DANG xii, you sure know how to throw a rig together.    Love the rigid tubing.

Aren't you afraid Black Sheep 1 just might get jealous?

I wish I could -- needless to say all things have a cost.

Thanks but the credit is actually to Alex, he suggested the red. The nickel/copper piping is part of the aventum ii design as I understand.

In relation to the BS1 getting jealous - you didn't know? Aventum's fall in love and make baby Bolt systems. I'm just the matchmaker.

Perhaps they will take HDR pictures for this system as well.

Slick looking beast! The candy red finish is really nice in person (better than photos!).

It's easy to drain/top up any liquid cooled system, fill drain ports are not really necessary. On this system, one of the lower fittings can be disconnected which would release fluid.

Anything can be added to your order under the special notes.

When I build machines here I call / email the team almost daily with ideas and "what if I added this" questions.

I ordered it a month or so ago. I keep asking questions, delaying my build. ;-)

xii I have a suggestion for you for your build. The front cover of your aventum11 showing the DS logo cutout, have DS install red led light there. Have them put an off/on switch on back of case. They installed a led light on my corsair 800d but the light stays on all the time, wish I had an off/on switch.
