As most people have said more water = more heat capacitance which basically means the water temp will take longer to reach an equilibrium, so in most cases (particularly in pc water loops) you wont...

You've got some nice numbers coming up there, I hope one day I'll be able to setup a beast like yours :D
Glad to hear its working out for you :up:
I would try a 25 turn 50+ohm trim pot, as this would give you a good range of temperatures while still giving you a fine adjustment at the values your wanting.
Something like this:...
From what I've seen memory controllers have diminishing returns after 1600Mhz, pair that with higher latency's and cost and your better off sticking with low latency 1600s unless you have nothing...
One word - Jealous!!!
Looking forward to seeing what sort of clocks/performance your gunna get when you get it all wet :D
P.S. I love seeing a big block of GPUs like that makes a computer look...
Glad I stumbled across this post, I had the same problem with a evga gtx460SC (I changed to a WB at the same time as updating drivers too! 266.58) had me pulling my hair out with frustration I was...
When the controllers off (and preferably probe unplugged/detached) attach a DMM or such to the probe, at different temps, if its a thermistor the resistance will change in the range of tens to...
As a few people have mentioned you do need to confirm the components that are in use, I would suggest it probably uses a thermistor as they are usually favored at the temp range you're looking at but...
This should work, if you use a trim pot in series (usually) with the thermistor you could adjust the temp to suit your needs, it would just be a matter if finding the right sized pot for your...
Theres some great work in this thread guys, congrats.
Every time I come here it makes me want to build one... Oh to have money again! :rolleyes:
Nice review martin great to see the numbers on those parts :)
+1 soooo much simpler I wish everyone would use it
Nice build pinto, very tidy :cool:
I have a couple of PDF's that might be of interest, the first is a comparison of r404a and r507, I'm not sure if I've read it yet and if I have I've forgotten the content so cant say how good the...
Build logs are great! They go here;

For getting the screws out sometimes a glob of glue on the end of the key can do the trick, insert the key into the screw head, let it dry and unscrew then crack the screw off the end of the key and...
I reckon at stock speeds you'll probably be able to get away with ether of them but if you have any inclination to overclock you'll want to go for a 2x120mm fan rad.
Ahhh, copper + aluminum, the stuff water cooling nightmares are made of, all thats missing is a pinch of salt :rolleyes:
I haven't used those before but if your sure the waters moving it would...
Personally I'd go for the top for no other reason then it looks allot more spacious judging by the pic making installation and maintenance simpler, perhaps even visually nicer coz it wouldn't look so...
@McBacker - Nice setup very clean looking. I'm curious about the cage over you memory though, is it some sort of EMF protection? If so have you noticed any difference with/without it?
I've been...
If you can identify the leak a healthy dab of silicone will get you up and running again and save you some $$$ if that is a concern :)
If you do though don't forget to make sure the areas nice and...
It's perfectly normal, it's due to the little things like air bubbles in the water, very small 'leaks' (I use that word loosely) at the seals and plastic absorption from the tubing, much like when...
Rad size sounds like the main issue 480's are beasts and 2 of them will dump alot of heat but other things to try would be;
-change the fans to push air through the rad (I'm a fan of the push...
You can get away with anti-corrosive additives but personally I'd never mix copper and aluminum in the same loop these days, even if the aluminum is anodized. Not since I had a nasty shock when I...
