Thanks, anyway the water cooling took me like 5months to get it just right I went through 2pumps and this one worked the best. Also cabling was very bad so I cleaned my pc with my air compresor and finnaly got to work on the cabling and the fact that a like a clean case

Watch out! Are those white cable ties for securing the hoses? That's terrible. You need jubilee clips. The cable ties are not strong enough to ensure unpullable connections! Fix it fast before a disaster! 1/10 before 7/10 after fix.

Your talking about the zip ties right because there just as thight as any clamp and they have been on there forever and never leaked yet plus metal clamps are to big to put on my cpu water block. What would you recomend send me a link ok.

The zip ties are useless. Their exertion pressure (clamping pressure) is not much > zero. Metal clips are ok... just get size "000"

One of a kind setup you have there m8...
Just like Completely Bonkers said to use metal clamps will work much better than cable ties.
I gave you 8/10 for presentation.
Good luck with the water cooling....

Good effort, I would get rid of the cable ties on block and turn it 90* you will have trapped air in the block @ the top, thus giving not the best cooling ;)
