Oh. So your drain port is the valve, you added a plug to prevent it from leaking if pump is running. So to drain. Remove the plug and turn the valve to drain?
My hdd cage shld be hanging below the 5.25 bay. Then my ut60 will be flat on the bottom of the case. My 140x2 fans in front will be intake to feed air.

I thinking of Aqc 450ml with adapter and d5 pump. Need to measure the height. Maybe need to mod a bit. The res and bump shld be hanging on top of my rad.

Thought of putting the pump direct on top of the bottom rad and the res will have tubes to fit the pump. Lol

I would be opening the stop plug, insert fitting to tube and open drain valve to drain. I added the stop plug to make it look nicer nia, since i dun wanna see a "hole", lol.

U can mount the ut60 at the bottom, just take note of the height u need for your res since u still gt top rad as well. XT45 + 25mm fans will have 70mm from ceiling. So, i believe the 450ml res will be a tight fit. Still need to consider ur fill port.

Oh ya. Then bo bian liao. Haha I see the dimensions of the aqc 450ml is 170mm ht. EK 250 is 250mm.

Not sure the Aqc correct anot.

Could be since the diameter is 80mm instead of 60mm.

From the pics of aqc pump top, there are some which allows their pump to be mounted directly onto the pump top. So, take note when buying.

Sometimes, going all cheap isnt that good...You can consider EK X3 250mm res as well.

Yup. Haha but EK is acrylic. Going glass, try xspc. Haha
My blocks all EK csq

Anyway, most likely, i would need to get BP crystal link + C47 fitting to replace the gpu connector from PPC. U got anything wan share shipping? Though mine total around $35 usd nia..

 

[gaoxing84]

You getting from BP direct? Eh let me know if the BP valve is good. I can't move now cause I waiting for my gpu blocks to be released by EK

Get direct from BP quite ex... The mini valve around $37 sgd. If get from PCC, its around $25-27. Kaiqi07 at vrz selling his unused silver shiny mini valve at $20, can consider getting that.

If i cant find any o-ring in singapore, den i would be getting the crystal links liao.

Yeah.. Shall see what they say bah..

Go get mayhems coolant lor.. Got diff colours.

 

[gaoxing84]

Ok haha tomb to update your log! Can't wait to see your final build

 

[shadow84]

Just some updates to my rig...

Cant find any funnel in which the stem can fit into my tubing, so bo bian, i go get the bottle to slowly pour in..

Then, an idea hit me... I could just use the cap as a funnel and use the bottle to slowly pour the coolant in...

Overall look of my rig and tubing before i pour in the coolant.

Doesn't look that refined, but o well, price to pay for not planning properly...

Paper towels in position, I added in my old BMT PT brown singlet as well (not in the pic)... A bit useless since the coolant was gushing out at the gpu connector... It was soaked before i knew it.. lol.. Gonna try using SAF towel next time.. Do note that for my fill port, the tube is a little cramped under the rad. I may be getting a 90 degree rotary to put there and alternate between filling up and anti-pressure port.

I jus received a weird email frm PPC. I left some items in the cart and closed my browser. The next day, they send me a coupon of 5.5% with an expiry date and asked me to use it to checkout ... lol.
