the first attempt at the loop (had a prob with the chipset block barbs)

in the end i drained it all and rotated the top so they were vertical which made a much better fit :)

goodbye for now

[SaFrOuT]

wow very nice indeed

[kimandsally]

Awesome.

[igor0203]

This is soooo beatiful!!!

[Sc4mpi]

Cheers :) its not finshed yet got to tydie all the wiring and hide it all now the plumbing is done :D, btw its all internal too :cool:

[freecableguy]

Custom made blocks for the RAM and PWM? If not...post some linkage!

[eddieate]

nice work man :thumbsup:
wanna do mine for me? hehe
/Ed

[dastt]

lets see some temps

[[XC] leviathan18]

afaik the ram blocks arent custom made there is a thread in the WC sextion about them...

the pwm really dont know but it says in his description alphacool....

looks awesome but i think it wont perform great

[Sc4mpi]

ram blocks are made by aquacomputer, temps arnt bad and tbh it was more for silence than anything :)

cpu 31 idel, 38 load (asus temp probe probs not acurate)

gtx 1 32 idel, 36 load

gtx 2 31 idel, 36 load

[[XC] moddolicous]

Wow, very nicely done. What type of RAM is that?? I hope its VX, so u can get some nice clocks around 265 2-2-2-5 or so. Whats the X2 running @? And also, will it be on 24/7??

[mtb856]

Wow, that is beautiful.... very impressive job on that system :)

[Sc4mpi]

err 2530 ( stock volts) 230x11 what its been chugging at for the past week.

ram is ocz pc3200 platimum 2x1024, 2.3.2.5


um yer its usaly left on most of the time

[Sheik]

:banana: Man that looks awesome. So much water :D

[gert_bobo]

very sweet and clean
wish i had had the money for such a nice setup

P.S.: how silent is this now?

[Flak Monkey]

WOW :slobber: :eek2: Thats awesome.

[Sc4mpi]

very sweet and clean

greetz Gert AkA B0B0
P.S.: how silent is this now?

err with the fans on 70% via the aquero its inaudible

there are 3 vantec stealths on the rad, and 2 80mm adda's at the bk

[oasked]

Thats a very clean setup - very cool! :D

Smoked window? How'd you do that? (or is it just the camera angle?)

Extremly Nice pc dude :toast:

[mishy]

Looks amazing,great pipe work etc.
have u not thought of taking off the fans grills? i found it reduces air turbulence quiet a bit.

[Welz]

this, my friend is pimp

[ferrari_freak]

Looks pimp. 2 complaints though.

1. What did your pumps do to you that you're torturing them in such a manner?

2. Do you know what happens when water leaks from the barbs? :banana: Feel sorry if that ever happens to you, and you got LOTS of barbs there.

In all, looks very pimp. Nice job.

Usama aka Ferrari Freak

[Sc4mpi]

there compression fittings, there not going to leak (touch wood)

the pumps are fine. they are running at 49 hz and seem perfectly happy,

[muaddib]

The interiors are beatiful indeed. Nice manifestation of excellent workmanship.

[Sc4mpi]

hello again :)

right after having it all rigged up iv encounterd some rather big problems i need to get solved.

1.The bip tripple is at its max it takes almost 8 mins to pull back down to idel temp
2. the second problem is there is a lot of hot air accumilating in the case that cant escape. somthing i dint invisige during the planning :( , which means anything that dosnt have a waterblock will heat up drasticly aka the psu.

the old plan

http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y266/Sc4mpi2/bh2/loop2.jpg

basicly

(intake) 3x120mm 1x120mm = 60cfm (aprox) 3x60cfm = 180cfm

(exaust) 2x80mm 1x80m = 30cfm (aprox) 2x30 = 60cfm

that kinda sums it up, there is less than half the hot air being vented from the case,

so i got my tapemesure out and started thinking a way around the problem and this is what iv come up with

the new plan

http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y266/Sc4mpi2/bh2/revisedloopp.jpg

if the res is moved to a bay mount with a fill pipe or some sort hidden behind the mobo tray to allow filling whilst case if vertical and the dvd-rw is put into a external caddy (i hardly every use it :S)

then there is enought room to fit a bip dual 120mm up there with 2 vantec stealths and a aquacomputer dual 120mm grill.

