Stuff stuff stuff!<br><br>

Lots of EK goodies<br><img alt="nw2hMl.jpg" class="bbcode_img" src="http://i.imgur.com/nw2hMl.jpg"><br><img alt="wr3qgl.jpg" class="bbcode_img" src="http://i.imgur.com/wr3qgl.jpg"><br><br>

What really struck me, was the amount of packaging material and accessories EK provides in all of there stuff. Different sizes of screws for radiators, cable adapters for the pumps, high-quality stop fittings for their reservoirs and radiators, and the waterblock for the 7870 came with a nice little addapter to put the watercooling ports on the side of the block. All of this is really nice as some companies try to nickel and dime people to death with things that you have to purchase in addition. It's nice to see that EK isn't doing that with their stuff.<br><br>

Monsoon stuff too!<br><img alt="ybkhDl.jpg" class="bbcode_img" src="http://i.imgur.com/ybkhDl.jpg"><br>

These rotary fittings are awesome. They are a little bulkier than others out there, but they have a great finish to them, and you can use "colored accent disks" to customize their look. They are also available with light port fittings should you be using clear tubing. That way you can have LED color go throughout your tubing if you don't want to use dyes in your loop.<br><br><img alt="m9SCfl.jpg" class="bbcode_img" src="http://i.imgur.com/m9SCfl.jpg"><br><img alt="EiECAl.jpg" class="bbcode_img" src="http://i.imgur.com/EiECAl.jpg"><br>

These light ports are AWESOME! They come with lenses in them, and there's ZERO light bleed from the back end of it. They come with two cables and depending on the color of fitting you get, you get different colored sleeved wire. I already have different cables going into these for a yellow/amber LEDs. Damn, do they look nice mounted!<br><img alt="PGj34l.jpg" class="bbcode_img" src="http://i.imgur.com/PGj34l.jpg"><br><br>

I removed the 140mm fan on the HDD cage and mounted the reservoir here.<br><img alt="vOVeUl.jpg" class="bbcode_img" src="http://i.imgur.com/vOVeUl.jpg"><br><br><img alt="a57Sql.jpg" class="bbcode_img" src="http://i.imgur.com/a57Sql.jpg"><br>

Ooooh, big box! What's in it?<br><img alt="bTMX5l.jpg" class="bbcode_img" src="http://i.imgur.com/bTMX5l.jpg"><br>

Just a couple of M3 rods and some thumb nuts....<br><br>

I've got to cut the rods into segments for radiator screws. I use a dremel to cut them one by one.<br><img alt="4drkml.jpg" class="bbcode_img" src="http://i.imgur.com/4drkml.jpg"><br><img alt="YPUEnl.jpg" class="bbcode_img" src="http://i.imgur.com/YPUEnl.jpg"><br><br>

Mounting the EK 360mm radiator to the top<br><img alt="XENOYl.jpg" class="bbcode_img" src="http://i.imgur.com/XENOYl.jpg"><br><img alt="XPyx4l.jpg" class="bbcode_img" src="http://i.imgur.com/XPyx4l.jpg"><br><img alt="D15cEl.jpg" class="bbcode_img" src="http://i.imgur.com/D15cEl.jpg"><br><br>

And test mounting the fans. The mounting rods are a little jagged, so after I'm sure that they are the appropriate length and will meet my needs, I'll go back and file them so they are nice and smooth.<br><img alt="K3SlBl.jpg" class="bbcode_img" src="http://i.imgur.com/K3SlBl.jpg"><br><img alt="yNjEOl.jpg" class="bbcode_img" src="http://i.imgur.com/yNjEOl.jpg"><br><br>

Big, beefy EK XTX 240 radiator in the bottom.<br><img alt="RUhQCl.jpg" class="bbcode_img" src="http://i.imgur.com/RUhQCl.jpg"><br><br>

Pump mounted and connected to a reservoir<br><img alt="33miyl.jpg" class="bbcode_img" src="http://i.imgur.com/33miyl.jpg"><br><img alt="Rq2YWl.jpg" class="bbcode_img" src="http://i.imgur.com/Rq2YWl.jpg"><br><br><br>

That's all for now, will update again tomorrow, now I have to get to doing some more modding!
