My bong setup..
Hey all..
My first venture into comp. modding/cooling...temps are 44c@load..1.584v (ambient around 28c-35c..dunno) 2620mhz(amd 3700+ on an asus sli premium)
These are from a video I took out from my Sony Handycam..so the quality aint good..I paused the video and hit 'Print Scrn'..heh..
(Any knows how to take pics from Sony Handycam DCRA-C121 please tell me :D)

Any suggestions/criticisms? (Apart from how untidy everything is :D)

:woot: I see cod2! And a mess! Temps seem high and clocks low though... Is it mounted well? Can your pump handle a bong that big?
-
hello..
Its mounted well :) Im in Mumbai so its like hot here..I'd say ambient is 33-35C.....right now the A/C is on so the idle is 30C..the pump is awesome..(making a heck lot of noise..heh) I'll try and get a pic of the shower(to show the flow..)..Flow is very nice indeed..
There is no As5 or anything (not available here..) on the CPU..
Any suggestions?
COD2 kicks ass :) hehe
-
NO thermal paste on the CPU? You need to get some form of thermal interface...
-
The cpu is fairly new..like a month old..(so is the mobo and graphics card-xfx 7800gtx)
I'm ordering AS5 from FrozenCPU.com..anything else I should get? I got like $100 budget..
Thanks for the help...
-
Yeah, I was thinking. Holy crap, YAY A BONGER! And then the temps. Somethings wrong. Another thing to look at is a better fan for the input, those fans are too multi directional.
Otherwise...
YAY FOR BONGS!
-
-
Told ya ;)
What else hmmm.... What pump you running?
-
your temps could easily drop by over 10C by adding thermal paste.
-
trying to get AS5....... :)
The pump specifications are; Monobloc Pump, Head 15M, LPH 240, Drive .05Kw .75A CONT., 230V AC/DC..
too much noise it makes :p
-
Heh. Doesnt seem like much flow, but a lot of head. A pump upgrade will help. Have you tried filling the bottom half of the bong with ping pong balls? And make sure you put a screen over the split so they dont fall out into the fan.
-
hello..
havn't tried the ping pong balls...will do..
where exactly to put a screen?sorry to be dumb, but what is a screen? like some small piece of cardboard or something?
Thanks for the help :)
Edit: theres a pump..1400LPH..head 15M (maybe more)..should I get it?? 1400lph? too much??
-
hey guys..I got a new pump(the other died :( ..shucks)..
It is :
Head :18M
Phase: 1
RPM: 2800
VOlt: 220
Amp: 5
size 19x19..
is it any good? its very quiet..but my temps are a bit higher I feel..
-
Adding quite a bit of heat into your loop running a pump that huge.
Even white thermal paste will work better than no paste at all.
This is avalable in ANY electronics place worldwide ... if you still cant get any there are other alternatives.
-
A screen like mesh or something air can get thru that ping pong balls cannot. You put it over the spot inside the bong were the fan break off is.
-
Hello..thanks for the help!
I'm getting a DFI motherboard today :D My friend is coming over..he has some AS5..should workout nicely :)
Will try the ping pong balls..I'll just put a small grill on the T-shaped endings...I added another T-Shape pipe and identical fan :)
-
no dfi today :(
im thinking of getting a peltier(and as5)..will my bong be able to cool it.....?
thx....
-
hey..
Got the bong back out again :) Missed it too much.Kept it in the drawing room..not much noise now :)
I'm getting 26C idle running AMD3700+@2739mhz at 1.66vcore.Load doesnt cross 40c!
Here's a few pics:

One question I have: Can I include a rad in this set up? Since I got a car rad lying around......
-
I am confused. Place the ping pong balls in the res, or in the Drop Chamber for the water? Is the water running over the surface of the balls better than just falling? Doesn't seem like having them in the res would do... well... anything... you know... as they FLOAT!
HEHEHE! One other thing to try with ping pong balls is lighting them on FIRE! They can actualy be ground up and used as a (poor) alternate for black powder (the things you learn when you work at a shooting range).
Hhhhmmm, maybe 4 parts rum, 1 part egg nogg was a poor choice of mixture. This post needs a warning label.
