no lol, I just started a gallery to see other people's setups. That is an awesome one I found online.

Anyways, all my parts are ordered and should be here Monday.

[Çhrist0ph]

didnt we used to have wc case gallery? or am i thinking about the case gallery in the 3d section....

[echow87]

nice system a5h, must be a pain to change components

[ocmyface]

ooh lemme know how that passive cooling goes :)

Swiftech Block 5002-W I think
Eheim 1048 Pump
Clearflex 1/2" Tubing
Acrylic Resvoire
JR-120 Rad with Chrome 120mm Fan

[echow87]

schweet cases, gonna post my up when Im finished.

[afireinside]

Maze4
procore push pull setup dual evercool alu frame fans

I'd really like to put the pump inside the case and top mount a dual 120MM heatercore and use my bayres again...

Stars on wall were from when I was 4 :p:

Stupid orange UV dye wont work with my cheapo tubes :stick:

[scrible88]

These all look great. I can't wait until I get the $ to finish mine. I am sitting 2875mhz on air so I am hoping for 3ghz on water.

I think I actually will upgrade to a 6800gt first before I finish ordering all my watercooling parts.

[afireinside]

3ghz on water :eek: Has anyone gotten it yet?

This rig is cooling a very hot P4 2.4c @ 3.5, AIW 9800 450 core and NB and it's giving me 6c above ambient idle and 10c load. Although I measured using MBM5 and a temp probe I don't really know how accurate these readings are. I have asked on other threads but there is too much conflicting information and I'm lacking the tools to find out for myself. Even if I add 10c more I would still be happy with my temps :)
It was a good project and it was very worth it, I had a lot of fun and learned a lot. Looking forward to learning more from it and helping out newbees :) with what I can.

"Comments" is one of the reasons I posted this, so, any and all are welcome.

[nCrusader]

REDKEN, we have in some aspects a vey similar hardware rig, both running a 2.4C @ 3.5GHz with Whitewater and cooling GPU and NB with MCW20 & MCw50

That's one big raddy you got there.. I who thought mine was big =D

[NikolauZi]

all 120mm fans can be turned off (and are usually turned off). the 172mm fans in the middle are 24v fans @ 12v - so they are supersilent. so the loudest thing are the two hdds ;-)

Here's my radiator, made of 50' of 3/4" copper pipe:
http://home.comcast.net/~pelikan/graphics/wcpipes.jpg

The hole for the radiator has plastic so I can keep the ground wet to increase heat transfer.
http://home.comcast.net/~pelikan/graphics/wcplastic.jpg

Iwaki 20RZ.
http://home.comcast.net/~pelikan/graphics/iwaki.jpg

The water is 10-15C. To prevent condensation without insulating, I sealed up the case so no air comes in or goes out. The air is recirculated inside and cooled by the heatercore, which of course has the cold water going through it.

lol, i've seen peopel do that sort of thing, some dude did one in his garage underneath a big shelf. you must have a huge pump for that huh?

[pelikan]

Yeah, I was using a Grundfos circulator pump that has 25' of head and 1250 gph, but it used 185W and I got sick of paying for it on my electric bill. So I just bought an Iwaki 20RZ. It uses about 55W and still has 22' of head. It's working great.

[yaboc]

looking Jethro.
is the loop going through cesspit or something ;)

[Jethro]

if u notice the new hose i installed the fluid is perfectly clear its the hose that discolors over time. Also look at my bayres. 95% distilled water maybe 5% DEXCOOL orange coolant. Its clearflex hose perhaps i need to get tygon?> temps are great and blocks and rad hold up extremely well so i dont mind much.

[travanx]

chenbro xpider very small sized case, had to plan a lot to fit everything in here.

here is my casemod to fit the HC and how tight it is in the case.
http://www.cdin.net/graphics/cutaway.jpg

here is the finish, 16 C drop at full load compared to the thermalright and zalman 7000 heatsinks I tried. And basically the same loudness, nearly silent, can kind of hear the DD D4 pump, but the panaflo 120mm M fan is turned down a little. =)

Here is my Rig. The specs are in my sig. I dont have much in the way of external pics as there is no point because i run withouth case panels at the moment. Besides they are boring white case panels.

the system is so celan looking becasue i only have one hd connected (usually 2 SATA drives) and only one cd drive connected. All of hte PSU cables are hanging out hte back of the computer at the moment. When i get my new parts i will fix it all up.

