r00t-

Nice setup there, very clean (wiring needs a little work; but no dust, haha j/k).... Still don't get why GER wasserkuhler are small dia tubing and US watercooling is big bore tubing.

ps... are those pics really two years old?

no my ******* cam resets the Date when i start the cam , ******in crap :D

yes wiring needs a little work , when i have free time i put my hands on ;)

i think its all the same , which tubing u use^^ the flow is ok , too

the temperatures are also very good..so why do all american watercooling users , take this **** big tubings ?

i think it looks not very good with big tubings :(

are there in US no shops , where u can buy this "normal" tubings?

Hey Atomicpineapple: That rad looks similar to an XSPC R120-T... how's it treating you? :)

Its actually an Alphacool NexXxos tripple 120mm but it does look very similar to the XSPC 120-T and has the same size 1/4" fittings, difference is in price, I paid a bit over £30 for that rad from www.candccentral.co.uk whereas the XSPC is about £45. While I cant compare its performance to the likes of a PA120.3 or any of the other top performing radiators I can say its well built (and I do like the chromed shroud for fan attachments!) and came with all screws necessary for attachment of both fans and the radiator to the case, also included were rubber grommets to reduce fan vibration noise. Obviously its much better than my old setup of a dual 80mm and single 80mm Asetek Waterchill radiators.

Well, I guess its just preference... I'm from Europe, and personally, I'd be very happy if I could purchase blocks with 1/2" ID... i like big tubes...

[FragTek]

Larger diam. tubing = less flow restriction = better cooling power.

[r00t]

which temperature do u have with ur opteron ?

[Zeus]

Yeah big bore tubing is cool. :cool:

Thanks, M8. The tubing is 1/2" ID tygon and I bought the clamps at a True Value Hardware store. I took a piece of tubing with me to find the shortest ones that would fit and the narrowest ones.

What kind of clamps are those?

[damstr]

What slinky thingis that and what does it do?
its so the tubes don't kink, i got more but haven't put it on yet, should have every tube with that anti-kink stuff on in a couple of weeks.

[rotNdude]

Metal worm clamps.

This stuff comes next week;

- A case called aerocool Masstige to replace my Aopen H600B(got that already)
- A PSU from Seasonic 600W to replace my LC-Power 550W
- A MCP 655 swiftech pump to replace my eheim 1048
- Nexxxus dual extreme rad + grill instead of my heavy tractor rad.(got that already)
- A swiftech storm block instead of my zern pq +, a copple of sharp razor blades for popping of the ihs.
- Maze 4 for my x800gto² thats heating up my chipset fan so everything in my comp will be quiet again.
- A plexi res for in my drive bay.

I have 2 choices of tubing.

- Dangerden tubing uv (13mm) for 1/2"
- Silicone tubing (11mm) for 3/8" and 1/2".

I only worked with silicone tubing and its great because it works so easy. Dangerden I have to try out.
Pics will be coming next week if its finished.

I new to this water cooling and i am looking @ going with water. One Question for anybody here, have any of you seen or have the Thermaltake Armor case setup with internal rads in stead of external rads on the back ? this is the case i have and i was just wondering how hard it would be to make a good internal rad seup. I was looking at the Switftech Apex system or should i build a custom setup, I know the Appex has dual external rad and can i save any money by putting 1 together my self. Thanks..............:D

:D Do my house couldn't be a huge case?

[187(V)URD@]

My case http://www.legitreviews.com/article/241/4/ is reviewed here but I still thinking what would be the best spot too set up my rad.

In front of the removable 5.25 bays where i easily can place my rad. It can suck in the cold air outside the case and let the warmer air out of the case at the backside of the case (120mm fan).
Small problem, I have a dvdrw + floppy + fancontroller + reservoir that needs to fit in the remaining bays. Hope this works or i have to choose the following setup.

Drill out the top of the case to fit my rad. Bit more work but saves some space.
But radiator is cooled with hotter air from the case too the outside.


