If the resistance get too high for my pump I just run the pipes in paralelle, some soldering and = everthing OK! :)Quote:

ArcticOC,
Are you going to make a chimney setup? Its frame sure makes it look like it was meant for one.
That is quite correct, your a smart mthrfc*r ;) (pulp fiction qoute)Quote:

Did you decide to go with the Laing DDC I linked you to, or did you stick with the Eheim?
Only Eheim is sold here in norway :(Quote:

and i dont doubt your soldering skills at all, ive seen your aircooled rig.
that thing is a work of passive cooling artQuote:

The reasons it is a poor choice are outlined by other users so I wont waste my/your time re-writing them, but suffice to say you'd be better off with something else.
The all copper Koyo radiator that Zenjirou is using is one possible option taht would cool considerably better, although I'd have to disagree with Zenjirou opinion on an Iwaki being needed for any watercooling use. A DDC would work ok, just so long as you had a low flow optimized waterblock and werent looking for very good temps.
If kept indoors, Fan pushing air from bottom radiator through fins exhaust out of top might give good performance
If kept outside for cold Air chilld liquid... that would be amazing

Go for it man. And post pics...
This shall be very interesting. Can't wait for more pics! :D
Hows this comming along. Any results on this yet? :)
Big!
I think that rad would be a good passive rad if you ran the the pipes in paralelle. Then it would have about the same design as this passive rad.
You could buy a regular DDC from microplex.no but I think you need something with more head like the DDC+ and you can't get one of those in Norway nor Sweden. You probably want a top mounted inlet barb to increase flow. Modding the standard top is one alternative, or you could buy a plexi top from Alphacool or Radiical which are built for it. Here's a test of the DDC, DDC+ and DDC+ with alphacools plexi top. The Radiical top probably performs even better than alphacools since it's got larger channels but I haven't seen any tests and I don't know where to get them except radiicals webshop in Australia. If you wan't to go extreme you could get 2x DDC+. Watercool.de makes a dual DDC plexi top but it's not suitable for DDC+ since they need lots of water at the inlet. Radical_53 is developing a high performance dual DDC+ top (for alphacool?) but you can't buy it yet.Quote:

Here's a list of some DDC+ resellers in Europe:
- Alphacool - Germany
- Over-Clock.co.uk - United kingdom
- Vcore.dk - Denmark
bare så du vet det, mcp350 er det samme som DDC!
Well, thing have been kinda slow from my part lately, but at last I have started on the project.. :)
I have just started to work for a cooling company and the pumps we use for waterborn heat in houses easely let you run trough curcuits of 180meters or more. We only use danfoss pumps and they are amazingly quiet, easely beating eheim and others recomended in this forum in therms of noise;) The 180m statement in my replay is only @10mm inner Ø.. The only way to tell the pump is running is to take a skrewdriver and place it so it blocks the ear and let the end toutch the pump.. even then you have problems hearing the pump:banana:Quote:

awesome triple post :P
no worries, i do it all the time with multiple quotes :D
any linkly on that danfoss pump specs/prices?
whoa. and what wattage is it on that danfoss pump? guessing pretty high...
The coil you listed is either an evaporator or a condenser coil. Neither was ever designed for water cooling. Both also require very high cfm fans to accomplish their assigned task along with the fact they have refrigerant pumped through them at med/high pressures to allow change of state.
If you use a home heating pump such as the Danfos you spoke of it is designed for use with 3/4" id piping over considerable lengths. Also what is the heat dump from that pump?
If silence is what you are after why not use a PA120.3 with an Iwaki RD-20 pump and (6) Yate Loons undervolted in a push/pull configuration using two shrouds? Or dual PA120.3s?
