I am 57 Years Old and this is my first attempt at builiding a fully watercooled system. So i thought one step furhter and put two watercooling systems on, one for the CPU & RAM. Other for motherboard and HDD. I also have 3 x 24" monitors running in SLI mode, as you can see from the photos, just love building. i dont go out much but this keeps me busy. Spent near £2500 on the Tower alone and another £1000 on monitors, keyboard, mice etc.. plus you can see the front of the PC is fully kitted out. tell me what you think, thankyou.

really? you are 57 years old?
actually i like the front case but the tubing is kinda crowded, you could make the loop more simple and you need to improve your cable management

I also agree that the tubing is crowded and also there are a lot of unnecessary components - the front panels.

I agree with you, i just wanted to fill the drives bays. these are the best i could find at the time, i could take alot of this stuff away and probably increase my PC's performance but I'm not a gamer. just doing it as a hobby. Thankyou for your comment. Granville.

Out of curiosity: Wht do people feel a need to "fill the drive bays"? I see this sometimes and it's baffling to me.
