That's awesome man and they are giving you custom cut cables, that's great. Something you had trouble with in your first mod.

My troubles in the previous mod was that Thermaltake refused to send me more modular cables but hopefully this will be good.
Anyone know someone that do custom S-ATA cables? 0.o

Waterblocks decided upon aswell now, gonna go for OCZ HydroFlow HF-MK1 on all 3 mobo's ^^
*gottalovecopypaste*
HydroFlow HF-MK1 CPU Waterblock / For AMD, AM2, 775, 1366 / Core i7 Compatible
Designed with the highest possible exchange rate between the block and coolant, the HydroFlow can be easily integrated into any enthusiast water cooled system and help efficiently lower the processor temperature. The HydroFlow is compatible with AMD and Intel processors, including the latest generation Core i7 CPUs.
The triangular fins in the HF-MK1 provide the highest volume to surface ratio of any geometric shape for best dissipation possible, and this special design also creates sufficient turbulence to eliminate the “skin” effect caused by laminar flow. The base block of the HydroFlow increases center contact with the processor core for the greatest possible cooling potential, ensuring maximum exchange and functionality between the waterblock and CPU.
Whether you’re a first-time builder or a seasoned case-modder, OCZ makes the HydroFlow easy to integrate into your rig by supplying both high-flow 3/8” and 1/2” barbs in the packaging without the hassle of searching for compatible hardware.

On the custom SATA cables, sorry, I can't help you. I presume it would be the same process as a telephone cable or a LAN cable, you put the cable into the connector and use a special tool to crimp it together, I have never seen bare SATA heads though.
On the water block, that's great news. The OCZ water block really performs quite well, congratz on the sponsor.

you mean the sata power cables? i can do some for you, but thats such an easy task, it would be a waste of money
I think he actually means the SATA data cables. He is getting custom made PSU cables.

I saw a guide somewhere on the net where they made custom length sata data cables. Just took a long one and shortened it and re-did the connector. I'll see if I can find it.
Here's a link with a 'How-To' for customizing the length of your SATA data cable.

This may be the same that NightrainSrt4 was referring to.

BTW... I love this concept! I look forward to seeing it come alive.
Would be awesome to get ahold of some s-ata heads and 10 meters of cable
FrooP, make me around 40 of em... and ill send you 2 cookies and a bottle of beer ^^
