There should be just enough in this picture to tell what's going on in with my 8-port ;)

My res has a res! :eek:
I have had mine for over two months and all I can say is that I think it is great. With the top port it's pretty easy to bleed, about 10 minutes to get the air out of the pump and then I am good to go. No issues with leaks, but I will say I wish manufactures would quit putting a dip around the fitting hole. If it was flat there would be no need for different sized o-rings. Now I just need a 4 bay 5 1/4" one that holds two D5's and does two to 4 loops. C'mon Boxgods, you can do it. :D
On a side note, Box Gods, where is that new block you were talking about and the other stuff we talked about? I know "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas", but c'mon. :D
+1 ^^^^^^^
I love mine too. The non vario pump is a little loud, but I have a vario pump now and with do a better job mounting it this time. That should help with the noise.
So Vapor, the 8 ports are divided in the center then? So you can run dual parallel loops. :D
quick Q how does the "front" (i take it its literally on the front of the drive bay) fillort thing work? is it like a plug etc lean case back unscrew it fill etc etc or am i wrong?
Yep, set your case on its back and pop open the fillports, then fill. It really is easy, even easier if you have a spare PSU. You don't have to worry about the plug then.Quote:

ah ok sounds pretty easy :) probably will go for this just cos ease of use etc :)
Blocks are progressing. I know waiting sucks but getting it right is important to me. I am on the 4th version and still finding little way to improve performance--also looking at manufacturing as a performance metric as the ENTIRE process fascinates me. The new split window reservoir has gone gold and is in manufacturing now. There is a dual tank and single tank for those wanting to run true Dual loop setups. I think the SFF guys will especially like it as I made it as shallow as you can for a single bay reservoir. I will post images here first as soon as I get the OK.
Features:
HA. Not making THAT mistake again lol. TBA.
I got my T3 back yesterday, Brian is a breaze to work with. No issues at all what so ever now, starting a 24 hour leak test now.
Yes he is. Glad you got it replaced. :)Quote:

The res on the res allows me to go 3-4 block changes without adding any water at all :D
OIC, very cool :up:Quote:

DB is mad at Obama's Tax policies lol. I think the Nobel folks probably DID pick him too soon (9 months in office) but were maybe trying to empower him a bit to do some good with the remainder of his term. No matter your party affiliation we HAVE had pretty worthless presidents for almost 2 DECADES now ...
Pics of unreleased products got me in trouble the last time UT...not being a tease just don't want all the drama this go round is all.
I haven't forgotten, but I am still going to harass you until I see some pics. :rofl:Quote:

And DB...what happened to the no posting after the 4th jager rule? ;)

Positive thing though when this pump was running , I couldn't here a thing and was on setting 5 with swifttech pump

The scratch on the front is a molding imperfection. I just got a new batch of 1000 fronts in from China and even though they swore up and down they had polished it out...its STILL there. Not sure what Brian/Primochill is going to do but I am guessing ship the molds to a new company =( I know it doesn't show when filled but if nothing else I get tired of saying "yes we know it's there, not a problem" lol. (Meaning China not customers as obviously not everyone reads the forums and knows about it.)
As for your crack...no way you should epoxy or try to repair that. Start a RMA ticket and get it swapped out. They are also moving to nylon screws and will be including a metal case length and an acrylic case length that will also work better with those slide in rail type cases.
Short answer, do not repair, just RMA.
Did that one come with the 1/4" thick pump mounting plate or the newer 3/8" version? Curious which shop it came from...also, are you running that with just the one set of rails? I am not sure just one screw per side is really enough and the T3 might want to rotate since it is sort of like being on an axle with just one screw per side.
I can confirm that the crack in the front is not an actual crack.
When the res is filled it really does disappear.
I put a black T3 faceplate on and it is now fully gone.
Just like magic.
For me the molding imperfection was a tiny complaint on an amazing product.
ok boxgods trying for rma called frozen cpu , they said for faster service to call Brian at primochill, so hopefully he can help me out ... luckily i didn't epoxy.... just didn't want my main pc out another 2 weeks it good to hear they're changing out the screws for nylon ones , but I had to use 2 way tape cause of the position of the screws and yea one rail definitely lets it rotate a bit but once i put in the cdroms she locks in , the back piece is the 1/4 but it was pretty sturdy and held my swiftech pump great .... all and all this reservoir was a bit of a problem , but after i heard it running I was amazed at how well it worked , hopefully if I can get a another one Ill have my confidence back in it
