It's been a while since I messed with my water cooled system and yesterday I did a bit of a clean up, some wiring issue also done. The system had a bit of gunk inside of it, still trying to figure what caused it as I cleaned everything before I put it in and it might be because I've been using too much Pentosin in it. If anyone could tell me what it is, let me know. I ordered new lines and cleaned everything. Hopefully this gunk doesn't show up again and I'm using all copper so it's not material incompability.

Here are the pics and critics are welcome which I'll use pointers to better my system.

Here you can see that same gunk in the lines as I also installed the 60X10MM fan on the northbrige HSF

Reinstalled the Cards and you can noticed that one of the cards has a delrin top which I put on because the clear one cracked on me for some reason. It happened when my fans failed and temps got up a big hot and I wasn't home.

Here is a shot of the new lines installed and also my Dtek Fusion block that I had for a while. Works great and under there is a Intel Q9450 overclocked to 3.4GHZ.

A shot of how I hid the MB Power cables from the back and also Video card cables. Yes, the rest is not neatly yet as I havent' received my sleeving kit yet. Can anyone tell me how to hide that mess up top by the PSU or any tips. It will be greatly appreciated.

Finished system, without the water in it still. You can tell by the tubes. Anyways, tell me what you think of the system and I know the the wiring needs to be done neatly which I will try to fix once I get the sleeves in.
 
Hey that looks great!!
I like it :D

How did you clean your EK block? What did you use?
