It was expensive shipping, but Performance PC was not carrying a lot of this stuff back when I purchased. Actually, if you register at the mcubed store and then go back in, the prices drop for some reason.:shrug:
The shipping was by air and had tracking.
I just today received the digital sensor expansion set and purchased from performance PC. I think I calculated that if you buy from Performance PC versus Austria (mcubed), it basically is a wash. I would buy from PPC if buying today since they have everything.
If you look at my pictures, you will see a Tee before the reservoir. This has a $15.00 temperature probe that screws in and plugs into the bigNG to measure the water temps. I actually bought two of the temperature probes and left one outside of the case and one in the water loop. I then calibrated the temp probe to the digital sensor (more accurate) and made the same shift to the one in the water to get a more realistic water temp.
Pretty neat stuff to mess around with. This thread started me wanting this.

I bought the G1/4 Tee from Sharka.
First of all I wanted to thank Synxxx for the link. I always appreciate people who are interested in what is really going on in their loop to do some simple experimentation. :D
Dude... and you complain about the Aquaero being expensive? That BigNG thing is a $100 and doesn't even come with a LCD or a way to easily mount in your box due to it's odd shape.Quote:

afireinside,
I could not believe it either, but it is certainly true. Ran the flow test many times and the results were the same.
I was only going to add the NB/SB blocks at first to the GPU and CPU blocks and run the flow test.
However, once I got everything out and undone, I did not want to redo that again for awhile and added the two MOSFET blocks since they must mount from the bottom of the MB. I hate that design.
My temps did not change but a degree or two if I remember correctly. I think it may be in my post somewhere. All four of the blocks added were low restriction type. :shrug: I think the storm and EK FC block grabbed all the flow and everything else just did not matter that much.
Seeing is believing for me though.
good news for us then :D
Seriously stop trying to post on all threads about AC products. We get enough of that crap from you already. It's obvious that you'll dig a thread up just for the sake of pimping AC's name.Quote:

LCD's great for the bling but it offers little use. Sorta like most AC products.
i wonder what your results would be if you replaced that storm with a fusion...
Just curious, are your barbs 3/8" or 1/2"? I know your tubing is 3/8"
Edit: ahhh thread revival
His barbs are 1/2" and his tubing is 3/8". I just did a similar build with the new Primoflex LRT. It's a nightmare to get on, but it'll NEVER leak and the bend radius of the new stuff is even better than the old stuff.
Correct, 1/2" barbs and no leaks.
I thought 7/16 over 1/2 was a nightmare enough, I have it somewhat mastered now. It is much tougher on plastic barbs than metal ones.Quote:

I need the silver for a build I'm making :)
Yes, I take a glass of water, put it in the microwave for two minutes just when the boiling bubbles appear. I then dip one end of the hose in it for about 10 seconds and push it onto the barb. I then cut the right length of tubing and then repeat with the other end.Quote:
