Here it is folks, I condensed the whole build process into a 30 minute or so segment, so sit back, relax and enjoy the chips :)

Since everybody asked for it, I edited this one natively in 4K, even with youtube compression it should be extra crispy!

Thank you to everybody who followed the build! This one was probably my biggest challenge to date, there was so much involved in every single step and your support made it all the more worthwhile. Of course a huge thank you has to go out to Aorus and Intel for commissioning the rig and to Corsair for sponsoring the watercooling components.

Some fun stats for you:

- The build weighs 24.3kg (53.6lb)
- There are ~450 LEDs present in this rig.
- In total there's about 650GB of footage for this one project.
- Some parts needed to be remade up to 4 times before I was happy with the fit and finish.
- Glass blasting thin aluminium panels is a right pain.
- The motherboard tray uses 6 types of screws. I had to use 6/32 fillister screws in order to get the outer rim thin enough for the reservoir to function properly.
- The main Fusion 360 CAD model for Ensis is currently at version 187.
- I came down to my last 15cm of transparent sleeving. Cutting it close to the wire eh?..
