Another forum member had asked about this build, so I thought I'd post it up. I would have to say this was one my favorite builds that I have ever done. I look forward to going back to water-cooling when I received my Ghost.

System Specs
Asrock x99e-itx/ac
Intel 5820K
Evga GTX970 Mini
Corsair Dominator 16GB 2166
Samsung 950 Pro 256gb
HDPlex 250 + Voodoo 350W Power Adapter

Watercooling Specs
Aquacomputer Cuplex Kryos - Delrin Version
Aquacomputer aquagraFX GTX 970 + Heatkiller backplate
Aquacomputer Aqualis Micro Reservoir w/Pressure Membrane
Aquacomputer D5 Pump Adapter
Aquacomputer D5 Pump w/USB and Aquabus
Aquacomputer Airplex Radical 120mm
Aquacomputer Airplex Radical 240mm
Aquacomputer MPS Flow 400
Aquacomputer Aquaero 6 + Waterblock and Passive heatsink
Noctua NF-F12 industrialPPC-2000 IP67 PWM (240mm Radiator)
Prolimatech Ultra Sleek Vortex 12
Tygon R-3400
Koolance fitting 3/8" ID x 1/2" OD


Stripped case with internal reservoir and D5 pump


I originally had the HDPlex 250 installed right below the motherboard, but it got in the way of the 120MM Airplex Rad.


Relocated the HDplex and installed the Aquaero 6


EVGA GTX970 and Heatkiller backplate installed along with test fitting the plumbing.


Both Rads installed - Leakdown test




Airplex Radical 240mm Rad installed with Noctua fans


All done - Wired up and switched out all fittings to chrome Barrow fittings.

Wow nicely done. I have been waiting to see someone pull out the SFX PSU and use a HDPlex with the Ncase. Frees up so much space for a pump/reservoir.

It's too bad no one makes GPU blocks for the 10 series itx size GPUs, another thing that frees up a lot of space. Seems like the short PCB reference cards are also a thing of the past.

Curious how your thermals are with this setup, thinking pretty good.

Bitspower makes an msi aero itx 1070 block.
