Maybe if your answer would be clear, then maybe I could answer you adequately.

I'm done with your trolling, I'll just draw you a diagram, maybe then you'll understand, wait... I don't think that'll even be enough for you.

First, you said "So there will only be 5 fans split between the 2 Hubs?"

I said there will be 9 fans. That's answering your question directly.

Second, no I'm not using a Y-Splitter, I've never talked about one, I've already stated numerous times what I'll be using.

This is seriously the last message I direct towards you unless you can asks well formulated questions that have not been answered previously multiple times.

Thank you.

80mm be quiet * 4 to PWM hubs. Doesn't matter to which, they will run 100% (running as exhaust running over the power supplies)
120mm Phanteks PWM * 2 to PWM hub1 (for radiator 1)
140mm Phanteks PWM * 2 to PWM hub2 (for radiator 2)
Optional 92mm in the back as additional intake.

Ends up with 8 fans total. The front ones aren't sized to 120mm on this picture, and more stuff isn't done, it's an early render of the case.

Does this clear up anything?

I'm not sure where I'll mount the phanteks PWM hubs yet because I don't know exactly where I'll be mounting them. So I cannot tell you on which hub the fans will be connected.

I think you are amazing for being so patient. I prefer the patient approach, and just wait and watch/read quietly your current project. As you are obviously busy with your build and for you to even explain in such great detail is kinda amazing and kind.

I think faster than I can patiently explain. Vroom vroom and my project is done, and I rather do the explaining after my project in complete.

Thank you so much for taking your time in sharing. Love the ideas!

Little update, things are getting done Lots of work to do with a two week deadline!! Tube combs galore

Also, it kind of hurts modifying a custom made case, but it needs to be done!

that 2nd hose from the top coming thru the MB back plate just doesnt look right as it is. Maybe add a 135 degree elbow, like the ones coming off the Video card, add a second one to top fitting to keep up aesthetics.

I actually like the tube look without the elbow joints, the tubes get more emphasis than the clunky joints. A more homogenous look of tubes and motherboard than clunky joints, of course just my opinions

I will, I share the same opinion as you about this.

What I will actually do, is print wider tube combs for that portion so it goes in straight instead of how it seems to be going in crooked right now. I will also be reversing the bottom two.

 

[DeathtoGnomes]

i dont think wider tube combs would as necessary if you get the tube angles closer together.

Nice!!

Getting moar done! pump installed and plumbed. Missing a ST30 280 because I realized because of the Z170 board 8-pin location, it simply will not fit with the 45mm thick. Also missing the reservoir from Frozen-Q.

Last picture update before the final shots! This build has so many cables, it's proving to be quite a challenge, with the help of my 3D printer, it makes it easier!

[Duality92]

Final update! I hope everyone that followed is excited as I am about this build, I really loved how it turned out! Cheers!

Understated lighting on a beautiful build, I love it!

Understated lighting on a beautiful build, I love it!

Thanks!

While almost every single build right now contains rigid tubing and overkill lighting, I went for a more subtle lighting and organized soft tubing

How are temps with the way you have things plumbed?
