How do you get 30+ votes when your build doesn't even have final pictures. Or a final build at all. Or am i missing something here?

Small extra before the final post.
Found some plexi from a previous project which will come to good use
 

 
 
Sawing, sanding and polishing.
 

 
 
And done
 

Finally the last fittings also arrived.
 

 
 
So I could finish the last part of the loop.
 

 

 

 
 
And testing if everything still works ..
 

 
 
Time to fill it up
 

 
 
Always exciting
 

 
 
Not a single leak
 

 
 
Next thing is also very exciting ... is the hardware still working?
 

 
 
Awesome when you see on first boot "CPU Fan speed error detected"
That's good
 

 
 
And so the glass panel goes up
 

 
 
Chair also fits perfectly
One last small update and then ... final pics!
 

And another update!
 
Almost used all the fittings.
 

 
 
But glad some extra are on the way.
 

 
 
So first some more cable management.
 

 
 
So also the Displayport, keyboard and mouse cable.
 

 

 
 
Done!
 

 
 
Checking if everything still works.
 

 

 
 
Also received a flowmeter to check out.
 

 
 
Funny mirroring seen from bottom.
 

 
 
I guess white isn't too bad either.
 

The loop. Finally!
 
First some pads underneath the GPU's
 

 
 
And the first fittings and pipe
 

 

 
 
Works like a charm
 

 

 

 
 
Should become something like this.
 

 
 
But still lots to do.
 

 

Time to mount the blocks!
 

 
 
I always love these
 

 
 
2 hours later.
 

 

 
 
I'm working with several controllers for fans and lighting and want to have them in groups.
Fans - Top lighting - Bottom lighting
Need multiple cables and extensions from side to side through the 'powerbar'
 

 
 
Like this
 

 

 
 
Also want some cable managements, all extra cable out of sight in the P5
 

 

 
 
Done!
 

More drilling, cutting, filing and sanding.
 
 

 
 
Came up with an little idea to bring 12V for fans, pump and lighting to the right side of the desk. 
 

 
 
Picked up the laminated glas panel for the Tt d3sk.
 

 
 
Also picked up something awesome to complete this desk setup
 

 
 
Back to the 'powerbar'
 

 
 
2 molex lines directly from PSU to the right side.
 

 
 
Some wire management inside the P5
 

 
 
Test
 

 

 
 
Shortening the massive steel poles which will hold the glass panel.
 

 
 
I just found out where my safety glasses were
 

 
 
Few to go.
 

 
 
Going to test the hardware without liquidcooling. Very excited!
 

 

 
 
I never thought about the ROG logo from the Asus PG348 ... normally it shines ON your desk ... 
I like the effect!
 

Thanks bud!
 
I planned the whole weekend for measuring, cutting, drilling, filing, sanding etc
 

 

 

 

 
 
Ahh yes .. what I've been waiting for!
 

 
 
One arm should be able to hold 63kg.
 

 
 
Not much left of the internals.
 

 
 
Bottom shot
 

 
 
So lets cut! (tried the dremel once again .. screw that)
 

 

 

 

 
 
Cover plate for right side of the desk where normally the mainboard goes
 

 

 

 
 
More filing needed
 

 
 
And holes
 

 
 
Also countersinking the PSU
 

 

 

 

 
 
Sorry, I don't like stickers ^^
 

 
 
Rads also more inside
 

 
 
More holes, drilling and sanding.
 

 
 
Just had to test the fans
 

 

The hardware!
 

 
 
Best looking mainbaord ever.
 

 
 
The power.
 

 
 
Avexir memory
 

 
 
Lovely ssd.
 

 
 
GPU power.
 

 
 
More power
 

 
 
Some shots together.
 

 

 

 

 
 
Cleaned up the modcave where it's all going to happen.
 

 
Time for some modding!

Lets kick off with the first big update
 

 
 
Unpacking .. Awesome!
 

 
 
The P5's
 

 
 
480 Rads
 

 
 
Plenty of pump power.
 

 

 
 
Reservoirs
 

 
 
Lots of fans.
 

 
 
Cpu and Strix blocks
 

 
 
Not sure yet if and how much I will use it, but a bending kit
 

 
 
It will be a mixture of PETG and nickelplated brass
 

 
 
All unpacked
 

 

 

 

 
 
So shiny!
 

 
 
The gaming gear! Off course needed to complete a desk.
 

 
 
First steps, mounting the fans.
 

 
 
And sleeving the pumps.
 

 
 
Just trying to imagine myself how it would look.
 

 

 
 
Sawing mounting rails for the desk
 

 
 
Will be using regular shelve holders to mount the desk to the wall
 

 
 
The idea
 

 
 
More next time
 

Hi everyone!
 
Let me first introduce myself
 
I’m Peter Brands, 35 years young and from a little town in the middle of The Netherlands called Urk.
I’m an electrician, and mostly active on trawlers, vessels and luxury yachts.
I’ve been an online gamer and hardware enthusiast since 1995 where I got my online nick ‘L3p’ and started modding in 2009.
Some might know me from my desk-pc builds ‘L3p D3sk’ and 'Cross Desk' or scratch build ‘L3pipe’.
 
I have to admit I'm not really a competitive casemodder, more a passionate liquidcooling enthusiast.
But with the Tt P5 and the idea I have as you can see in the banner I just couldn't resist
