Recommended Posts

First time posting here, please forgive me if i posted the wrong format.

Brief introduction of myself: Im currently a student, casual pc enthusiast who love watercooling too much and started a little bit of modding as a hobby. Got my first ever sponsor from Andy Thermaltake using my first ever build as a proposal (View 71 - JY71, build video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tb3BALoAl4Y&lc=z23xdhowhybterurz04t1aokg52qnykfhp5bfgcsc0cbrk0h00410). Big fan of thermaltake, great products, got sponsorship, dream comes true, life is complete :D.

Core p90 is such an excellent chassis and i'm so fortunate to get this chassis from thermaltake. No doubt 101% effort is going to put into this build! Mod on!

Meow. Decided to cut out a part of the chassis and make radiator mounting using aluminium frame.

Bend dem tubes! Always my favourite part of building a pc, which is watercooling. Thermaltake V-Tubler is superb to work with!

Spray paint the chassis to black for cleaner look and prevent rusting.

These are reservoirs mount made of stainless steel. Main idea is to make sure all the watercooling gears can be seen at the first glance of the build. These brackets will enable reservoirs to be mounted in an angle where they can be seen at the first sight and to create a "floating reservoir" effect.

Underestimated how difficult is it to drill holes on stainless steel. Went to a local metal workshop to borrow a bench drill press. So appreciate for his help, hopefully i can repay him someday soon.

Spray painted radiators into chrome to make better contrast for the build.

This is by far one of the most amazing builds I've seen. I'm actually trying to replicate it, purchased all of the fittings, pumps, reservoirs, radiators, fans shown here and in the video but struggling with understanding what you're using at the top of the case to connect the G1/4 right angle to the chrome compression fitting inside... ? Also if you could point me where you got those amazing chrome bars that would be helpful.
