I decided to use Mayhems fluid in this build. Pastel pink will look great, and the folks at Mayhems are always happy to send us fluid when we need it.

I swapped the fans out to the Corsair HD120 RGB models, as they have less of a black surround and suit the build far better.

The Alphacool parts look great in white, especially when there is such a vivid pink colour next to them.

I was worried that the smoked glass would ruin the look of the build, but when the fans are behind it and lit up, it looks great!

Bo mentioned she wanted a panda if she could get one. I snuck one on the PSU shroud to keep watch.

Here, have a load of pictures of the build!

We decided that since both BoMenzzz and I were at Insomnia 60, we would give her the PC and record her reaction! Check it out here!

This build has been a tough one. Although there are not too many crazy mods, there were some difficulties to overcome. I selected the liquid-cooling components to ensure the case was filled, but I didn't expect it to be quite so tight. I think the build looks fantastic, though, and I am glad that BoMenzzz likes it. A huge thanks must go out to Corsair and Alphacool for supplying the parts that have made her so happy!

Finally, here is a before and after comparison. It is only when you remember what BoMenzzz was using before that you realise how much of an improvement this is.
