Depending on the GPU's, I would have thought a triple rad was a little bit on the small side for cooling. Maybe you could look into a bigger rad? or have more than one rad/loop? Or keep the H70 for the CPU and run the custom loop on the GPU's only.

Enjoy the WCing mate You will love it.

Got delayed a little bit since the Vertex 4 I was going to use basically died after updating the firmware, so I'm still using the old SATA II SSD. But anyways, here she is!

Sorry for the strange lighting. I'll try to take some daytime shots in a few weeks when the replacement SSD comes.







I decided to try out a top-down cooling method with the H100. Figured it would work better if it's pulling fresh air from the outside rather than warmed air from inside the case. A quick look shows 28C stock idle, so it seems to be working.




Also, OH MY GOD the pump is annoying. It sounds just like a dying hard drive with the scratching.

That's odd... I have an H100 and I cant hear the pump at all.

Nice setup liking the white case.

The H60/80/100 suffer from bearing issues. Corsair just recently owned the fact that there is a problem and will be releasing information soon on how to RMA. My H60 is loud as all get out (slowing the pump and tapping the unit silences it until its rebooted), and upon closer inspection my H100 has a slight 'seeking' noise (probably not worth the hassle of RMAing it- but who knows).

Ah shit, what great luck I have. I'll worry about that later. Gotta deal with this OCZ RMA for now.

Looks fantastic

The red SATA cables do a nice job of pulling everything together in a common theme. Too bad Corsair leaves the stub ends of the ugly yellow PSU cables bare.
