Hi all,
This is my first go at water cooling my 24/7 rig (last turned off 3 weeks ago)
In the bottom of this case:
PA120.3
PA120.2
D5
DCC2 (red impeller) w/petra top
EK res (forgotten what size)
5xSliverstone FN121
Tygon tubing
Cpu:E6400@3400 ~ 1.45
Temps:
ambient:19/20C
23/25 @ idle
40/41 @ load
48/49 @ TAT load
Im sticking this here instead of the gallery because a couple of peeps wanted to see this

Oh Jesus that's a lot of radiator.

Now that's a lot of cooling! Are you thinking of getting some gfx and chipset blocks next?
All for a CPU? I think you can push more on that OC. Nice btw regardless.

Overkill maybe? Either way, good job on getting all of that in there! Just might want to work on the wiring a little more... lol.

Ya I was thinking the same thing.Originally Posted by _G_

Also thinking the same thing, I bet if the 120.3 was removed, the temps wouldn't even budge more than 1-2C and the overclock would be exactly the same.
yep..

Is that the silver meshx panel on the side? I like the pattern.
Did you cut it yourself? If so, what did you use? Tempted to try it myself, but not sure if the tools I have are sufficient.
what about CABLE MANAGEMENT!!!11!!1oneone!*Waits for the cable management shouts

Thats awesome!! Excellent job!
For the record I am not sick, nor am I a gamer, nor am I a sick gamer. That name just sounds really cool to me but dont put me under that stereotype at all.
nevermind... addicted to COD4 and Free Online Games baby!
Wow, alot of nice equipment there, but no offence: It looks like crap!

wait are you mixing pumps on the same loop??
i see a DDC-2 and a D5.
You know your never suposed to mix pumps on the same loop right?

Its my fault.. and no im not sorry about it either.[12:37] skinnee: quit helping me procrastinate block reviews, you asshat. :p
[12:38] Naekuh: i love watching u get the firing squad on XS
Ya mixing different pumps is never the best idea.. just because one is going to push more through the loop as the other so the other one will be starved.
And the radiators... Major overkill for a single cpu loop..
And it would be even more impressive if you fit that all in there, AND made it look goodAnyone can cram a bunch of stuff in that space.. but to make it look good is another thing.
definitely cable management time...
but nice to fit both PAs down there. and nice panel design...
I am choking... that thing needs cable managing ASAP!
And, as others have said, it is a little bit overkill on the radiators, and the pump mixing isn't a very good idea.
But the pattern is nice, and great job fitting everything down there!

Thanks for the comments guys.
As for overkill, in my defence I tend to think of my upgrades as an investment (my last water cooling kit was installed on an old p2) and although its overkill now, maybe once we get 8 cores or maybe more, my hope this that it will be a bit more useful?
Cable management: yeah well no defence for that
Flames on the side: Id like to claim credit for that, but the fact is the side side panel I couldnt even get in the uk (just couldnt get the see through bit and the crossfire fan/mesh) so I purchased in from frozon-cpu then got it water cut but vadim computers.
Pumps: hmmm I did think that this might be a bit of a bad idea in series, but spaced out like they are? Anyway we will soon see

One pump is still going to restrict the other, always best to have identical or not at all.Pumps: hmmm I did think that this might be a bit of a bad idea in series, but spaced out like they are? Anyway we will soon see

Thats a lot of mess just for CPU cooling. Nice temps man.

ahh well nevermind
Long as it doesnt explode im good
Bah, you did a great job. We all live and learn for our next round. I suggest you use the PA120.3 to cool your SLI graphics cards somewhere down the road to really put it to use.ahh well nevermind
Long as it doesnt explode im good
Anyhow, great work in stuffing it all in there!

Looks alright, but mega overkill. A dual rad would be more than plenty to cool a cpu loop. I personally run a single 120mm rad on my opteron 170 which is clocked at 2.85GHz and temps are fine
that PSU cables looks slick!
what PSU are you using? is it a custom job?
and bout cables... well... i guess you know by now... LOL
