Theres the window AC unit I'll be using as a temporary chiller till I get my real one planed and setup (by december) Propane powa
http://mywebpage.netscape.com/afIr3wIthIn/PA160120.JPG
Theres the whole thing but I still need a clamp for the video card to NB and I need a metal fitting for the top of the pump. Also, the stupid video card bends and would crack if the insulation didn't get stuck on a cap and bend it when I put the tube from the card to the NB on so I have a major issue there :mad: Help appreciated there :p:

I'm itchin to see if it all still works :p:

If it all does tommorow should be fun. I can use a jigsaw with metal cutting blades to chop up my TT sinks to put on my mosfets right?

Also, nanotherm or AS5? I just used the last of my AS3.

Whered you get the VIA aqua pump? I want one 327 GPH isint enough for me :D Jason said with a powerful enough pump and -40C water you can get prommie temps :eek:
Tommorow is gona own. And HOPEFULLY my board wont be the issue and I have just had 4 suckey CPUs/I needed better NB and mosfet cooling.

EDIT:Guys, I still need help keepin the video card straight up. I wish I had a removable mobo tray or something now.

only 12 hours left @ 33 bux and 10 bux shipping fedex ground.

As for the vid card; can't you make some sort of bracket?

zip tie from motherboard mounting hole to a hole in the vidcard somewehre if there are any free ones... or around the top of the PCI bracket if there are none.

Those mosfets look awefully bare..

Speaking of mosfets, i gotta hack up some sinks for mine since my board's already vmodded :D I wanna have all the bases covered before I bring the main back to life ;)

Hey AFI, better hook up that SB too.

Tanx :) Actually this is #5 for me but it's a non-s. I swapped it for an 8RDA+ 1.0 I had in my back up rig. I actually got it like that as you see it ;) A friend of mine SIN from another forum bought it and wasn't having fun with it and decided to let it go. Knowing how he is about Epox I pmed him and offered to swap. He agreed and here it sits ready for action :D

I'm sure we both are gonna have lots-o-fun, hee hee! :banana:

And what kind of idiot trades a rev 2 board for a rev 1 board?

And this sin woulden't happen to run Sin Systems would he?

EDIT:I found out the mounting hardware on the GPU doesen't hold it on all the way under pressure so I have to get a C clamp to hold it today :stick:
I hope the cap its laying on hasent bent TO far if at all yet....
