    Many thanks gentlemen. Completion will be soon upon us. =)

    This is far from the prettiest thing I ever put together - but it gets the point across and I did it very quickly.
    I crudely added in some of the parts. Including a very rough idea of the final reservoir locations:


    Here are the latest iteration of the reservoir mounts - it took about 5hours of measuring and remeasuring to be certain that they are level with one another. I don't want 2kilos of copper throwing off the visual balance.


    The "right" res will hang from the PSU area in the front and the back will mount to the fan - it's mounted so that it flows straight into the mosfet block. I'll need 4 spacers at the back to keep the reservoir fronts flush with one another.

    The "left res fits into the slots on the hdd bay cover plate.

    More soon.

    I have only been off the forums for about a week now but I can't believe your progress. Everything is looking simply amazing. Those reservoirs are nice, have they been pre coated with a copper finish? You wouldn't want them to tarnish.

    The Boy 4rm Oz - Thanks a lot man, as always. The reservoirs are solid copper - and they weigh 1.9kilos each. I'm going to polish them then coat them in Varathane.

    Thank your both very much. As always - much appreciated.

    So; I made a 'little' spreadsheet this evening.
    It's a complete itemized list of every part and component in Prometheus - it's price, retailer, SKU, etc.

    It turns out that Prometheus consists of 227 different parts (meaning duplicate parts are not counted).

    This composes a total of *1413 individual pieces (not including the molex pins 1642 pieces if you count the pins.)

    The total MSRP value of this project is a fair bit higher than I had expected actually... My heart jumped a couple beats when I totaled the bottom line.

    Turns out I'm bat sh*t crazy afterall.

    *edit 1413 individual pieces not including pins. I miscalculated.
