So I finally ordered my watercooling parts to go into my 800d and am just hoping I got everything set straight.

My Stuff:

[URL="http://www.jab-tech.com/YATE-LOON-120mm-Case-Fan-D12SM-12-Medium-Speed-pr-3770.html"]4 x YATE LOON 120mm Case Fan - D12SM-12 - Medium Speed[/URL]
4 x YATE LOON 120mm Case Fan - D12SL-12 - Low Speed
EK Supreme HF block
XSPC RX 480 rev.2
EK Advanced 250 res x2
EK 470 Block
PT Nuke but not sure If I should have bought this one instead
Bitspower D5 / MCP655 Mod
Black 6/32 screws for rad

All in all I spent about 840 on everything including shipping. Thankfully I didn't have to pay tax, I would have been mad to since it would have been another 80, lol. Hard to believe it cost me this much, but I did get a little extra bling.

Let me know what you guys think. I will probably make a little build log once everything comes in and to show my setup. I'm just hoping I got the right stuff. It will currently be in my q6600 build which is oc'd @ 3.2, but I will definitely raise the clock with water, and I will also oc the hell out of my 470. Eventually, I will probably add an i7, but that's probably going to be next year if I even need it.

That's a ton of tubing, especially at $1.60/ft., but I guess you'll have plenty to spare for later.

If you were actually ordering some parts from Jab-Tech, I might have opted for the Thermochill PA120.4 for $99.95 rather than the XSPC for $115. They perform about the same, but the Thermochills are built like a tank.

As for the PT Nuke, either is fine. I prefer going with a silver coil instead because I don't like to add chemicals, but again that's just personal preference and not a huge deal.

All in all, looks good.
 
That rad does look decent, and not sure but it appears to be thinner than the rx. Too late now, but I can't wait to get everything setup once it gets here.
 
Looks like it will be very nice. Put up a pic once you've got it installed. Are you putting the quad 120 on the bottom or top of your case?
 
I'm putting it in the top along with the bitspower radguard. I will have to cut a nice hole in the case which I'm not too thrilled about. It's all good though, I just need to make a bunch of measurements and make sure I don't cut out too much, lol.
 
I have seen his build, it's basically what gave me the idea of going with teh quad rad inside of the case and still keep it clean looking.

I would like to know how close he had to cut towards the slant of the air vent. In one pic it showed a big flat space between the tape and grill, but in another it showed very little. I guess he was cutting from the side to the other side and not back to front where there was more metal showing. Eventually too I really want to make the window square because I absolutely hate the slant currently, I don't need my case to advertise it's a sail for corsair, lol. It looks like I can just take out a piece of the metal which makes it curve, but there are no screws in the corner about 8 inches in both directions so if I take out that metal, I'm not sure how the window would stay in place well after that.
 
I'm really liking the quad rad up top. Did you cut the top of the 800D to fit such a radiator.

I would of went with the New thermochill TA series i have an older HE and PA 120.3 love them and prob just keep them unless i decide to go quad rad.

I haven't cut my case yet, but that's how I'm going to have mine look, as long as I don't screw it up, haha. A guy in Japan actually did that to his in the pic and his build log is here.
