Yes, direction of the flow and since it is a dual core, orientation really doesn't matter unlike a quad core.Quote:

I thought that the outlet was on the 'top' to make bleeding easier; the way you have it seems like it would allow bubbles to be trapped in the block.Quote:

I know the apogee gt is different than the d-tek but mine is technically upside down to so I could have the flow going the way I wanted and prefer not the way it is meant.Quote:

yeah right like that is a reflection seen via your cpu....
if that would be realy treu that would be SICK!!:eek:
that would have cost you like 12 hours orso...
It's true ;) polished from P600 -> P800 -> P1000-> P1200 ->P2000
One hour for each pass (EDIT)
Hour or is there some lingo I don't know? If it is one hour. . .. . dear god.Quote:

I'm sorry, but I have to ask this respectfully.
Are those passive rads aluminum, or do they have copper internals?
That SSD holder makes the drives look amazing
anodized aluminium, over 10 month with faser one liquid and coper rad is fine, in last sunday i was opened my fusion and is clean inside.Quote:

What's the purpose of the side radiators? Or whatever there called? lol. Why not just use the triple rad to cool the GPU/CPU?Quote:

Cheers dude! Love the name change too. "WhiskeyAqua" is probably more fitting in this thread huh? :)Quote:

Also, the smoked black acrylic that I replaced the original clear side panels with does a much better job of "filtering" out cathode glow and dust, giving a cleaner overall look.
Hope that helps :up:
Many thanks for the kind comments bentleya, glad you like it. :p:Quote:

What's the best place for a watercooling build log on these forums anyhows?
http://i479.photobucket.com/albums/r...a82/best14.jpg
Here's another one to keep you entertained
That would be in the Liquid Cooling Worklog subforum of the Liquid Cooling forum ;) [long winded way of saying things]
Here are two pics of my first two machines, more in my worklog.

Id love to comment your system, but the picture is so big i cant take it all in.
Resize it please :)
Should I start a new thread on this with some rules?
I'd hate to lose all the info and photos in here...it's a great source of ideas and inspiration.Quote:

All right. So, you guys want me to start a new comment free gallery thread along with the link of this thread?
This thread has worked so well for such a long time as is. We've only had a few complaints out of the large number of users who peruse this thread daily.Quote:

I agree, but this thread contains so many dead and oversized pictures. So, I thought we'd need a fresh thread to continue this with new rules for posting pictures. Also, this thread will not go anywhere. :)Quote:
