TEC n00b

Thanks for clearing that up! If IT was 780W, I don't see ANY WC solutions that can dissipate that amount of heat.

As for that, my old bong cooler took on x850xt + 437watt tec, northwood 3.4EE @ 4.995 + 437watt tec, all while keeping a very near ambient water temperature

Ya well thats a bong. A good sized one can cool like what, 2000W? Oh and sorry, a 320W tec might be either a tec that takes up 320W or pumps 320W, so it depends. Expect over 500W of heat though.

nol was pointing out that there is a water solution that can handle that much heat.

Great, looks like I'll be doing a CPU-only loop, not thew CPU+GPU+TEC that I had originally planned. Thanks guys!

WOW, ppl always tell me when I start talking about pcs im speaking spanish, after reading through this whole thing, i can honestly say I know what there talking about now..

thanks guys for making me feel stoopid.

So I cant cool a 320W Tec with my Tuniq tower?

Last rendition:



Delrin hose separators/dividers (borrowed idea from Captain Slug off of bit-tech):





Black 1/2" Tygon that's going into my build: http://sidewindercomputers.com/ty1idx3odlat.html



Decided to replace GPU waterblock with a Thermalright HR-03 (as soon as the 8800GTS/GTX version/revision comes out).

I'm answering yours with another question, does it have a 50mm base? :P

[m0da]

That black tygon looks veryyyy nice!

only drawback would be not being able to see what's inside for monitoring purposes.

[Praxis1452]

but black tygon pretty much prevents algae as well iirc

[serialk11r]

hmmm... correct me if i'm wrong but that black tygon, does it say "polyethylene" on it?

[cyberspyder]

@serialk11r: He used a different type of tubing, whereas I'll use Tygon.

@m0da: I have a somewhat transparent reservoir (Alphacool Repack), so monitoring the fluid won't be too difficult.

looks really good cyberspyder

[cyberspyder]

Thanks! You know, XS guys are friendlier than the ppl over at OC.net.

[littleowl]

that is why I don't go over there too often.. I can tell you several I don't go to because of that

[L33T]

Wow dang that black tubing does look nice ^__^
(But I still like blood streaming through my tubes better) ^__-

Yea I used to be at XFN and [H]|F... but this is a much cooler crowd
