View Full Version : Random idea here....warning okay!
Am i right in thinking that a Swiftech MCW6000/MCW6002 CPU water-block is the block to have when using a chiller but are hard to get hold of?
http://www.overclockers.com/articles1026/sw61.jpg
I had the crazy idea of mixing phase style with a chiiler and this block.
Make a head kit and hold down to hold the block so it will be all insulated and the covered, all nice and neat.
Then you could coil the hose's togther and wrap all up in insulation and brade it much like a suction line.
It'll look neat and cool as hell, get a really good seal around the socket hopefully and will confuse everyone whats really there...
Or am i being silly.
Edit: Last question - don't answer it

Haha all you propose to do is what, use smaller hoses, bring them together when they leave the block, and insulate it as if it was the evaporator head and flexible line?
Sounds just like a new way to insulate to me...

and the temps may a small bit lower, because you have the two hoses together

and then you have the pump heat load to contend with. Might as well get a real chiller.
It is a unique way to get a quasy chiller but I fail to see the logic at that point as you loose a crap load of efficiency at that point.

I think what he is talking about is a real chiller, but just with the supply and return lines appearing to look like the suction line. It is in fact an actual chiller, right?

No he isn't. he wants to couple the block to the cooling heat then use it as a heat exchanger.
No i don't! Right that WC block is ment to be best thing from when you mum heaved you out right for using on a water chiller?
Answers are yes or no only!
Stick on some tubing, then ether run the tube side by side and tape them up or wrap round each other so it's close, bit of stiffness.
As a water chiller get chilly, the block needs to be insualted right. So why not have an encloser for it like phase evap do. It'll be all sealed up and conesation free but bloody neat looking.
This with a chiller, f.... knows what you all were thinking of!! Proper chiller, compresser etc etc
Hose well the two blocks on the ebay currently are 3/8'' sadly

so basically you want a plastic shell with insulation and mounting holes instead of insulating the block with sheets of insulation, mmmmmk, sounds good, go for it, maybe you can mass produce and sell here the Pete1 chiller mcw6002 Mounting Kit lol

Ahy kinda like a Vapo cma shell style, small, seak, simple etc etc.

The way you communicate makes it very easy for one to end up siting there going "WTF is he trying to say??????????"
You need to give a clearer picture with more detail of what you are thinking!
Imagen you brain thinks English, you nervous sytem Japanes and you hand/wrist/fingers Arabic.
Thats dislexia for me.
Really hard to get things out and down.
Just exactly like what you have for an EVAP on phase, remove the evap and fit this block..thats the idea!

I have a degree dyslexia my self, it comes down to stoping, planning on what to type, then type it, look at it for a while, then hiting submit!
Take your time to lay out your thought, no need to rush to post.
Easyer said than done! I beat every known spell checker thats out there going. Heck people can't even read my hand writing it's that bad. Grammer..whats that as i really don't know my self

lol every one tells me I should be a doctor with mine. It's hard at first, but every thing is at first, I started practising by going to chat rooms in yahoo, you get instant feed back when ya mess up by the people, and over time that instant feed back trains you. Though when I am writing in a hurry I still can get every thing scrambled and back wards.
But in the end it is worth it, just for the sake of not having to repeat your self a few thousand times.
Dyslexia is a problem, yes; but not an excuse, just takes some practice, hard perhaps but doable.

Hey Pete,
I used to do all my testing with one of these blocks its an old maze 4-1 they are great for water chillers as for hold downs etc I used neoprene and screws semi like a chilly hold down

I think this is a good idea but making it fit will be tricky.
Especially getting the cover to fit snugly around the barbs and hozes.
I think that wrapping the tubes together will make insulation harder, but I suppose you could run them next to each other and then put brading over them.
I can gererally understand the jist of your posts, even if I have to read twice sometimes.
