Ok thanks, I have a drill, after work I will go grab that hole cutter, and then take measurements for the holes.
How did you guys get that part done? Ex: Process in which you traced the holes, and the drilling holes to mount the rad to the case. I guess thats my biggest concern is how you lined it all up.
set square, ruler and i made a template by joining all the individual shrouds together (before thermochill offered a complete single solution like they do now)Quote:

Yeah the TDX comes with a long screw like shaft that you place in the MB holes. Under that you screw on a little locking nut, put a washer under that, and then its just a matter of screwing it down. Really easy
Masking tape on where you want to cut and then lay it out on there :D, cut thru tape...Quote:

Yeah that looks good, but do the 90 deg angles mess with the flow rate much?
It's aquacomputer, it never had much flow to begin with. :rolleyes:Quote:

My rig.... changing EVERYTHING, going phase in next few days. Got 2 double hc's for sale. Pm Me =) Pictures are kinda old, i did some wire managements since i put it together in a hurry and got a CM mobo blower. And there's a second double hc in the grate on the bottom the case. Temps high 30's cooling a 3700+ Sandy at 1.65v at 260 x11/x3 1:1. :cool:

You will like the phase changing Im sure.

donno if you were talking to me :D but it seems like i'm the only one w/ the wires. Yah like i said those are old pictures, and most of the wires coming from the psu are managed, only the LED wires are a jungle! :mad:Quote:

System breakdown:

Clearflex60 1/2"ID / 3/4" OD tubing
Swiftech MCP655 pump
T-Line
DD fillport (totally unnecessary, but kinda nice)
Is your flow setup right? I thought it was from pump to the rad.
Flow order doesnt matter as long as its not pump>res lol.Quote:

mine? its pump->CPU->Rad->pumpQuote:
