8 Packs MATX LAN gaming system (Overclocked for 24/7 stability)

8_Pack
Level 12
I am attending Iseries Multiplay event with OCUK this year and thought with the arrival of the excellent looking Parvum Water cooling MATX case I would build myself a small rig to take with me. This build is not one of my super exclusive high end builds just a 24/7 rig for me to use whilst away from home.

Here are the specs:
3770K
Maximus v gene
Corsair Dominators 8gb 2133mhz Hynix
Corsair 860 AXI PSU
7990

Watercooling
DDC Plus Pump.
Bitspower Res Top.
2 x XSPC 240 Rads
1 X XSPC 360 Rad
6 x Sythe GT 1850 fans @ 7v (for silence)
Bitspower and EK fittings.
EK Supremecy
EK MB Block
EK Dominator RAM block
EK 7970 Block and Backplate.
Mayhems Pastel Red Coolant
Bitfenix Braided Cables.

Craming all this hardware into a MATX was not gonna be easy!!! Here are the pics of the build.

The Case:



Most of the Bits!!!





Big Traps!!!!



Board blocked up and some pipe work in place.



Board mounted in the case with tge front Rad and Fans!!



Top Rad in place and some tubing!!!





I/O Shield.



Bottom rad in but the graphics is gonna be tight!!!! Look at the Bi's on that system builder!!





Too Tight!!! bottom rad out graphics in!!! Bottom Rad back in with fans now mounted on top pushing out.



Tubing Complete and filling the loop. With full cable management in place.



Bleeding the loop.



Completed system with side off. Decided to put a white light strip behind the 8 logo so it shows up nicely with the sides in place.



More....... with sides on!!!





I really enjoyed building this system. Looks really great given the size constraints!!! This case is excellent for the MATX watercooling build but it was still a challenge cramming all the hardware in. And finally the Overclock. Nothing too extravagent just 24/7 stability (5ghz ;))

Yeah I know!!! Overclocking 24/7 Stable 5ghz, RAM 2133mhz Tuned very tight subs, Graphics stock volts for cool operation with the sliders on AB maxed out at 1100, 1575. Done!!!

Stability



2D Benches at 24/7 clocks

Is that an 'extended' Parvum?
