I figure I'll put the fill port in the top of the case & run it down to where ever I mount the Res as to not have to be in the case just to refill right. Seen a couple like that & liked the idea. Less chances of spill overs or what have you to right.

Yes you're right he is bad the frigger lol!

Yes you have a good plan.. I did that too, only difference my fillport is used for blocking the end of tube, which is just hanging outside the case lol..

If I didn't already have a sound card I woulda been interested in that to lol.

I actually wanted to go with a DD drive bay res but they have to be mounted in that certain spot so aren't very versatile right. Swiftech res can be mounted anywhere really.

Theres plenty other things you can add for a blue look(such as specific types of antifreeze that are known not to break/kill stuff in loops, primochill g35 or w/e, I forget the brand atm), but ensure your using a dye that doen't seperate from the water. What happens often is the dye will seperate for one reason or another and "flake" into the rad, or a block or etc. And all we will see is a thread 2 months from now "where did the color in my loop go?"
