On with the show! I did not really like the look of the filter mount so I had a scotch and this happened....
The filters are not permanently installed, but close.....
Mood shot.....
How about a look under the hood....
The only problem is that the filters will add about 2' of tubing to the CPU and GPU loop. However, I believe that the 4 D5's will be able to handle it.
I will probably paint the mounting plates black to match my floor.
Cheers...

Thanks to Martin my SATA breakout cable is sleeved, along with a few others, thanks Martin!
I know how to sleeve and I have done it, but Martin (psychoSleeve) is an artist! Martin can sleeve ten cables before I can pour a drink! 99% of what you see is Martin's sleeving. I am sleeving the easy stuff, flow sensors, fans, temp sensors, pumps, A5's and the regular SATA cables.
Here is a list of the cables to date;
MB: 24 Pin, 2 x 8pins and 2 x 4 Pins = 48 wires
VC: 3 x 8 Pin, 3 x 6 Pins = 42 wires
SSD: 6 SATA, 6 x4 Pins power = 30 wires
HDD: 3 SATA, 3 x 4 Pins power = 15 wires
Flow: 3 = 3 wires
Temp: 6 = 6 wires
Pumps: 4 x 2 & 1 x 1 = 9 wires
Fans: 12 + 6 extensions = 18 wires
A5 & PA2's: 6 x 4 Pins, 3 Aquabus & 3 USB's = 30 wires
That is a total of 201 wires! I still have the power, reset switches and lighting to do, and I have no idea what I will do for the lighting.
The plan for tomorrow is to finish all the connections to the A5's, PA2's, tubing to the filters and fill one loop and leak test. Nothing like blind ambition...

fantastic work so far, [H]omie!
Many thanks!
Unfortunately, it does!
I slapped in the A5's and the PA2's along with a bunch of cables....
Nice mess!
Then I did a little plumbing and cable pulling....
Every time I think I am getting close, I realize that I have a long way to go!
There is much cable management to do...
Cheers

i see them now
Yes, you must sleeve!
Many thanks!
A small update today; all but six cables are in the box. I did a few zip ties to get an idea of where I need to go, and I added the tubing from the filters.
Yep, still too messy...
However, most of the front is hidden, especially after I put the barn door on...
I was starting to feel good and stretching the tubing on the backside when I heard, snap, crackle, pop and it wasn't my cereal or an ice cube!
My acrylic filter plate broke! This was pilot error on my part. I cut my templates from 1/4" and use 3/8" for the final mount. I used 1/4" so I have to cut another one, no fun! I may use black acrylic this time...........
Cheers
BTW, Dogs do eat fish!

OK, so I cut another piece of acrylic and remounted the filters. I should have worn a mask....sneeze
I added the lights and of course one burned out...........
Mood shot....
The SS filters are very fine as you can see, and if I have any bad guys in the loop...:gunner2:

I nominate this build as [H]ardest on the forum... awesome work!
What lights are you using inside the Aqua filters? I have the same filter with Aqua's UV LED, and it's not nearly that bright.

Send Gary an e-mail. Many times he has things in stock that show out of stock.
