i second that, the colour of the tubes really dampens the whole thing. it should have been one straight colour

Both loops transfer a lot of heat. the i7 n the northbridge is hot on their own, let alone the gtx280s. That's why I run the dual loop.

I am sorry my mistake (and my question was dual loop on the graphics because I though it is a dual but after close inspection I saw it is an odd single ) ... any way why did you use 2 90degree fittings on the second card especially from the first to the second card

8/10 it looks great and I like the mods but the tubes make it look messy if you could clean it up some that would be awesome. Other than that this PC looks great!!! keep it up!

very very nice. i luv how that looks. and the colors of red and orange are very brigth and apparent, and a nice change over green or the common blue. very nicely done 10/10 in my book. Did you actually custom paint that? if so that was a really great job on it as well.

no space :D Between the first card n the second card, without a 90 degree rotating barb like dat, i wont be able to put the tubing into the card. I had no choice but to do it since the blocks didnt line up n I cant connect them together.

Looks really amazing good work! My opinion for the tubing/inside: Try to make it as red as you can.