And the pics

That thing is really nice 027. Nice looking setup. A much different approach than i took. I gave up on having it look nice when i realized that i coudnt make my case look good (7 year old Fulll atx case). So as of now i run without case panels and wires hanging out everywhere.

a flow meter? nice!

ah so that is what it is... I am retarded. I would take pics of my setup, but it's just a mess of wiring and tubes and random fans in odd spots... but ugly cases need love too.

[MegadetHCl]

WOW what the hell is that? 8|

This is a Proteus Industries 200 Series flow meter . The spinning impeller contains magnets at the tips, which generate a current in the coil that is located in the housing of the meter, separated from the chamber. The current, generated in the coil by the Hall effect, is directly proportional to the rotational speed of the impeller, thus being linearly indicative of the flow through the meter. The second half of the flow meter contains all the electronics that interpret the current and convert it to a 0-5VDC analog output. It also contains a relay with an adjustable trip point.

I connected the Red Lion DC voltmeter to read the analog output from the flow meter. Also, this model of the meter can be set to scale the readout, and this is how I calibrated the meter to display 100 under normal circamstances. The buzzer is connected externally and is activated when the relay inside the flow meter senses flow that is below a set point.

The flow meter is able to output analog voltage signal that is proportional (very linearly) to the flow, and I have calibrated the panel meter to show 100, as in 100 percent, under normal conditions. I can adjust the voltage supplied to the pump through a pot, and the meter mirrors the reduced flow quite nicely, bottoming out at 36%, at which point the relay inside the flow meter trips off another relay that is connected to a loud buzzer, giving a nice warning signal.

[MaxxxRacer]

You are not looking hard enough. Look at the top view pic, see the white cap? It is attached (velcroed) to the rear side of the mobo, you can see it in the pumps pic.

[Torin]

Aha. I see it now, also in the last pic. It kinda just blended in with everything else. The t-line is connected between two pumps, correct?

Yes, the order goes (hold on to yer pants): pump 1 (upsidedown pump) > tee line > pump furthest from mobo > pump closest to mobo > rad > CPU > GPU > pumps. Those pics don't show my recently added Fusion HL block, suppose I should reshoot it.

[o27]

DaveDude - you´re a little wrong it goes in the top rad which i a Thermochill 120.3 and the bottom rad is a DD double heatercore. And yes i "only" have one Iwaki MD-15R pump. Regarding how much flow i have - i have no idea! But i guess the big head of the pumps equals things out, cause my load temp on my FX-51@2647mhz is around 40c wiht my X800XT PE@600/585mhz is 33c!! so something IS working

I have purchased a professional chiller and will be installing it this Winter. Remember if you put rad outside or in chilled water you will have to deal with condensation. I plan to use the chiller to get coolant just above ambient. I'm not interested in dealing with condensate at this time![/QUOTE]http://www.aqualogicinc.com/chillers/deltastarmain.jpg

that is pretty trippy. How is the flow with the last block that you showed. From the looks of it, its has to give horrible flow...

And how does each of them cool?

wow stardust how is your radiator holding up like that?

Surprisingly, my CPU never goes past 48C and my GPU never goes past 45C anymore. The fan is still only running half speed, and both my CPU and GPU are overclocked. Goes to show, you don't need a perfect loop or large radiator to get satisfactory temperatures. So far my motherboard is limiting my overclock, until I get a new motherboard, i'll stick with this setup.

People say I could be getting ~35C temps w/ better rad etc. but I don't see how that would help me in any way..

[aCidbAbY]

here is my first try:D

last pic is the b4 picture.
i plan to paint the outside black. (the inside is white really makes the colors stand out:D)
of course it still needs some work.

[aCidbAbY]

how are you getting temps like that with a koolance case?

[Paxi]

So thats mine
Blacklight not in at the moment because of no space :) coming soon

[redstang308]

with the rad out the window, here in NH it is very cold usually, without the extra rad I usually get 30C under full load

[notoriousformula]

caLume: Nice setup :)..Any inside pics?

thx

[aCidbAbY]

thats a chilly pressy:D

[redstang308]

yeah i like the temps just need to find the bottleneck in my sys for higher ocing

[Adasi]

Thats my temporary cooling. CPU is waiting for home made phase change :D. On my gfx you can see my home made waterblock, I know it's not very impressing but I think it's cool :P The case is being repainted that's why everything is on the floor :) .

