Apogee GT
MCR220 QP
D5 pump
MicroRes reservoir
7/16" ID tubing

No overclocking (...yet - E6600). Want to make sure everything is stable first. CoreTemp is giving me idle temps in the mid 20s. TAT shows loads around 40.

Only room for six...;) The MicroRes sits up top. I had the Silverstone hard drive bay from another comp and used it here.

I have the same case, any suggestions on mounting the radiator up top? I'm also using a mcr220qp as it is the only rad that will fit up there:lol:

Did you just put screws thru the mesh?

Looks like you're using some brackets, where did you get em?:D

Looks great! But 40ºC load on stock speeds isn't so good. Faulty temperature?

I let TAT run for awhile and was averaging 35-36 on load. My main goal with this setup was a quiet computer and I achieved that far beyond my expectations.

LORD-eX-Bu, the radiator was not an easy task to fit up top. You can see this thread over at [H] - Top Mount Bracket (http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1144567)

awesome! thanks:D

Do you have any close up pics of those brackets? I guess I will be heading to lowes hehe:D

What size screws did you use to mount it up there?

I posted some close up pics in the [H] thread I linked. You'll have to do some Dremel work to them - not very hard. The screw size was 6-32 x 3/4.

Great setup! I really love the attention to detail you have, something I'm striving to get better at. Now start overclocking it.
