i haven't problems with the temp, because there is an 120mm fan in the front.
it cooles HDD's an the DDC.
Its just warm, but not to hot for overheat :D

Lol, I washed the FC8800 block 2 days ago and it's worse than this. Like you, I didn't clean the PA120.3 sufficienly.
To remove this dirt, you need to use vinegar with salt first to remove the tarnish and show the copper. After this, rinse with water and arm & hammer to neutralize the vinegar then rinse thoroughly.
Here is my pump. First time I have ever opened it :P

oh wtf
ouch town, population you bro. (yes i know corny dodgeball quote, but i feel it was necessary.)
Im guessing you only used distilled water then, no anti-bacteria or a corrosion inhibitor or anything?
I use distilled, PT Nuke, and green food coloring. This time I am not going to use food coloring.Quote:

Sometimes you can start wondering why thermochill won't clean the rads in factory. I mean, of course there are beginners out there that aren't aware of the dirtyness of these rads, which basically makes their loops doomed from the beginning. Also the rads are quite expensive, so I think you could expect a little bit better painjob and a rinse.
From what I hear they are considerably cheaper in the UK, and they sell them at a razor thin margin here in the US and other countries due to all of the import fees, etc.Quote:

Nice work dnb#
Similar to what i'm doing - http://coolercasesuk.co.uk/showthrea...2714#post42714
I'm putting a BIX 120.2 in the roof, and a BIS 120.2 in the floor, i'm still um'ing and ar'ing as to placement of the pump (same as sig) and the top for the pump - which is going to help the tubing look tidier etc etc.
Anyway good work mate

Lloyd
Heres what I got :)
PA120.3
DDC3.2 w/ Petras Top
Tygon R3400
Dtek Fuzion with quad nozzle
MCW30 on NB
3 Yate Loons on the Rad.
Gonna add some GPU Blocks, waiting on 3870X2 blocks to come out in the US :)
Reservoir placement is temporary, still working out the specifics of that.

I dont know? its like 2 3870's on 1 PCB... so figure it probably is hotter than an Ultra.Quote:

I think a MCR-320 would handle two of those GPUs. But you should keep it in a single loop if so... :)Quote:

rbsmontemor great photos and you PC its a dream. Im going yo put the MCW60 in my next 8800GTS 512 and now thanks to you I now how its going to look like ;)
You got stile ;) good job :D
Then PTS confirmed that my water cooling parts are packed and ready for shipping. :)
I am so excited, but it will still take 6 or more days before it arrives. :)
@funkflix
Very nice watercooled DFI, but I had this motherboard and hate it. I think it was DOA...never worked well :(
Thank you :)Quote:

Your "X48" is really a X48 chipset ?? :eek: i havn't seen any members of the public with them yet .. if thats a x48 can you give us some oc results ... seen a few but most are "SAMPLES" which are never really reliable stats..
I like Funkflix's pictures - watercooling :banana::banana::banana::banana: :) .
I don't know if it's X48 chipset. We all know that X48 is a handpicked X38...they are the same chip. I'll never know if it's X48 coz' it uses the X38 bios.Quote:

@ Funkflix, black rocks, but white rocks a thousand times harder! only a shame there aren't any good white hoses on the market. that sucks ass, I always wanted white tubing with black internals and glossy white exterior. :)
I see a couple of Nexxos at your system's guys...
How they perform..?
It's the best ;)
http://www.awardfabrik.de/k-hlung-wa...im-test-8.html
Yep, it's a great cooler. But maybe not the best overall. ;)

Hey, you can complain, I'm stuck with a 4MP camera with 200 max ISO. Just use a tripod and do some long exposure shots or get more light in.Quote:
