your hardware is Awesome, your attention to detail is lacking. Going by what I've seen with other water setups,, I feel your system could look a lot better then it does. other then all that,, I still think it's a kick-ass build.

Thanks. This is my first attempt at watercooling. Was built by me and a m8. Going to be in CustomPC mag soon, but that is with tri-sli not the quad-sli that is shown in main pic.

Yeah its an EK. Seems to be ok. Getting high temps when overclocking about 4.4ghz so i may have to reapply the TIM or rearrange the rads.

There will be more to come. UltraNova is getting picked up today so i will try and get some photos asap.

I always liked the understated look. Clean, simple and helluva performance. 10/10 from me.

Cheers. Havin nearly finished the second project out of the Nova series.

Here is UltraNova

The insides from SuperNova went into this case and the hardware from UltraNova went into SuperNova as i found UltraNova's case looked better.

The side by side pics of both systems.
