After waiting all day for the final parts of my build I was finally able to assemble everything yesterday!
-- The sad news --
The wrong fittings were sent, so I got new ones from Micro Center the same day. With some help from my roommate to run the wires through the case we were ready to boot in just a few hours. With the PSU on and everything plugged in... the computer had a short in the system. My roommate went to bed, and I stayed up and by a stroke of luck, around 5 am I moved the Graphics cards down to PCI-E slot 3 and 5... and IT WORKED! then the Network card showed up to be faulty... so now I have to take it apart and remove the Motherboard from behind everything, and send it back for an exchange. At the very least my first liquid cooling loop looks pretty decent, and has no leaks!