But the same setups will perform about the same, nothing to make me worry about. I already have a good caseflow (2*120mm + 4*80mm and 2*120mm at rads)

I think i'll go with the rad at top. :)

[MaxxxRacer]

Delerious did you do that custom work at the top with the drive bays and such? If so, it looks completely professional.. amazing work.

Yah i cut the drive bays down as it extended from the bottom to the top. Then built that shelf and flush riveted it in. Pretty simple, and i did it all by myself :D

I was quite proud of myself when i finished it.

Drives will sit on left, taking floppy bay and using it for now, then some dremel work and riveting to take one of the HD mounts I removed and put it up there. Think there will be enough airflow for the drives. No window since this is for HTPC and no one will see it after I'm done :shrug: And I am making this another cooling system that can be removed w/o disassembly, just unplug and detach Res and Block, then pull the whole thing out :D

To protect the little capacitors from his waterblock.

[MaxxxRacer]

the capacitors on the face of the cpu can be dammaged if the waterblock tips over. I have experienced this, where my TDX tiped over a little and shorted out on one of the caps, which restarted my machine. The CPU died quickly thereafter.

According to Everest my load temp on my cpu is about 50C and my vid card 60C. Idle is cpu: 32C and vid card 40C.

I'm using a coolermaster fan. It was something like 22dba with 46cfm

Edit: Everest was mixing my temp up between cpu and mobo. My cpu idles 35C and Loads to 44C.

geep, seing as how you have a sound card you SHOULD remove your karajan audio unit. I have heard of quite a few reports of the karajan causing issues when it is installed with a sound card. If you havnt you should also disable it in the bios.

The fluid is a Coolermaster, same that used WC kits like aquagate and miniaquagate, for now i have good temps. is translucid, anticorrosive, antibacteria, heat transfer, etc.

Thats an interesting loop you have there. 2 pumps?

[MaxxxRacer]

sephiroth8748, you should deffinetly change your loop order.. res goes right before the pump, not in the middle of the loop

[sephiroth8748]

sephiroth8748, you should deffinetly change your loop order.. res goes right before the pump, not in the middle of the loop

I was going to do that at first but it would require about a foot more of tubing. What I'll probably do is wait till I change my water and clean my blocks and replace my res with a t-line to make it easier. btw, there's only one pump ;)

[thunderstruck!]

Also that is a really really sharp bend you got there near the rad and pump. You might wanna fix that because your pump could be sucking in air. You'd probably hear a whining noise. It's in pain, man:slap: !

I've been trying to figure out how to fit a proper water cooling setup inside my Coolermaster ATC-200. Its a tiny bit shorter than the ATC-210 and there isn't much room for pumps and radiators. I considered mounting such gear outside the case but i'm still uncertain.

This case of mine right now is too loud..... need to enjoy the silence.

Wait till you see what's gonna happen in the near future. It took me forever to find another ATCS210 (I've owned my orignal one for a few years already), but I recently got another and am gonna chop it in half and stick a phase unit inside ;) The mod's been done before, but I loved it when I saw it and now am capable of the same....:woot:

[s7e9h3n]

WOW. Looks awsome.

Thanks :toast: The W/C loop is Res -> D5 -> DtekCustoms Heatercore -> Swiftech Storm -> Swiftech MCW-50 -> T-line -> Res.......All tubing is Tygon-3603 1/2ID, 3/4OD, oh...and a DD fill port...

I've grown tired of running my daily user outside of my case and on the table so I decided to build this. I've still got a few more plans for this unit and when I'm done, it'll be cooled by a custom single stage phase -> that's still a little more manageable than my -87C autocascade :p: It's been a couple of years since I've been away from water, but I must say that I'm extremely impressed with this Swiftech Storm cpu block. It sure blows the block I last had (whitewater) out of the water (hehehe). This block allows me to idle a good 6-8C lower than the best aircooling I've had on my FX55/56 (the one in sig). Here's a shot of my temps in bios @ 1.58Vcore. This room is definately not cold, no windows are open, and it's in fact a quite comfortable ambient temp....