Nope, I have the bottle right here, Zerex Water pump lubricant and Protector (prevents Rust & Corrosion) Although there was several different zerex for different functions this one was the one I picked LOL it's just color I'll just add a few drop of UV Dye I have right here and i'm ready to go.

[specialblend218]

idleuser, nice looking machine there. The coolant is a unique color. Try a few drops of dye-lite in there to make it glow really good.

very small rad, which temps have you got ?

[jopers1986]

max under load of 45 which isn't great, but couldn't fit anything more inside :( might invest in a slightly bigger case soon!

[idleuser]

what kind of radiator are you running jopers?

[jopers1986]

it came with an astek kit, that i bought of a mate, with some bits changed such as the barbes for thicker tubes and a different res!

[jopers1986]

aparently as i've been told the rad is a black ice pro

[aCidbAbY]

wow that last pic is amazing. shouldnt you run the pump to the rad then cpu though?

Thnx, it is the only way that works for my setup since my rad is outside my case. I have another 12" UV tube coming soon.

From my xp2500-mobile days - also some humor in the beginning.

I am coming to the conclusion that the energy removal requirements need more than even just an xp120, & the fans are beginning to annoy me too. So looks like I may need to update my current box to WC again. (looks around @ stuff to mount, not so extreme as b4 but still....)
Looking to use cascade WB on bare 90nm, so should work well and I'm just cooling the CPU this time. Will mod a mcp350 for flow (may just mount a reservoir to the top of the pump :hehe: ) and use a small(er) rad.

Thanks for the feedback :) I pull the res back into the case and hold it above the pump to fill. Bleeds in about 3 - 4 minutes, really convenient. I had too much cable-clutter on top so opted for bottom location in case. I didn't mount the res. in a bay because this is a "version 1" polyres that doesn't have a vented fill port, so it's a PITA to top off without tilting it. I like to keep it as full as possible to avoid the sloshing noises with a 1/2 full res.

I'm in the process of trying to get this thing sold. And thanks to many of the not only nice, but informative people here, I will make another setup using quality parts, bigger tubing, and I will do it right!

[MaxxxRacer]

wow.. not sure if that is more ghetto that my rig or not.. lol

[FallenAngel]

No, maxxx it's sc00p who have almost the same tubes as you, btw soon I will send you some pics of my setup

[sc00p]

FallenAngel: what do you meant with word "ghetto" when related it to tubing of my rig? I'm just asking because i'm just a finnish guy, perhaps i didn't quite got it, it's cool anyways - non taken.

There is nothing outside case or so on...
...tube is plain silicon tube (15/12) which you could find from every "plastic-store" for few dollars/euros/1 m. The best IMO. Everything in my case is made just for it's purpose. As large turns with tube to avoid an extra resistance in flow of liquid (liquid in circulaion is called AG-Supercooler: some racecar corrosionsinhibitor - ready for use, the best again IMO. Have it going on in the coolersystem for few years). U-turn going from NB to CPU is what I made of acryl tube and bent it after applying some heat to it first (it is good to use some tightly fitting silicon tube inside acryl tube when benting it - that way you don't get any wrinkles to acryl tube).
I have tryed to have low resistance and high flow circulation. Tightest inner diameter is 12mm at those GPU/NB-block barbs, to which I fitted some brass barbs (after I drilled them to 12mm). CPU block was M-maze type which I dremeled to U-type block and welded new copperbarbs. In that block the canal diameter is about 13mm at tightest point: works well IMO.
Finally i would say: never use tight 90 degrees turns <-killers of the flow. And reservoirs are something like useless. And do not use pumps needed to dip into water.
Ah, uh: almost forgot to brag that this rig of mine is virtually silent...
...and now shoot me :) (to silence, I falled to babbling, I know)

[Nubius]

The T line is just for emptying the system out. All filling and air bleeding is done through the res up top. Well the only reason I asked that was because I thought he didn't have a res at all or something

[sc00p]

Well the only reason I asked that was because I thought he didn't have a res at all or somethingYou didn't saw the reservoir at top of the box
:confused:

[Nubius]

You didn't saw the reservoir at top of the box No at quick glance it just looked like a simple pump, not a pump/res

[FallenAngel]

FallenAngel: what do you meant with word "ghetto"
Sorry, it was a joke meant to Maxxx and not to you, I'm sorry if my statement offended you, it was not intended, and for what is worth I like your rig. And it wasn' I who said "ghetto" anyway.

[sc00p]

Like I assumed before: I didn't got your joke and said earlier non taken :) :cool:

Very nice and clean setup there flutie.

thnx :D

[Cashman]

I know this is only a Waterchill Kit, but I have a very small case and wanted to give watercooling a try.

Ive only used air and Phase Change cooling in the past and now want something nice and quiet, without losing the temptation to overclock :)

Any way, here is my little snaps :)

[Nubius]

Not bad at all Cashman, better than my bigwater was haha, think I got a buyer for that though and hopefully within a month I'll have a better setup.

One things that's always bugged me, those blocks with the 3 tubes perform a lot better than say a danger den TDX style? Are those also impingement blocks or no? I'm still learning :D

[AH^DK]

MY Lian LI PC-75B case with a Asetek Universal CPU block, Black ICE Pro 120mm, Hydor L20 and a Asetek RSV02 res.

Temps: 27c idle (winny 3000+ stock) 30c Load (Stock).

30c idle (2,2ghz 3000+) 34c Load (2,2ghz).
This is measured with Asus PC-Probe, so dont know if it is that correct.

[jopers1986]

Heres my new case :)

with a nice 120.3 in the bottom, and a total of 10 120mm fans :D yays

i had to add an extension to my desk as this case is HUGE!!!!!!

[sparky1_2007]

i'll be posting a picture or 2 of my WC set-up soon, but dont laugh, because i havent cut teh tubes at all, because its cooling my old system, and not new yet...

[jopers1986]

[cetoole]

Here is my current setup, but you can't see much of the WC hardware. The pump is MCP350, rad is Weapon 2-302+shroud, fans are 2 Sanyo Denki San Ace, block is MCW6002.

Hopefully I'l have all my ducks in a row and possibly have my external box up and providing real cooling.

[Brandon_Tyler]

What's the issue with the L30? grinding, vibration? If it's a "meat" grinder kinda sound then drain your loop and inspect your pumps shaft to see if its grooved. If it is Ive got a phone number to Hydor USA, they can get you replacement parts.

-Brandon

Hehe I just noticed you're in Europe, it then might be easier for you to contact Hydor directly since they are an Italian company.

[caLume]

hum, i got the same pump. it isnt worth to use it.

now i use eheim, i love it :)

[FallenAngel]

Sorry Brandon, it's already too late 'cos it was my 2nd who did the same noise and too much vibratoin, too much heat and I just received my new MCP600 from Cooltechnica.

as a side note I'm new to WC and somehow I think is my fault so no worries, thanks for the offer though

[Brandon_Tyler]

New shafts corrected the noise I had in both of mine. Now all i hear is the in rush of air thru the vanes of my rad.

[Vandread]

The cooler: :cool:
The system: :cool:
https://home.comcast.net/~mikeehrlich/dfinf4/nf4casefc.jpg

What are those 2 fans doing next to ech other on your rad?
That setup doesnt really help imho.
Use PushPull instead of this (put a 120mm fan on both sides of the rad) ;)

[caLume]

when the first fan turns right and the secon left
its some kind of turbine ;)

[Vandread]

haha yea the noise would be like a turbine :D

[Psyche911]

It's probably just a shroud...
So the one on the radiator has the fins & motor gutted. My guess...

[Paxi]

My new watercooling setup:
New Radiator(Watercool HTF 3 Tripple X with 1x Silent Fan and 2xAc Ryan Modding fans. Than i replaced my old Innovatek X-Flow with a pure copper block and i added the Gpu-X Heatkiller rev2 with mosphet cooler to my graphic card.
Got ~50C load under prime on my Cpu
and ~45C load on my graphic card, both ocled ;>

Will do a last update soon.. on the top of my case are many cables because i used many cable adaptors for the fans.. so i will get a fan controller that there aren´t so much cables and the system is also a bit quieter, maybe i will also get some new Ide cables because the ones from DFI are not twistable.

Dont wana sound like a mum but... when your pump fails and the water warms up the hoses warm up and the water expands so the hoses might come off..... :stick:
So i know your setup looks nice and clean, but aint it "wise" to put some hose clamps on there ;)

ps: are those blocks home made? Or what brand are they?
Your setup looks sweet ^_^

Psyche911 wins the boobie prize!
'Fan' Next to rad is empty and a spacer = no dead spot on rad :hehe: :D :lol:

@ Dymone - I hope the WB dead spot showing in most of your pics isn't constant? :eek:

[Lord_RTKK]

Well, here is a pic of my WC system.
Its formed by Honda Civic radiator w/ 2xVantec Tornado 92mm, custom CPU Waterblock made by me, simulating a comercial design (Ketchak nº4) and home made waterblocks by p0stman, a Spanish waterblock maker.
The pump is a Hydor L20 (yes, this big :banana::banana::banana::banana: :()
In this photo, the system is mounted in an Abit KV8 Pro, 3200+ NC and 9800 Pro. Now it is mounted in a DFI NF4 Ultra D, 3200+ and Leadtek 6600GT, but without the chipset waterblock, because its hard to mount on the DFI NF4 and the mobo perform very well without more cooling in the chipset... :D

Thanks for your advice but there are silicon hoses in my pc. These hoses dont extend with increasing temperature. And also good fit on the fitings without hoses clamps ;)

RePS :) : yes those are homemade blocks.

2 mad mike : its already resolved ... i had to lean my case.

i like the rad though... im probably going to swap out everything else lol

[aCidbAbY]

thats is the smallest tubing ive ever seen!
why is the fan outside of the case?

[funkflix]

Tubing? Dunno what u mean. :)

The fan is in the sidedoor, so he is not "outside"! ;)

[Master_G]

What blue LED fan is that? Looks good.

[MaxxxRacer]

acidbaby, its IV line :p: lol

[racinjimy]

Those crazy euro guys and there 1/8" tubing :rolleyes:

[heater918]

Just finished mine....... :D

Nice, I have similiar setup in progress only difference is pump location mine is
below PSU. What fans on rad?

[racinjimy]

I actually am using panaflo L's. They aren't supposed to work with radiators this thick but I thought I'd try it anyway. I have no temp issues at all and I run them only about 1/2 way on my fan controller. I sealed around the metal shroud and between the shroud and the fans with foam tape.

My ambient temps are pretty low right now (18-20C), we'll see how this works in the summer!

[Lord_RTKK]

Those crazy euro guys and there 1/8" tubing :rolleyes:

Im european as well, and I use 1/2" tubing... :D :D

Clearflex with Dye-Lite UV dye.

Thanks for the coments guys. :toast:

i am loveing that case special, is it a mountain mod?

very sexy!

Yes, I love it too. So much easier to swap parts in this thing.

[Cashman]

Here's my little effort...

I have also added a pair of 80mm fans, one cools the RAM and the other cools the PWM IC on my DFI SLI-DR.

[zeebs]

Nice, I am a big fan of the wave master.

[nicholarse]

Cashman - I think you probably said on EP-UK but why did you loose the phase change? I only ask because I'm wondering whether to move from phase to water.

Anyway - really like the look of your setup.

[Cashman]

Hey Nicholarse,

I sold my Mach II GT because I was just fed up of a number of things. Sure the overclocks were amazing and the benchmark scores were something else.

These are the things that started to annoy me about the Mach II GT and my Previous Vapochill and why I changed to water:

1) Fedup of removing the mobo and ripping all the seal string off everythime I change CPU/Mobo.

2) My missus uses the PC for the odd letter or bit of work and I didnt like her using a PC running at its max OC for that. Esp as if summat went wrong, she would just leave it.

3) The amount of elec the unit uses was costly.

4) I never felt 100% comfortable leaving the PC on for 24 hours whilst I downloaded stuff off Bittorrent.

5) I got bored of Benching and only wanted a straight forward PC that would ALWAYS work and yet still allow me to OC and play my games.

6) I fancied a little bit of Silence :)

All in all I have loved my Phase change units but I now just want an easy life. So far Watercooling has been more fun and really nice and simple.

[nicholarse]

Argh! I really can't decide....

I agree with all of those things you say, but then I start thinking of the benches...

[Necromonger]
