Any Comment on both X-Changer and 120.3?
i wouldn't comment on thermochill killers until i see perf results sounds like alot of hype tbh
I am looking forward for a review comparing thermochills vs. the x-changer...
if you find any, kindly share it here... Thanks!

Just finished modding a Stacker 830 SE, was kindda hard as the emplacement for the rad couldn't be used due to the PWM heatsinks on the mobo... So I had to move everything as far as possible to the left side... bundled with the too many connectors on the PC Power Cooling PSU which are impossible to hide lol... this was a pain in the butt to accomplish... really thought these cases were bigger...

Lee what size tubing are you currently using?
3/8 it was, my friend thought it was 8/10mm so I bought some new tubing, though when I tried to fit them it was a no go and had to reuse the old ones... pretty cool temp on the Qx at 4ghz around 35°C idle and topping at 57°C under small FFT's ( all coretemps due to Vista )... gonna clean my Thermochill triple rad and use these 3/8's too instead of my thinner tubing...
Couldn't you mount the rad on the underside of the case so that just the fans are on the inside? This is what I'm looking to do with mine (will need the wheels fitted though)
It's still running hard man! I never had a comp running so well for so long :rofl:Quote:

a (so i hope) better pic :)

That's an option Nf, but the Swiftech rad is already pretty thick, if you have a thermochill that's even thicker. Me and Nilos transport their pc's regularly to LAN's so a rad on the bottom could be easily damaged... I prefer it to have on the inside as the tubing is also easier to do...Quote:
Originally Posted by NuckinFutz77
If you look closely the rad is only mounted via 2 screws on Acryl plates...pump also rests on a foam (for vibrations) so the complete setup is pretty easily removable... but a rad on the outside would have made the installation way easier....
I'm looking for a Cosmos S modded case, as I think I can put my Thermochill triple rad on the top of the case... but haven't seem many mods on that case ( yet )
Like I said before the Stacker is huge though once you put in 4 Hd's and 2 optical drives things can get stuffed, and without a modular PSU things get pretty messy on top...
Does the Aurora have adequate room on the front for fan controllers?Quote:

Out of interest, why would you external mount a radiator in a mozart tx ?
the mozart chassi are so sexy :up:
here are some updates after a pump failure

don't like the color of your otherwise awesome-looking case
+1 for finding a VAIO desktop case, they weren't too popularQuote:

Here's my secondary rig hooked up to my 42" 1080p Westy.
Systems specs:
LL a05 [blowholes up top - needs the airflow in this case]
Cosair 620w
q6600 (b3) [32 idle]
Evga 750i FTW
Swiftech h20-120 Compact
2 x 1gb Dominators 8500 or 2 x 2gb Mushkin 6400, depending on the day
Evga 8800 GTX
HDs: 250 [XP + Vista Ultimate] / 300gb [apps] / 750 [data + media]
Dvico HD tv tuner
Creative x-fi Audio
LG Blu-Ray/HD-DVD player
Plextor DVD-RW
SilenX fans
nb fan has an Antec Stealth on it instead of the leaf blower stock one. If you own this wonderful board, a better fan is a must! Yes, my Dominator fan is missing 6 screws - I just did a diagonal pattern after stripping 2 of them modding the fan. I put in 3 Mini Kazes, and there is a big difference in dBa - another suggestion worth thinking about.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...5/IMG_0229.jpg
what are your temps and what coolant is that?
I think thats the swiftech Hydro-X mixed with distilled water (Just like mine!) :)
Yeah, its a Swiftech H20-120 Compact. Quite a nifty kit for the small case even though I usually go with discrete parts in most of my rigs. This makes for a clean build, which again, is great for a small case and for optimization of space/value/performance. I use Swiftech Hydro-X in this with a mixture of Fluid-XP+ [clear].
Edit: its around 32 idle/53 load
WOW some great looking rigs, got some great ideas for some upgrades. Here is my Mountain Mods UFO Horizon case. It's been through a few biulds but I luv the dam thing, it's been a great case, an so easy to work on with the horizonal Mobo tray.
Why is your reservoir external? Other than that, it looks good :up:
I would think that it makes for easier fill-ups and less chance of leakage into the computer case ... I like the idea of external reservoirs ... :)Quote:

nice build!
Thanks ya all, I wish my wife liked it as much.....LOL I found out in other rigs I had that the more fluid you have the slower heat soak becomes an issue and there outside the warmth inside the case, so at the time those were the largest resevoir availible (250cc) and yes it very easy to fill and work on. and they would not fit in case anyways, I ran out of room...LOL each loop holds over 32oz of fluid. I also included a night shot.Quote:

The barbs look really nice too, with 1/2 i think they could slide on very easy
This will sound wierd lol, but I sometimes use a waterbased lubricant (yer laugh all you want guys)Quote:

Vaseline. The solution to many of life's problems.
used astroglide all the damn time getting tubing over my d4, that was always harder than it ever should be. just don't tell my ex that she always was wondering why the bottle moved aroundQuote:
