"The Hoff" - My first custom watercooled PC.

This is the first of (hopefully) many custom loop PCs to come. A project that was a very spur of the moment thing, as an experiment to see if fitting everything in such a compact case as the NZXT S340 Elite was even possible, or if I would have to give up on my favourite case as a compromise - If it turned out well is something for you to judge. I personally love the aesthetic of having the resevoir in the bottom like this, although I'll be the first to admit that even with softtubing, this is an absolute nightmare to drain and fill.

The rig itself is used for a mixture of gaming and light video editing for hardware reviews. AAA gaming, Adobe Photoshop and Premiere are just a few of its many tasks.

The rig consists of the following:
Case: NZXT S340 Elite (White)
Motherboard: Gigabyte Aorus X370 Gaming 5
CPU: Ryzen 1700 @4.0GHZ
GPU: MSI 1080 Armor OC 8GB
RAM: G.Skill TridentZ RGB 4x8GB 3200Mhz (@2933Mhz)
Power Supply: Be Quiet Dark Power 11 650W w/Custom Cablemod Sleeving
Storage: 1 NVME (Samsung 951 256GB), 1 SSD (Samsung EVO 850 500GB), 1 HDD (6TB WD RED)