@ Trance - Of course it's in the loop, why wouldn't it be? lol It's mounted where the hard drives usually would go, so of course I had to figure out where to put them inside my case ;) :

lets hope i can get some money together so finish the monster off, anywho, heres the pics :) enjoy:

Hey max, we want to see some pics of your computer ! :)

[Mr.Bones]

Nice...........!!!:cool:

[trance565]

:yepp:

its a Laing DCC PRO


any american places that sell it?

[MaxxxRacer]

Nearly Every watercooling shop in the USA sells the Laing DDC. The version that Staucher has is not reccomended due to the arcylic and that it uses smaller ID compression fittings which restrict flow.

In australia there are a few tops that are good. They use 1/2" fittings and have the inlet on the top, reducing flow restriction. The DDC "Pro" also has the top mounting, but uses the micro fittings like the other 2 compression fittings shown in his pictures.

[MaxxxRacer]

Vik, i will post some pics, but I warn you its not pretty at all. Just some parts strewn about my floor. It will be going into a case soon enough though.

carbon fibre also trasmits heat very well IIRC.

Graphite, such as the stuff uses in R/C cars, is one of the best conductors of heat.

Sc4mpi Where's your X-Fi?

under the second gtx.

i would say ddc's for the pump's as you would need a huge head to go through all those blocks, even with 2 loops.

Pumps are 1046's. even though theres a lot of blocks the pumps cope quite well, flow is good to still enough to shoot out the res when filling.

and yer the x-fi is under the bottem gtx :)

what blocks are you using for, everything. lol

:D i want to take it apart and see what everything is, cause thats like the most insane thing ive ever seen fit in such a small case 0.0

kudos.

[MadMikeSS]

Well, it looks like the cpu and GPU blocks are innovatek. The chipset block looks like it might be Alphacool Nexxxus NBX, but I could be wrong because it's hard to see. But since it looks like the alphacool MB Heattrap RegCooler on the voltage regulators... I have to say the chipset block has to be alphacool also. I've seen the ram waterblocks before, but I don't know who makes them.

CF probably would, except for the fact that it's usually encased in fiberglass and/or resin.

On the other hand, it looks kickass. :D

Yup, but I'd rather not at an antifreeze to my loop when I'm not going below freezing. No point in it otherwise, it will only increase corosion occurance (not that I have unlike metals in my loops) and lower thermal efficiency.

[SNIPoR]

No, It's an ordinary Molex connector. Just a special version of it, witch he propably made him self.

[SNIPoR]

i dont know but... what like mixing Zerex with Blue Dye-Lite ?? any performance dropping?? bad side, good side of it?

[EnJoY]

Dye's are a bad choice because they begin as a solid white powder, and over time, they will inevitably return to their solid state inside of your loop.

[SNIPoR]

so any idea how to make my coolant glows in blue without damaging the loop?

[EnJoY]

Buy UV reactive tubing of your color choice. Primochill makes some nice uv tubing. Or, use a blue antifreeze like pentosin and illuminate it with cathodes.

[prosbloom225]

Awesome setup man. Love the colors, and its clean as hell. Nice job.

[isp]

too bad he sold it, looked so damn nice.

[Gimmpy224]

yea but, is that a single 1.120 rad....... is that the only thing keepin it cool? cause if so it must of been hot as hell.

[EnJoY]

yea but, is that a single 1.120 rad....... is that the only thing keepin it cool? cause if so it must of been hot as hell.

Na, it's a heatercore. A single 120mm heatercore is about equal in performance to a Black Ice Pro 2.

[Sc4mpi]

@sc4mpie

No dye. just uv tube. its just distilled water with zerex coolant added. to protect against corrosion.

I use the same setup w/ a x800xl in a PCV2000 (Though the fan is a bit bigger (150mm :eek: (only @ 5volts :hrhr: )

You have to give a slow shutter speed at least 1 second so you have to use a tripod.

[teko]

Most european produced WC is made for 8/6mm and 10/8mm, but alot of people (including me) is using 12mm or ½"..

