As this was my first ever watercooling build and I had chosen to go with flex tube, I just couldn't work out a way to get the loop onto the CPU and motherboard.
Plus, I actually like that TT gets a bit of a showing with the AIO cooler branding.

When I try my hand are PETG I might look to do a bridge from the top for the mobo to a CPU block.

You would probably need a couple 90 degree fittings to incorporate the VRM block in a loop, I have never used the VRM block in a loop on these boards as they just don't typically reach temperatures that need water cooling but I understand why people do
Still you have a very nice system, these Coffee Lake builds really fly, 50% more cores 100% more fun

That is one awesome build! Nice man.

Nice build overall but ewww razer...yuck... 😛

Yes this will be insane build Maximus X Formula is so cool with silver parts and backplate.
And special because it's Maximus 10th.



i7-8700K is like i7-5960X and even better for surfing and every day usage.
Maximus X Formula with i7-8700K OC to 5.0GHz... EKWB watercooling stuff and GTX1080 FE with waterblock.
PSU..... Hmmmmm what would be nice PSU.... right Seasonic 600 Titanium Fanless.

Now when my watercooling parts arrive I will make one nice build and parts will stay and for next builds in future.

This is my list on EKWB Shop... Tomorrow I go to send money to guy who will bring parts to avoid custom tax.
I have Monoblock for this platform, later if I change something I will bought Supremacy EVO and GPU block will depend of 2080Ti.
Or if they surprise me with price I will buy Poseidon 1080Ti probably, he fit best with my Monoblock.
