Now im going to share my thoughts on what i am going to do with this, i was thinking of using some white perspex to cover the front hole that i have created today. once i do that i would like to add some Thermaltake blue led  ring fans on the inside of the front panel where i will mount the radiator.

now im hoping that this will give a nice blue glow through the white perspex :-) please let me know your thoughts on this mod!

Here is a quick update on how the KLEVV Cras DDR4 looks like when its in a system.

These KLEVV cras memory modules are all metal construction, and huge. I would defiantly say that these are some of the best modules on the market up their with the big brands such as Corsair Dominator Platinum's.

A big shout out to Thermaltake for supporting this build. They hooked me up with some great water cooling products and i could not have done this with out them. here are a couple photos of what they sent over.

Ok so today i started on cutting the PSU shroud to fit since the Pacific R360 radiator from Thermaltake is mounted on the inside of the case.

I also cut a hole for the D5 pump to fall into since i needed room to access the top inlets on the Thermaltake res.

After mounting the D5 pump and res into the PSU shroud i noticed it made the PSU shroud sag in that corner so i had to come up with a idea on how to support it. i used the current res mounts in the fractal design define S case to hold some little brackets i made from L shape aluminium.

They worked great and once i vinyl wrap the PSU cover you will not notice them at all.

I have an idea to mount the KLEVV ssds on top of the PSU shroud. I have cut the vinyl under where i would like to mount the ssds so i can create a cool lighting effect that will hopefully put a nice glow around the ssds. to help with this i have mounted the ssds on top of another clear piece of perspex.