[Jupiler]

10/8mm is also used, more common in Germany.

Here's an update on mine.
I wasn't that pleased with the UV Dye Lite Clear Blue performance under UV lights. So I changed it to D-Tek's Visible Blue and I like it much better.
Had to change the tubing too, as my Masterkleer tubing was pretty dirty after only a couple of months of use.

The cathodes were placed like this, just to give an idea. 1 goes to the top, the other to the bottom of the case and 1 x10cm will come unter the 120mm fan at the back.

[EnJoY]

I'm personally gonna go with 1/2" ID UV reactive tubing for my next loop. I'd rather not put dyes in the loop as they'll just clog my Storm.

[MaxxxRacer]

Enjoy, I havnt tried any of the UV tubing yet. Do you know they compare to Masterkleer, Tygon and Clearflex with regards to elasticity and bendability?

[EnJoY]

I've owned the Primoflex UV tubing (the same stuff I plan on getting next time), and I didn't notice any difference in elasticity between that and the Clearflex 1/2" ID I had had right before that. However, in terms of flexibility, my Tygon 7/16" ID has been the best...but I have a feeling that has more to do with it being 7/16" ID 5/8" OD rather than it being Tygon.

The ATCS series of cases IMO were some of the best cases ever made. Their aluminum is NOTHING like the cheap stuff they use on Lian-Li's and they're built absolutely rock solid. I originally paid $250+ for my ATCS (http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showpost.php?p=1239164&postcount=936) and it was worth every penny. I just recently got ahold of another one - which I'm gonna chop in half to house a phase change unit for my rig. @ the $119 price for the case shown above, it's well worth it......

[Liquid_Cooled]

yea, the ATC-210 is gorgeous, but the only thing i hate about it is the airflow. you have a single 80mm in the back as an exhaust, and a single 80mm uptop as an intake, i kid you not. since the ATC-210 has a clean faceplate and uses the chassis of the ATC-110, it was the only solution they had.

to get better cooling, i drilled x2 80mm intakes in the back, and a 120mm exhaust ontop (for the rad).

haha, i dont like Lian Li much either. the new top dog is Silverstone, no doubt about it. mostly the TJ-03 (which i just got!) and the TJ-07.

The stuff DD sells? It's a bit less flexible than tygon. Still works great though. Although I'd rather have tygon since it grips barbs better. I used UV and tygon without clamps on my MCW6002... tygon was water tight all the time and UV leaked right away.

Looks a bit dangerous having the reservoir up there... *bump* *crash* *spill* :eek: :shock2: :( http://3dgameman.com/forums/images/smilies/tantrum.gif *mop -> floor*...

I suggest you screw it in or something (unless it already is and I can't see it). :)

Malk4vi4n, that radiator kills flow like no other.. there are many much better solutions that are smaller and more effecient... cheaper too

Yep, you guessed it. Well a MCP655 to be more exact, but the same thing really. It's on the bottom of the case in front (In drive by area)

[maratus]

Nicksterr
Nice, but those hose clamps... I think worm is much more secure, right?

maratus, lol.. I see your russian as well.

[Nicksterr]

I have metal worm clamps on the inlet and outlet of the pump.

This is my water cooled computer, I redid my original kit - a Kingwin Arctic Liquid Cooler with a car heatercore and longer tubing so I can put the radiator out my window in winter, sort of a winter water chilling. I can lower my cpu temperatures 21'F (12'C) before condensation starts forming on my water blocks. The specs for my system are listed in my signature. I can run my Athlon XP 2500+ to the speed of a 2800+ on the stock vcore but never really tried serious overclocking. My 6600 GT can overclock from stock 500/900 to 590/1093 almost 100mhz core and 300mhz on memory :banana: And excuse the crappy pictures, my digital camera sucks and doesn't have a focus.

@ Sveinbra
I like. I want to mount my dual120mm rad in the top of my stacker like you have your triple but I'm not sure how I'd go about doing it.
