[Work Log] Lian-Li PC-101A + DFI + Water [56k Warning]

clocks are in sig,

IDLE: CPU-28C, NB-30C, GPU1-30C, GPU2-30C
LOAD: CPU-42C, NB-34C, GPU1-36C, GPU2-38C


It's very nice, I love my comp, dual loops ftw

Nice GPU Temps!

Did you change the fan direction when you retooled it? Next time try to use an electric Jigsaw for the side panels. You just have to make sure to tape off the sidepanel real well, cut in with a rotary tool or large drill bit and start going. File down the edges and you can make it look clean even without u-channel.

Noticed you went through 3 different Corsair power supplies heh.

this is 1/8" ALU its twice as thick as every other side panel in the world, it eats cutting wheels and cant be cut with a jigsaw. I'm gonna buy another panel and cut it at the machine shop once im back at college in a week

Well done with the pc building looke pretty tidy!

I have just looked at your temps on the 4GHZ CPU how did you get your Q9650 that cold on load when myne hits 55 C @3.47Ghz with thermochill rad and higher flow rates from my large pump? I MUST be doing something wrong?

what size / type of braiding on what size / type of tubing is that?

Looks sweet

IDK, i have always got incredible temps from my setup, i think the its the combo of 3/8" tube and a DD 3/8 barb (small inner bore) of the d-tek fuzion v1.

I don't expect to upgrade to a new cpu block any time soon. what are you using to measure your temps????

techflex 1/2" and some 3/8inch braid (ran out of half)


thought I posted these but I guess not, this is most recent update to the rig, a little rearranging and I sleeved the cpu loop

took out some harddrives, put in a velociraptor, now it's 1x Velociraptor and 1x500gb storage

is it 1/2" Inner diameter tubing or 7/16" ? what brand? (just trying to get an idea of what size tubing your using to get such a tight fit on the techflex cable sleeving :))

im assuming it's 7/16" ID as your not using clamps..

its 3/8" id 5/8" od and i am using clamps.... zip ties ftw

Looking good, what did you use to stick the reservoir metal brackets on to the thin vertical edge of the 5.25 bay? How much better were your idle/load temps from moving the radiator externally vs internal?

long L bracket included with the res, bolted to some spare mounting holes on the bay side
