Tri SLI - ASUS - i7 build 3-3-11

Days 2 and 3 of my new build... (first part here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bVFwYVnN_M) ...Silly fine thread screws... holdin' me back man! Not cool! Why can't they use the same thread as everyone else? Oh well. I'll get it figured out. No big deal.

After playing with the tubing for a while, I'm starting to realize how little space there really is in this case... But I'm up for the challenge!

where is the new vid?

[ArmedZagi]

@NightWolfEditing Editing it right now... You'll see in the next video, but, I had some bad luck with the new hardware and wound up waiting on RMA shenanigans...

Those look like metric threads, M3 probably. Good luck with the build, should look sweet.

[ArmedZagi]

@McWeirdbeard Good eyes man... they were M3.

[NightWolfEditing]

why a bay res, use a reservoir thats mounted to a radiator

[ArmedZagi]

@NightWolfEditing Not enough room in the case for a combo rad/res. I actually ordered a different bay res today because of size issues. Also ordered all new smaller Bitspower fittings and smaller Feser hose. Will probably upload the next part on Wednesday or Thursday. The reservoir that I have coming in really is pretty special, think you guys will like it :)

@ArmedZagi Its sad that Intel is going to release the new LGA 2011 in the end of this year. Im thinking of selling my I7 920 setup and go for 2600K which is faster and more energy efficient.
