This is the first time I've built a PC since 2004, and my first stab at a custom water cooled loop. Let me know your all's thoughts. Going off the top of my head, the build includes:
Thermaltake Tower 900 case
EVGA Super Nova P2 1000 Watt power supply.
Asus Maximums X Formula Motherboard.
Delided Intel i7 8700K (6 cores, 12 threads) overclocked to a stable 5.3 Ghz.
XSPC Raystorm Neo CPU waterblock.
32GB (4x8GB sticks) G.SKILL Trident Z RGB RAM (DDR4 3000Mhz)
Asus Strix GTX1080Ti OC edition graphics card overclocked to 2076Mhz (don't remember the memory speed exactly, but its OC'd to over 11,000Mhz).
Phanteks Glacier GPU waterblock.
2 Alphacool NexXxos RX480 radiators. 4 120mm XSPC fans on each one (PWM fans).
5 BitFeix 140mm case fans (also PWM).
2 fan controllers
2 Thermaltake Pacific water pumps.
3 500GB Samsung 950 Evo SSDs in raid 0.
RGB LED light strips to brighten up the case (tinted glass).
Primochill Vue coolant for the 2 loops (purple and blue)
Alienware 34" IPS 100hz 3440x1440 monitor (overclocked to 120hz).
Razer Ornata Chroma keyboard.
Razer Lancehead Tournament Edition mouse.
Razer Kraken 7.1 Chroma headphones.

Thanks! It took me around 4-6 hours just to bend the 14mm PETG tubing right, with some goof ups along the way. It's been running strong now for about 4 months with very minimal fallout in the coolant.

Fixed the embedding of the images so that you don't have to click on the links to see them.
