Definitely a nice system, with good looks and smartly builted.

Just a few notes, for a future system:

You can have an eficient watercooling system even when silent.
The golden rule should above all be: eficiency vs silence vs size.

- the higher the water flow the better the C/W ratio. Replacing EHEIM 1250 with HALM resulted in 1-2*C less on CPU. The pump is very silent (better than EHEIM).
Avoid elbows, simple tubing is less restrictive.
And shrouds are always a necessity. --> sorry, saw its shrouded.

And i find it hard for you to have 2,5*C water temp above ambient. Maybe at full fan speeds and with shrouds you could get it.
And never 0.2*C

Still a cool system and much better than the majority that are seen.
