Man, I personally would of sent that case back due to shipping damage.

But I love the white and black theme, really nice!

The one thing, and it is hard to tell from the pics, but it looks like you are running the CPU loop back to itself and the VRM section and the chipset section is looping on itself as well.

I drained the loop for the upcoming fittings and just did that to keep dust or anything from going into the blocks.

Edit: Yea I was disappointed about the case I'm gonna see if I can get a replacement panel because I don't want to send the whole thing back.

I thought my Feser X-changers were thick but they've got nothing on that. Looks good so far. Looking forward to the updates. And sorry about the dented case that sucks.
