Looks like that block fits in with the stock heatsink like a puzzle piece. I would be worried that the block isnt making good contact with the stock heatsinks, if that is how the block is made.
Hello new here.
This is mine :)

Still needs a bit of tidying up.. especially with the PSU
Woah lol, how the heck did you go from green to orange on the gpu waterblock?
Lo0L! I guess he's just using colored tubing and not colored additive\coolant. Am i right Mister Carbine ?Quote:

I'm thinking about putting an EK block on the northbridge.
The thought of taking the loop apart makes me shiver though. :D
I did put a fan over the mem/nb heatsink, cooling is sufficient atm but watercooling the nb looks better.
Really like the front, but the inside.. :p:Quote:

You shouldn't have your D5 pumping into your res, you will be losing performance on your systemQuote:

I just really want one for my BX2

The rig consists of 3 separate loops cooling different components. CPU being blue, GPU being green/oarange and all the peripherals on orange/red

Here are pics of my 1st W/Cing setup i've ever built. Had a ton of fun installing everything, and I believe the end result was worth it. This setup is just cooling the CPU, and my conroe seems to be enjoying it:) Now let me see if I can insert the pictures the right way?
23C idle! That's really good for 3,6 G. I have Tuniq Tower and I have 37-40C :(. Getting water cooling soon :).
Hmm, I don't see another way to do it... my temps are just as good now as they were when I was using a t-line...Quote:

Nope, didn't have any problems filling at all.
I was thinking about wc'ing the nb also when i was planing project Zeus but i've decided to go with a descent nb hsf. Haven't regret it.Quote:

Get a MM UFO! :D
His pump is good, dude. His loop is going in the opposite direction of that which you perceive. ... unless im the one whos mis-perceiving something here:confused:Quote:

No.
Hes pulling the water out of his res, through his Storm and then through his GPU block. His loop is operating under a vacuum of sorts, not positive pressure like it "should" be.
This WAS my first step into custom water cooling... dont laugh it worked good. Dosent everybody have a custom griffin radiator laying around??

That is not good, because the positive pressure at the discharge would probably make water flow much more than the "low pressure zone" created by the suction and letting the "normal" pressured water fill it up. Thats why a vacuum cleaner has a super powerful fan but the suction is way weaker than the power of air blowing out.Quote:

serial, I was telling him that it was bad to run it like that. Its better to run it with positive pressure.Quote:
