Any adults in the room? Geesh... this needs fixed.

Hi, Churchy. It was a Dremel 8200 (12v battery-operated). It just died.

So, I bought the 4000 (120v), which should not have such sensitive electronics inside. We will see...

OK, I'm coming out of my funk. Until today, I've had absolutely *zero* motivation to work on my build. I regret the inactivity in the meantime.

My Dremel puked, probably from ingesting metal...

Without a doubt: the PSU ends where the rails end. Plenty of room for the modular cabling.

This is why I performed the PSU extension in the first place.

Cutting heatsinks to fit together on EK Dual DDC Top v2 (ie. like Swiftech *should* have made them!). :dammit:

It's amazing how well the heatsinks transmit the heat of my Dremel's cutting wheel...

Right, like the obviously-named "PWM" connectors. Yes, I'm still ticked about that one.

I've been busy working on the pump assembly. I purchased two MCP-35X pumps, an EK DDC Dual Top v2, and heatsinks (both pumps and heatsinks from Swiftech).

First, I closely examined the EK top,...

I'd be happy to PM you with my mailing address; this *should* have worked out of the box. Exactly *which* PWM standard did Aqua Computer target? :shrug: Furthermore, are you saying that fan...

Oh, nice!!! Shoggy has retracted his previous statement that the PWM channels on the Aquero 5 can control MCP35X pumps! :eek: :shakes:

What the heck? I spent $200 based on this. Grrrrrrrrrr......

:sick: WHAT!?!?! :mad:

I just purchased and received 2 MCP35X pumps and an A5 *yesterday* to do this! Again, W-H-A-T-!-?-!-?-! Grrrrrrrrrr... :cussing:

*So* excited! Sidewinder *finally* (ahem, Shoggy) received more A5 Pro stock. I *immediately* ordered mine, plus the black faceplate, 3-way LED, flow meter, in-line temp sensor, IR remote, and...

@Churchy: I understand about channel 4, but I want RPM for each MCP-35X. Sharing RPM connector would not give accurate RPM readings (eg. could double reading!).

I also would never consider...

Still confused, Shoggy. Why would an MCP-35X on a PWM connector "not start?"

I want to control 2 MCP-35X pumps, one on each PWM connector. I would then use fan channels 1 and 2 for RPM. Is this...

So, from the looks of it, not everyone has thought a lot about the effects of having loose aluminum or steel dust inside their case, how to remove it, how to be relatively certain that the risk has...

Recognizing that there are those who would prefer that a pump never contribute heat to a loop, there are also folks that would prefer to use the cooling loop for its intended purpose, foregoing a C...

That's interesting. This would be a great way to keep something like an Aquaero 5 running for several minutes after system shutdown, to gracefully bring your system down to ambient.

I don't have...

Geez, if it were anyone else, I'd wonder how they accomplished both of those feats!

But because it's you, 'nuff said! :poke:

Goal: Install a ThermoChill TA120.3 rad into the bottom of the 800D case

Components:

Goal: Improve air flow from bottom compartment to top compartment (ie. exhaust section)

Components:
- Gentle Typhoon AP-15 Fans (qty: 2)

Approach:
- apply a 240 template to the mid-plate...

I am referring to the 1-8 sensor channels, not the fan channels. Can the sensor channels be used to monitor RPM, too, or just temp sensors?

:poke: This would be a handy feature, if you could do...

If at all possible, I would like to avoid having to bend the tubing over to the top of the tube res (also aesthetics). The 2nd fan position is perfectly aligned over the res, and because this is a...

Yeah, that's a toughy: I definitely want the 480's barbs to hang down at the rear, so I had to leave room for that end of the radiator. So, I pushed the rad as far forward as possible, while still...
