[Serpentarius]

There was in an anime back in the 90's by the name of Martian Successor Nadesico with the Nadesico as the flagship space battleship. (Nadesico is just the english bastardization of the japanese spelling).

I highly doubt he is referring to the flower. There are of course, many other animes that reference the word.

I named my server after the supercomputer on the Nadesico, Omoikane.

Daijirin (3rd ed., 2006) defines it: "1 ナデシコの別名。2 日本女性の清楚な美しさをほめていう語。", "1. another name for Dianthus superbus. 2. A figure of speech for the beauty of Japanese women who are neat and tidy."

That last part didn't work out too well huh ?

Irony for ya...
3 loops tho, 6 pumps.. u cant pull that off without being neat tho.

Gah Bay res.... vs tube res..

Bleeding on my super weapon... 15 seconds... no joke.
u see all the water force all the bubbles out, and u see my res drop like a mofo.

Bay res...



2/3 loops are purged tho.. i only got 1 more left.. and then full on cable routing.

Lets say i went though an entire roll of paper towels at the moment.

Bay res...

Ye, it's something that always surprised me. I'm using a 250mm res at the top of my loop, so it's basically bled in a minute or so (you also have the advantage of more pump power). Then I see people complain that bleeding takes days, which truely suprises me . I guess I'll stick with my tube res !

[defect9]

*snort*

1. another name for Dianthus superbus.

[NaeKuh]

So filling my loops.

Note i am not anywhere near done. I still need to sleeve, howeve i wanted to have my loops bleed to see if i would run into problems.


Looks like this in the front side:


1/2 Bay Res's fully bleed..



Sigh... now i need to go fight the other one...
The Bay Res's are nice.. and they are convient, but... they are a PAIN IN THE BUTT to get setup right.
Once setup, they work flawlessly... even restarts... and if i remove a gpu, in bleeding a tiny bubble out.

When PURGEING your system for the first time.... man... if i had to pick between a tube cyclone, or a bay bleed.
In all honestly, tube cyclone wins 50x over.

[NaeKuh]

Loop 3 is in the process of being purged as i type this:

This is the loop layout i am gonna go with:


I accidentally pulled that clear line in front of the red line.. im gonna have to go pull it out via QDC and move it outside.

The third unit is located right in front of the botttom right fan.

And the Top Chamber... why does it look dirty in my pictures??!??!

[Utnorris]

Epic build. So far nice job. Can't wait to see the final product.

[NaeKuh]

lol ... 580 died..

i have no idea how..

it was sitting in a static bag..
Didnt leak any coolant on it.

When i go to turn the system on, says video card missing..

Go install the other 580, its working fine. >.<

Blah!

Needed to order some parts anyhow.. like cable sleeving and other what nots...
Man... i still got a LONG LONG way to go to finish this build..

Why did i rebuild?? couldnt i just live happily in my dusty infested corner?

[MagisD]

The dust people migrated from the case to the 580 ?

no the magic dust bunnies which powered the gpu is no longer there.

So thats why the card isnt detecting..

Anyhow i think im gonna need to start my Advance RMA on the card.
Thank God i got one.


On another note.. im liking this 2600K.. lol.. its not a bad system at all.

[NaeKuh]

MMMM... i put tubing over the melvin tube... lol..


what do you guys think?

[ScottALot]

You tried putting the GPU in another PCI slot, right? My Big Bang Xpower didn't detect my 460 until I put it in the 3rd slot... now it registers it in any slot.

Tried the 580 in 2 different systems.

Both systems cant detect the card.

Also it was giving me issues b4, and i remember telling vapor and skinnee about it.

I thought it was a cold bug.. but it looks like the cores are dead.

EVGA is sending out a replacement tomorrow.
Which is why i <3 eVGA.

[theseeker]

Get cha popcorn ready

[NaeKuh]

Get cha popcorn ready

might as well pull out a sleeping bag as well...

This is gonna be a long build..

im not in a hurry to complete it because the 2600k has been treating me very nicely.. lol..

I just placed an order at ppc for some vandal switches.

im gonna swap out my front buttons and led's to new ones.

[hoax]
