2hip, thats looks amazing. What kind of case is that?
I finished a bit of an overhaul on my rig a few days ago so thought I'd share some updated pics with you guys. I did some proper cable management, finally installed my EK Supreme, got the new DD block and backplates on my 280's and replaced my DDC res tops with XSPC acrylic ones. Loads of hose but a bit of bling :D, bit of a PIA to drain but ah well.......lol.

I'm confused, is that a dual loop?
Why do you run different sized tubing?
Of course it is a dual loop, can't you see the two pumps and two res's?Quote:

Yeah, interesting is the word for it all right lol. I was a bit worried about flow in the CPU loop but it's more than adequate I think, theres a GTX 360 with 4 110CFM Scythe Jynui's to cool it off so temps are good (CPU is idling around 30C with 3.6GHz, board @ 37C).
I went from EK res tops, 1/2" tubing to an MC-TDX, with t-junctions to feed 3/8" to the 4 chipsets, flow with the res tops wasn't even enough to let the Supreme do it's thing on its own and there was hardly any airflow in the case due to how I had the pumps positioned, definately not an ideal setup. I'm impressed with the XSPC top, it now runs fine even with 3 other blocks in the loop, plenty of airflow and my temps have improved further on everything so I'm happy with it for the time being.
The GPU loop is fine as is, 43C idle maxing at about 60C while folding isn't bad at all for 700MHz GTX280's imo :) MCP on that loop is @ 39C so still an improvement there too.
This is still my first W/C'd rig so I'm still learning but man it's fun and addictive!
To answer FilthySanchez, the different tube sizes was mainly because I had the MCP in that loop before and I couldn't fit 1/2" barbs on it with the GPU in the way, all the lengths were already cut in the 3/8" so I stuck with it and just removed the t blocks to try to help the flow a bit more. Next time I clean the loop, the 3/8 will be replaced with 1/2" and some bitspower compression fittings, except for the MCP which will have to stay 3/8 ;)
On a side note, anybody know if EK do case badges? I'd like one to sit next to the DD one on the window, I have a small obsession with stickers........:rolleyes:
Addictive is a good description lol. What are the load CPU temps? Idle seem pretty good [ambients are needed though].
Load temps hit 46C after about 20mins of small FFT's. I'm not sure about ambient but its early hours of morning here and 17C outside so I'd say 20ish or slightly more, warm enough to not be cold in just my underwear anyway lol. I've been meaning to run a long Prime test to get a max temp so I'll do it in the next few days probably.
can someone tell me
should i use 3x1220rpm or 3x2000rpm fans for my rad
i used to have the 1220 rpm fans with C2D cpu's
but i hooked up one Q9450 and thinks got warm
if i use 3 x 2000k rpm will be better or just wast of money ?
Great temps jarvo1!
What rad do you have Vatos? Sure 2000rpm fans will give you better temps but they are much noisier. What's the price difference? What's important to you?
to me ? temps no worries about the noise in normal levels :p
this is the rad Radiator MCR320QP 3X120
http://www.plaisio.gr/product.aspx?c...product=964735
If noise isn't a bother then of course go for the 2000rpm fans. :) Might want to hit Martin's site to see how much 2000rpm fans improve cooling. It might only be 2 C which isn't worth it.
ok i'll check it out thanks
thanks mateQuote:

I have removed the ac res and replaced it with an EK..can't even compare the quality...EK is so far beyond the alphacool res. Also ran the tubing into the top of res reducing tubing run length.Quote:
a potential mod could be to tap the side of that res near the top for an inlet (water flowing from the radiator) or get one that already has it like the EK. it would eliminate the long tubing run going down to the bottom, and would make the loop OH so clean.

@ DJstudio this thread isnt really the place for a worklog mate, you should make a thread in the worklog section.
I agree, post it when it's done and in all its glory.
I'd rather see pics of his empty case and drill than your blabber. I always enjoy revisiting CyberDruid's dusty old beast when he reposts it too *hint*. ;)
Removed my 8800GTX and had to patch up my loop with a bit of copper (all I had in the garage) while I wait for my EK-FC4870X2-N. Also upgraded power supply which is why the cables aren't routed through the tray holes behind motherboard. I'm actually waiting for core i7 so I can get rid of my Blitz Extreme.
Can't really see in second pic but also got rid of my Core Series waiting for v2. Need to get my D400 out and take some real pictures.
@RCG_Bex: Yep! E8400@4.05GHz, 4870x2, Blitz Extreme, 2GB XMS3, HX1000W, 2x Velociraptor 150GB [Raid 0], 2x OCZ Core SSD 64GB [Raid 0], Auzen X-Fi Prelude... D-tek Fusion, PA120.3, Scythe SFlex, Laing D5 Vario.... TJ07.
Arse those some SSD's I spy?

@ManoWaari: Don't be lazy, edit the pictures into the thread. :p: That's a lot of tubing, somehow seems like you could cut down the amount used. I could be mistaken though, nice and clean build!
@johnp1983: Is the Ybris block giving you good temps?
:O
good job john, looks good. i love the tracers and the ybris block.
what type of tubing are you using?
its almost there

The sleeve bearings die quicker if you push air upwards.
Great job Waari!
SICK!!! That loop is amazing (just as I imagined it would be!)Quote:

Tremeloes, you are an inspiration. I'm about to start a V350 build myself, and you have set the bar very high!;)
Your photography is second-to-none, great work! :cool:
Thanks!! That is really appreciated. this was my first WC build and a lot of work and planning went into it. i've said it before, but here goes again..XS has been absolutely great ...could not have done it without the info, help and feedback.Quote:

I'm usually not a great fan of yellow but that is simply superb. That photograph even makes the UV cathode look like it's supposed to be there. Can't wait for more pics.
that looks really nice, i kinda like the HI-C look
I just got a DFI Dark and was wondering what color to use. That's it perfectly. Sweet.
Here's one I built in 6 hours as a Cruncher/GPU-Folding Rig.

Nice and boring. It lives in the shop so the more boring the better.
Dude you should have got a Zotac 9800GT Amp! It has an orange pcb XD
Hey thanks I'll take a look. I like that tawdry slut color scheme...
Did someone say slut? :D
@CD, even your quick builds look good!
@Malik...really like the color scheme, except for the smart coils...I'm not a fan of smart-coils though.
looks nice CD
@malic
the silver tubes were my favorites...

Great rig. I know I've seen the worklog somewhere.
tremeloes, what do you do for a living?
@Tremeloes
Nice effect!
Although, we need to see some internals!
And we want a shot from above to see the tubing :D
CyberDruid, nice rocketfish :up:

thanks. sure you can have some. you only need a dark room and a flashlight... itīs quiet easy and makes a lot of fun.Quote:

looks like you could push the tubing on further on those bitspowers :s
Yup, caught that this morning when I was looking over the photos. Fixed.Quote:
