Talking O'l Blue gets a Nip and Tuck (Build Log)

Well here I go again.... This will most likely be the last major overhaul in this case. I plan to shift my builds to more of a Case Modding type builds.... New stuff, things I have floating in my mind....

I feel I have mastered the "Buy parts & Make it look sexy" type builds... And I am done buying the new cards every two months.... Knowing I can always achieve the top ten here and top 15 on HWbot is a truer testament to the product than my ability... But it was fun while I did it!

So this build is mainly about trying some new products that hit the shelves the past few weeks and trying new ideas. These ideas rotate around a smaller footprint with water cooling parts while maintaining ans acceptable temp level for 24/7 use with lower than air noise.

Will I acheive it? No idea.. But that is the very reason I want to try!!

I have not yet decided if I will go RED with the tubing or keep the Blue.... What I want to do is Purple, but I have a zero tolerence for the water color fluids. So I will have to wait for Feser or someone to come out with a good hose and more colors...

So what color should I do? Red or Blue?

Here are the new parts I am going to use in this face lift....

A Dual Pump/Dual Res assembly.... (Link)
(2) MCP 355 Pumps.. (Link)
(5) Kaze 3000 120x38 fans (Link)
(5) Scythe 120x25 fans (Link)
Corsair GT 2000's (Link)
(2) GTX285 Vanilla's (Link)
(2) Danger Den Version 2 GTX285 Blocks (Link)
Feser X-Changer Dual 120 (Link)
BIX 360 (Link)


The rest is parts I have been using and enjoy.... I hope you all enjoy this build as I plan to while doing it! Oh... And this time I paid for fast shipping and it all better show up on time!!!
