Thank you very much Jedda. That helped. I still got a few bubbles in the Res but the dont harm my system, just make some sound sometimes^^ When i´m upgrading next i´ll get a new Res for sure, but whatever.
System is done now.
Temps are quite nice, especially for single loop.
Cpu: Idle: ~20-22C Load: ~27-29 (oced @ 3ghz @ 1,375Vcore)
Gpu: Idle: ~49C Load: 62C (oced @ 650/1500/1850)
NB: ~35C
Here is a pic, i´ll add some more later in the Case Gallery. Thanks to everyone who helped or inspired me and i hope you like my system :)

That is insanely nice. The Lian Li PC-A71 case works out really nice for water cooled setups. If I ever get around to buying a new case (I'm fairly happy with my Cooler Master RC-690), I can see myself getting that case and doing a fairly similar setup.
If you do a second loop, where are you thinking of putting the radiator for it? Mounted off the back fan mount with a radbox?

Good outcome! Nice work and temps to be happy about, imho.
Fantastic work and great temps man!!
Nice build! I've been wanting to see some water cooled builds with the A70 or A71. I would like to see some more pics if possible. One thing I'm interested in is figuring out how to get the cleanest wiring ... e.g. drilling holes in the motherboard tray, etc. Would appreciate any thoughts you have on this.
Very impressive temps, looks like alot of headroom for some more overclocking :up:
The radiator and res mount looks great, almost factory, very neat little setup you have there, good work :)
If you ever remove the rad grill again, you can hide the shiny saw cut edges in the top of your case by taking a black magic marker and "color" the edges. It will blend better with the black rad grill.
Was your original green tubes green Primoflex tubing? I have used blue, clear and red before, but never thought green would look as good as in your case.
If you mount it on the top end of the case with a Radbox, you could have some issues with connecting everthing on the Mobo outside if the Rad is bigger dann 1x120mm, but it should be no problem. Otherwise you should also be able to mount a 2x120 Rad in ther Front of the case if you move the movable HDD cage a bit.
Yes it was, but i changed it because it was so wide that i couldt mount some cable ties over the tube and i would had to cut the Ramsinks on my Card, otherwise i couldt mount the GPU cooler solid.Quote:

No Problem to drill some holes in the motherboard tray. theres enough space behind to hide the sleeves.Quote:

PS: If you want to know your maximum heat consumption on your Graphic Card you should play Crysis for a while^^ i´ve got about 63 after running 3dmark06 twotimes and about 72 after playing 8h crysis :> No change in CPU and NB Temperature but the Card is the last component so it´s getting a bit hotter after benching or gaming a long time
Actually, the rear 120mm fan is beside the motherboard, so mounting a Rad there might only cause problems for the PSU power cable (or maybe if you have dual monitors), and that's only if it's a 120.3, since the motherboard's I/O panel is off to the side. And if it does cause problems, you could always make a bracket that sicks out about 5-6 cm (say 2"), which should give it enough clearance for any cables.
Eller
That case still looks massive with all that kit inside!
I'm looking at this case or the g70 for myself and i think this might be the best choice.
I'd be using a pa120.3 up top and a pa120.2 at the front.
excellent work dude :)
Yea really a nice build. I have order one 71B to myself and i will use a Thermo PA120.3, d-tek cpu, D5 pump and swiftech micro res.
Thanks guys :)
I´m currently rebuiling my System, well i´m still waiting at my Ek 150ml Multioption Res. I already got some Blue Led Fans to replace the stock Lian Li Case Fans, some black noise-absorbent mat, my 8800 GT SSC, and 2x36Gb Raptors i´ve got quite cheap so i´ll give them a try :)
I also changed my E6600 into an E6750, that clocks much than my E6600 did (3ghz@1,52V :() but thats not something you will see^^.
Will post some pics at the end of the week and this time i´ll also post UV pics.. i totally forgot about them the first time :|
Regards
Wow!
I love your setup, it looks very clean :up:
Great job!!!
BTW, what size tubing are you using?
Get yourself a bigger monitor... looks great on 1920x1200 (no side scrolling)! :D
I love the look of that reservoir; however, make sure that you understand the implications of introducing aluminum into a copper loop. ;) That case works beautifully for a tidy layout. :clap:
Bla$nA :
Could you measure the distance between the mounting holes of the front intake fans.
I'd like to know if a PA120.2 would fit without having to drill extra holes in the frontside of the case.
Thinking about getting the A71 to replace my 4 year old PC71.
Nice setup BTW
Sry for no updates guys.. I wasn´t home yesterday..
@ Jupiler: Yes of course, i´ll do it later and post it then.
@ smee: 1/2" Masterkleer
@ zLynk: Thanks :) The Aluminium Aquatube Res is not connected to the Loop so no problems with mixing al/cu^^
@ Turbodream: Looking forward to see your A71B ;)
After my EK Res finally arrived after 2 Weeks of waiting i was able to finish my Loop again. My 8800GT SSC isn´t wc´ed this time because i hope the new GF9 is out soon and then i´ll change it with my 8800GT and watercool the new card again.
Some Pics of what i´ve done so far.
Currently bleeding out.

Got my case today to. I tried the thermo PA120.3 in the roof. Are u using a shroud between roof and rad or is it fans on both sides of the radiator ??
Bla$nA i was wondering if you could do something for me?
can you reproduce this picture from the lian-li site for me with your watercooling please?
http://www.lian-li.com/product/20071002180627.jpg
i'm just curious about how many bays the pa120.3 + fans takes up.
ta :)
Want to see that to :) Right now i´m just waiting for my last stuff to arrive like radgrill and gpu block. Then the big time modding is about to begin :)
Sorry to bring this up again, but can someone, who has this case, measure the distance between the mounting holes of the front intake fans?
Thx.
