I am going to stickie this thread as it has some very good ideas put forth by ocme for insulation of water blocks and motherboard.
Thanks Chilly1...
Just in case anyone noticed this is for sale in the classifieds
I'm surprised its still there for sale
Most people just dont have the money sitting around to buy it I guess.. its a good chiller.
I know, chily1 makes some great stuff. (and the finish looks great)
yeah he did a nice job.. I wouldnt mind buying a window applique or something with the xs logo.
WE are in the process of a redesign of the logo.. And we may come out with logo gear if everyone is interested....
yeah, like something that you can put on the side of your case like on liquidfrostbyte.
I have a question OCme,
I am also insulating a white water, Can you please tell me how to mount the cpu block,
You have the bolt that go's tru the white water, under the block you have a nut, where do i have to place the rest of the nuts? and the nylon rings etc?
Where are the OC results and final temperatures?
I got away from benching for the time being... I burned up my @ the time $500.00 9800XTvideo card so I pulled the chiller off and went to water cooling. I have a 2.8GHz prescott running @ 3.7GHz & I am happy with that...
Cool :hehe:Quote:

Just a quick question...isn't a 2gal resevoir a bit on the big side? Wouldn't it be more efficient with something more like 1-2 liters?
Also, what is the more efficient heat exchanger:
Tube in Tube?
Tube in Shell?
Plate?
I think tube in tube (eg 3.8" inside 1/2") is more efficient than tube in shell.
First, I'm the owner of LiquidFrostbyte.
And the difference between a bigger or smaller res is just the time it will take to get to the desired temp, once it is there, it will be able to handle a bigger heat load for longer....
skate is right a bigger rez means that it will take longer to pull down. It will give you a longer time to "overdrive" the system like run it over its real capacity by pumpint the liquid fron the rez into the HX and then to the computer. it is already cole and then it will get cooled a little more. And it will give you a buffer to play with for those high power benches.
man that is awesome 0.0
ohhh, the thread necroism! this thread's only about 9 months dead.
lol i seem to have a problem doing that lol
This thing is awesome anyways :P.... Although I dont own it anymore...
yep it lives with me now and has been modded to drop coil. details of it's continued existence can be found hereQuote:

The spray foam maybe partly soluble in hot alcohol.... It could be the cause of some of the cavitation of the spray foam.
