep it at 4.8

Kam you need to post some pictures of your setup in the "Show you Rig" section. Like Nut said Pics or it never happened.

Sadly this is how it sits right now until the blocks & rest of it comes in Had to piece it out last month to help pay for some medical bills.
