Hello everyone. I have been a long long time lurker on here. But, have never posted. Here is my latest watercooled system:

I have a access to a paint shop so I painted the case. However, I have recently acquired a Soldam Windy case that I am going to transfer my system to. I may have to lose the dual loop setup and maybe even just watercool the cpu, leaving the gpu to air.
ooh nice pic evil-98. lots of copper and black. love it!
@Jamestuk: thanks :)
@Boogerlad: nope just a regular 1/2" elbow martin used 5/8" i asked him about those elbows and he says that they wont hurt flow a bit
evil-98, are you sure your not a female? You sure tease like one. :mad:
I sense a bit of resentment. Sorry, it's just that I seem to find a lot of women that are "just having some fun" just to see what they can reel in. Sometimes I feel like a Bass or Trout cause I've been tossed back in so many times.:ROTF: :rolleyes:
Is that you in your avatar, if so, you have amazing eyes and a very nice smile.
sorry mate, school is in full effect and works got me tied up for 9 hours a day. ill have the work log up in a few days. i really wish i could just spend a full day on the build but i only get a few hours here and there :(
hows your build going along?
Thanks for the warm welcome!
Thanks man and I am loving your MM UFO! I have always been a sucker for chrome on black.
The Lexa is not water cooling friendly at all but I was due to change my fluid anyway and I was up in the air as to which case to get so I made it work.
I have been looking at that Cosmos S but I hear NZXT is coming out with a new full tower that will accommodate a 220mm radiator and from what I hear it will be around the $100 price point. So it will be interesting to see what the options will be in the coming months.
I know everyone has done the green coolant to death but when I was ordering a parts no one had any of that spiffy red Feser one in stock, so I busted out the trusty $3 of Hydrx, after all the last bottle lasted me a full year with out issues.
One thing I did learn was how nice those metal 1/2" barbs are, I ordered a set for my NB block to match the D-Tek and man are they allot easier to push on 7/16" tubing, even though I soften the ends in hot water those stupid plastic Swiftech barbs just plain suck.
Question on the the tubing guys, does the Tygon stay clear over time? I noticed using the Swiftech Hydrx my Masterkleer tubing turns cloudy after a few months.
@nerosachf - Can you post another pic with the side off so we can see the insides better? :welcome: to XS!
Sorry :) .. My build is all apart now for the time being. But I found this pic that shows the setup inside. I also had moved the 120.1 rad up to the top which worked much better.

Also, these are a couple older water rigs of mine:

Evil: NO MORE TEASES! Post the whole thing if your going to, or don't post at all! Your killin' me man!:D :rofl:
Evil, that looks so slick. Love all the copper! Give us more pics :D
@nerosachf - Do you still have two loops? Two loops aren't needed for only the CPU and one graphics card. You could make it look a lot better if you only had the one loop for the CPU and the graphics card.
I have ditched the dual loops... and the case for that matter, selling it currently. I was able to get a Soldam Windy black aluminum case that is smaller and a bit more elegant I think. I have also updated my vid card from the 8800gtx to a 3870x2 (want to eventually do crossfirex). I have also sold off/traded most of the 2nd loop parts.
My new setup will be just one loop. I have not decided yet if I will do the 3870x2 and CPU or just the CPU. I am going for looks on this build and it depends what I can fit into the case neatly.