This would not only add the cooling by alowing the hot air to be exausted out the top (since the rad would be at the opposite end of the loop)

but it would also create a perfect ballence for the air flow

(intake) 3x120mm ,1x120mm = 60cfm (aprox) 3x60cfm = 180cfm

(exaust) 2x80mm + 2x120mm ,1x80m = 30cfm (aprox) ,1x120mm = 60cfm (aprox) 2x30 = 60cfm 2x30cfm+3x60 = 180cfm

so 180cfm in and 180cfm out which to me seems a much better setup :)

sc4mpi out

[Sc4mpi]

well this project is kinda coming to a close its near enough finshed bar the 2 back fans. any way the bip daul got fitted, the dual 80gig seagates were relaced with 2 74gig raptors, and psu was swapped out for a pcp&c 510sli so it fitted nicly in behind the rad. (tagen was 175 mm long, the pcp&c 140mm long)

anyways some pics :)

[EnJoY]

Those two pumps simply have no pressure, and with all those blocks, a massive rad, small id tubing, and all those bends and elbow fittings, you were getting like zero flow. Also, all those blocks on one rad was too much.

Other than the fact that from a performance stand point this system is far from excellent, it sure does look awesome and I bet it's rather quiet.

[Sc4mpi]

its cold, well cold enough for me , and quite to :) (theres 2 rads in there btw, and it still has enough flow to make a jet affect at the front of the res, i wasnt looking for amazing performance as its 10mm. but i wanted it quite, somthing my other 1/2" rigs havnt been

[5days]

Where did you get that grill for the top rad? :slobber:

[en4cer]

Looks amazing! I like a silent Gamer rig :D

[SamHughe]

Wow! That thing looks sexy for sure! Awesome job! Too bad that Pcp&c 510sli is a real screamer. Mine is making my ears bleed right now.

[Sc4mpi]

the delta in the pcp&c was replaced with a papst 80mm i had laying about :) the top rad is blowing air out the case and it seems to remove a lot of heat off the psu, the case is cold to the touch as i said.

Err, grill is a aquacomputer evo 240 , the one in the fans at the bottem is a custom one i got made to fit the rack.

[mikenam]

nice. so u don't have a dvd drive anymore?

[Sc4mpi]

its in a icybox external caddy as i barly use much anymore

[Ender17]

wow, nice

[[cTx]Philosophy]

totally sweet work man, noise I dont quite mind much, what I wanna know is, ur cpu at load is 38 which to me sounds good for a X2 @ ur speed, is ur IHS removed?
Also Whats your overclock on the cpu future and what about the GTX's?

[Sc4mpi]

Ta.. err the IHS is still on. i havnt realy had any time for and good overclocking or tinkering time. that will come a bit later,
gtx's are at 540, 1500 ;)

[lowfat]

That is truely one of the sexiest setups I have ever seen.

[l3ored]

well done, looks awesome.

[olfen]

any problem with replacing the fan in the pcp&c? like it getting to hot or something?
:edit: what papst model did you use?

[Sc4mpi]

it did geta tad roasty after 6 hours of bf2, but the rails dint drop at all fan was a papst "8412 NGML" . iv since put the delta back in just for till for the mean time.

[Evil Gnomes]

If you could watercool the hard drives, chipset, Video cards, CPU, RAM and mofsets, I'd say you were rich, but if you can watercool them with Innovatek Products :slobber:

Very nice work, now give some money.



Please?

[[cTx]Philosophy]

I have to agree its one of the prettiest pcs Ive ever seen built, and the fact that all these high dollar top of line components are in it just make it that much more appealing...

Awesome work bro... LOL ive had a cable sleeing kit here for over 2 months and havent even went as far as to put that on yet :(

You make me feel like such the noob!

