Initially attempted to hard tube with stainless 3/8" Link: http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/showthread.php?t=140548. Although the tube bending was actually working out as planned, the rigidity of the tube placed to much pressure on the rads and water blocks, hence why the attempt was abandoned. Flexible tubing in the end proved a better choice.

Just another BAD ASS Obsidian Build!

Nice work mate!
 
Very nice. Clean and anonymous, but i miss a little spark to it. Nice hardware :d
il vote 8 or 9 maybe. Yeah 9 for superb for thats what it is. Good work.
 
9 !!!! very nice , subtle lighting would look nice =]
 
Bloody great build, Nice and clean. 9 for sure!
 
That.
Is.
So.
SEXY!
 
I know this is old but I like the simplicity and minimal look. You've done some very clean modding here. I am planning on doing full water in my 800D this summer. I just haven't had the time yet. 2 weeks vacation + 800D and a bunch of money = fun project.

10/10 - this is my favorite style of build!
 
clean

nice and clean that's how i like em very well done one of the nicest ones Ive seen.
