awww sif no EK clear SLI bridge, personally i think that's when the ek blocks start to look good.

Interested to see how you route tubing on there.

I'll be using the Acetal Bridge, I'm not a fan of the clear EK blocks :o
The tubing will be tough, can't expect it to look amazing :(

Just ran the cables in a test fit manner, they still need to be tweaked to achieve a clean look, but I'm happy with them currently while the build is progressing.
Hit a snag on the RAM block, it appears I have to wait for my thermal pads to arrive , expecting them early tomorrow.

Pretty happy with the centralized 5.24" Bay has turned out, look sharp and when loaded out i think it will be a nice touch :)
Oh well here's a few photo's...

Graphics cards have arrived, waterblocks installed, SLI bridge installed.
Look's amazing, cleanest looking build so far.

Oh this thing, with the cards installed is as tall as a ATX case :o

:D

I thought about using it, all depends on how the loop turns out.
The main reason i didn't want to use it from the beginning, you have to bend a few caps to fit the damn block =/

Yeah they can complicate the loop with all of those fittings in such a tight space, it's why I never bothered with a block. But I figured since you do well with those you might.

It's a pretty expensive block too, $150 AU for a non CSQ design, mm not sure.
But yeah i don't want to over-complicate the loop especially with EK fittings, bulky enough as it is.