It worked out cheaper for me to finshed it off with innovatek blocks as i had the gpu blocks laying about there 6800 blocks that i modded to fit the 7800's, and the rest was mostly cheaper that the 1/2" counter parts also u dont think i realy could have fitted it all this in with 1/2" :rolleyes:

[Sc4mpi]

ow yer i manged to dig out a pic of the underside of the case, :) the grill protecting the rad.

Very nice black, blue, silver theme you got going there... good work!

[1031.nu]

Nothing short of amazing ... great job

[dietwaterrr]

what a sexy monitor XD.

[ferrari_freak]

Even though I still don't approve of using so many blocks, plus hd water cooling, I just can't get enough of those looks :slobber:

VEry nice case you got there, how much time did it take you *approx. from start to finish?

[ZIZI]

[menace2k5]

Very nice, very 'clean' :)

[Sc4mpi]

Cheers guys :), time, probs took at least 3-4weeks of work. and a month of planning :D

iv just started another one, thats well on the way ;)

Long time no updates: Purly cause i dint have a cam but hey, here we go :)

well theres some smallish updates coming in the bh2 way, iv noticed the flow seems to be getting lower and lower recenty , so im guessing there could be a blockage somewere, either that or the three 1/8" blocks are just killing the flow so dam much, so i got to come up with a solution for that,

i managed to get a couple of flow meters that i can rig into the aquaero to monitor it all, plus iv got a cunning plan for spliting it out, since theres 2 pumps and 2 rads already in it, i could almost run it as two seperate loop sharing the same res 1/4" on one, and 1/8th on the other, which will solve the problems with the 1/8" blocks

i also rigged up the aquaero relay mode, so that if anything stops or jitters it will trigger the emergency shutdown (the aquaero is directly wired into the powerswitch) and it works (unpluged one of the the pumps for a simulated fault, and it shuts down :D this is were the Aquaero realy is worth its cost

well the solution to the problem, wasnt that hard to work it out in the end :)

[Sc4mpi]

Well took 6hours to strip and rebuild the cooling, but all the bits and bobs are in now, and fit :P

been setting up the aquaero, so here a taster

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v205/Sc4mpi/aquaeroresults.jpg

Ill get a some pics of the case and cooling tommorws hopefully ill try to borrow a mates camera :)

i belive the flow sensors are calibrated right, 232 pulses is that right for innovatek flowmeters rev 2.0?

[Sc4mpi]

so any way time to give you some updated pics,

^^ yes there is two watercooling loops in there, and i worked out yesterday i think there must be about 8meters of tube in there as well :p:

iv got to fit the tinted plexi i have in a box, but other than that, this project is coming to a close, and its been a fun one :D

Comments welcome

as for now this is sc4mpi signing out! :D

(p.s all of the above has been pulled from my log overat bit tech, here (http://forums.bit-tech.net/showthread.php?t=98605)) so if you want more info, check it out

I love it!

[viddax^2]

Just awesome Watercooling. Congrats. Keep the good work.:banana:

[jetjaguar]

hmm awesome work man .. one of the best i have seen ..

that lian li case .. would there be enough room to run the bip III with 1/2 tubing .. while cooling 2x sli'd 512mb gtxs and a cpu block ?

all 1.2 tubing ? i would just run the bip III on the bottom ..

also where is the tubing routed from the barbs of the rad on the bottom .. is there really enough room ?

the bip 3 at the bottem was one of the biggest challenges in the entire project. the cd rack had to be modded. and the rad shifted to the window side of the case to clear the mobo headers, and even now it only has 2mm max clearence, personaly i would say no to the 1.2" idea but if you plan it, it may be depnds what gfx blocks you use it would haft to be maze 4's . the problem would be were would you put you pumps, and what res would you have. also depends on the mobo.

[ReD.SkY]

hehe... THE most pimp WC ever!

[Nicksterr]

REALLY REALL cool man, now build a custom case and use all 1/2" tubing:)
