Well, I'm right about to transfer my current parts into my Lian Li PC7077 that's been cut to fit my rad and reservoirs. My Airplex EVO 240 is going at the top over the PSU, while the Aquatube is over the top-most 5.25 bay. On the right panel I have my Innovatek Maxi passive rad and a full size Tank O matic next to it. I'll be using 5 blocks in here; CPU, GPU, C/S, HDD1 and HDD2. Lastly I'm going to use the Innovatek HPPS instead of the Aquastream.

The reasoning behind this is 1: I want to have a nice and cool system, with the ability to go passive for total silence, should I want it. There'll be 2 silent 80's for exhausting and 3 36db 120's on a controller as intakes (2 are on the rad). 2: I want to combine a lot of parts into 1 system and I want it to look neato.

Does part order really matter? I'm thinking of going: pump > passive rad > GPU > CPU > CS > HDD1 > HDD2 > active rad > aquatube > tank-o-matic > pump or pump > passive rad > GPU > CPU > CS > active rad > aquatube > HDD1 > HDD2 > tank-o-matic > pump. Any thoughts of suggestions?

Lastly, I still need to cut my Lian Li Aquarium Panel into my bigger panel :)

Yeah, it was on sale at a place near here for $43, so I figured it'd be cool to have on my panel. Of course I need to remove it from the little panel and cut the big one to fit, then either fasten it with rivets or soem kind of screws/bolts. I take it LL didn't have a hit with it?

I'm assuming the aquatube is going to be used purely as an airtrap? Go with the neatest :)

Very interested in how this one works out - my AC stuff should be arriving this week (it's with UPS at the moment!) so I can finally get on with the 6277 I've got. The xx77 range are definitely my favourite cases - debating building a BIG storage server into one of them sometime ;)

:) Neatest it is, else I'll have tubes all over and in every direction. The way it will all flow is from the bottom up in a clockwise pattern. I've got a PC71b too, and that's getting the other left overs ^_^
