Petra's own PT-Nuke Biocide PH Neutral (non acidic) cause I'm going straight distilled water for this build. To prevent the growth of algae in my loop only need a couple drops of this.

Oh.....What's this? a handwritten message from Petra's, seems they didn't have enough C molding for 10 feet. Well no matter, I'll get it shipped to me later when they get stock, no rush. Petra's customer service still awesome, how often do you get a hand written message from the place you ordered from? Thanks for the individual service Petra's, shows they care about their customers. :)

Back to the goodies....Mounted fans on the rad with Radbox, looking good!

State of the case right now....I have removed the front hard drive brackets to make more room for the pump and maybe future 2 radiators in that spot. I'm not sure I like the wheels though, they change the case's center of gravity and can easily tip over, I'll probably find a set of stationary feet for the case.

Thats it for now, not sure when I'm gonna have time to work on the case again as life is getting quite busy.

I've done a lot of desktop construction before, but NOTHING compared to this.

Looking forward to see it come to completion :laugh:
 
Mini Update May 14th,

I've drilled the holes ready for the radiator tubes to be piped in as well as added window molding around the panel and put the window on.

that is one sexy case. Im not joking. it looks like something i want to do with my new computer
 
Due to some unseen circumstances I need to cancel my build, and sell off my motherboard and ram. I might continue this sometime in the future but life currently has its issues and problems. Hopefully I will see this build come together in the future. Thanks for your support eGO.
 
:(

well, hope everything goes well with the unseen circumstance. if its possible in that situation....
