Hi!!

First, sorry for my english, I'm french and make some mistakes. I will use a translator as much as possible to make as few mistakes, make me understand and understand your comments and suggestions.

This is my first real project in a box (I already assembled some configurations) but this time there will be installing a watercooling, cutouts, painting, sheathing .... For a first I attempt directly the big work.

subbed!

This loop setup is quite different and I am curious about the temp results! I am looking forward to your progress of this BEASTLY case!

With a case like this one, I have to make a beastly watercooling. As I said, it's my first watercooling and to have components, it's very hard here (Reunion Island) and expensive. Good computer stores are rare here and selling websites online that ship here are few and taxes are high. So, it takes lot of time to find all the components I need. :banghead:

Nevertheless, I'll still do my watercooling even if it takes time and money. :cool:

Are those waterblocks compatible with the layout of the his ice-q you want to buy? It seems like most gpu waterblocks are designed for reference cards.

ALMOSTunseen · Jan 2, 2013

Looks great! We love french modders. Also, may I ask, where do you get your parts from?

It was a hard work to find the good graphic card compatible with this waterblock. First, I searched for PCB's reference cards, but all the model (first generation) are not in stock, and only the MSI was, but I saw there was a lot of problem with this card.
I know HIS are good 7970's cards so I looked for the good one. After long seachs, mails...I had, at least, my response. With HIS' cards, the references wit ...2M are PCB reference (all video ports on 1 line). H797QM3G2M , H797QMT3G2M and H797QMC3G2M are PCB reference.

And... techpowerup.com said

Both cards use blue-colored AMD reference-design PCBs

Merci. Et oui, un FR qui traine dans le coin, et en plus, un FR de La Réunion

You junky

babouk100 · Jan 26, 2013

Not the choice. It's very hard to have watercooling elements here. 1 week minimum between order and delivery :banghead:

. More is better than less

babouk100 · Feb 4, 2013

Small change in the choice of pieces that make up the WC.
I'll give my cpu wb EK to my brother and I, for my part, will order the XSPC Raystorm

babouk100 · Feb 5, 2013

Found a reseller here in Reunion for the XSPC Raystorm, and I bought it. I'll take it tomorrow at the shop.

babouk100 · Feb 6, 2013
