haha I have good eyes and I used a head torch when installing this after work today:

 

EK-XRES 140 Revo D5 PWM pump and reservoir.

 

the coolant looks sick! then in 3 months I gotta flush and change it hahahaha

 

gonna move the reservoir at some point, you might notice it is directly on top of the computers power supply LOL.... thinking of drilling and bolting it to the clear side panel of the case but it would be so annoying when I need to remove the side panel.

apparently it doesn't last that long and if I leave it much longer I'll have to take apart the whole loop.

 

just as im showing off the cool new setup the water block started pissing water everywhere over the graphics card. got in there at the perfect moment to pull power, dried it all up and computers all good again hahaha. it was funny cause I was trying to find the leak and then I touched the fitting and it started leaking heavily.

 

Had to remove the motherboard I/O shield with it still in place to access the fitting to tighten it... cause I couldn't be bothered removing the block from the cpu.

moved the reservoir well away from power supply and spent $200 on RGB fans haha.

 

forgot to get a PWM fan splitter as not enough headers on motherboard.

 

this'll be the third visit to the same shop in 2 days.
