Here's the first PC I've built. Watercooling to come...just waiting on Cathar's new block.

well done, looks good, particularly like the stealthed look. Nice and clean looking.

Here's the external box, slightly outdated picture because it now has a plexi-glass top and a fan over the pump.

No offense, but you might want to take a look at these boxes. A radbox has to be as air tight as possible, but in addition, the fans need not be mounted against the radiator.

Have as many exhaust air out the box as you can fit, so that the radiator has air being sucked through it. If the pump is in the box, all that airflow will be more than enough to cool it, so an additional fan will be unecessary.

dogbait, the pictures are working for me.

Nice looking case. The external box looks interestingly insulated. Does that insulation help the sound levels? How quiet is it?
