First Custom Loop
by asimcoe Posted on: 1/4/2021Build Description
This is my latest gaming PC. I am strictly an Enthusiast/Hobbyist and self taught mostly. Lots of Google, FB Groups and Forums and YouTube videos of course. This is my first custom loop and it was hard tubing. My Thermaltake Pacific C360 kit was a great starting point but even the kits lack some important features, such as drainage options and additional fittings to make a solid attempt at a well thought out loop. I was lucky enough come by some parts GPU/CPU during a difficult time right here at MC. It was a beast and took me several weeks to assemble. The problem with not doing this all the time is you do one every few years and then technology goes nuts and you have to re-learn 18 things. LOL. Anyway hope you enjoy and it provides you some inspiration to do your own. I find when I get the opportunity to build it's very therapeutic for me. Sometimes I wonder if I enjoy the building more than the gaming. Well, maybe sometimes. Good Luck to everyone.
Favorite Feature
Full custom loop/Hard Tubing. Well and the GeForce 3060ti, that's pretty cool also.
