Well, talk about the right place at the right time. Bought a BIP, 6' of 1/2" ID Green Tubing and a Resivoir from Pied for $20 shipped..rad and res being used.

I just couldn't pass up the deal. I was saving for a C2D setup but, meh, an X2 wld suite me fine.

Moving on, I proceeded to order an AquaXtreme MP-05 Pro w/Optional Nozzles, a Danger Den Mag II LE Pump, and some Swiftech HydrX Additive. Added in 10x black tubing clamps, and I'm all ready to go! I should have all my hardware here by the 4th.

So what about my hardware? Well, I'll be using my MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum naturally, along with a 3000+ Venice that currently does 2.7GHz around 1.48v, so I hope to get 2.8+ on water.

Stay tuned for pix, results, etc. :D

well, the pump's a bit weak, but for a single block it'll do fine.

oh and dont use the hydryx at the rated concentration or youll be pulling that MP-05 apart come a month's time to wash the clogged green crap out of it.

5-10% at the most, if youre after colour. Couple of caps if youre only after peace of mind.

It's already green tubing so 2-3 caps shld be fine. I just dont want algae in there :p:

That should do the trick :)

Oh and remember to put the fan pulling air through the rad for that extra little bit of performance...
