That's a very sweet piece. Let us know some of the details of construction. I want something like that.
Will it fit 1/2" barbs?
Edit: I thought I had posted on this earlier. Thought I was going crazy.
Could you do me a favor and measure the distance from the front of your MB tray to the inside front of your case? I want to get a U2 Opti 1203 and I am curious if I can fit a rad setup like yours (shrouds, fans, rad).
sexy.
what size barbs are those?
nice... they look 1/2"
Well from the profile view they look like the same barbs on the MCP655 pump.
That thing looks great and I wish some company would produce a carbon copy of that, with the same material and everything. I would buy one without asking for the price.
Nice work.

Actually delrin is better here, because metal's thermal expansion would make the acrylic crack.
Sorry about not posting more info, I did but then Fugger messed with the server again and it ate my post
@Coroner Kyle - you are better off calling MM and speaking to Ben, he can give you measurements, it will be sometime before I could get them to you.
@k0nsl - I should be getting firm pricing from my machinist tomorrow or the next day. These can be churned out quickly if there is enough interest.
@KaptCrunch - lol, if you think that a res dissipates much heat...

Kapt, while your right that a copper res will disipate more heat than a Delrin res, Niksub1 isnt exactly hurting for cooling. With 6 CoolerMaster Al Fans on his PA120.3 ( with shrouds IIRC), adding a copper res isnt exactly gonna do wonders for his temps. A considerably lighter delrin res would make more sense.
That is GOOD news! I really hope more people will become interested so that we could buy this res. Its just so fine.

I wish i had 2 spare slots to put it, but theyre reserved for a matrix orbital 4x20 PLED when it comes out :<
Wouldn't that mean you would drop the metal one first b/c it will transfer the heat to your hand quicker?
Put me down for one Nik, my new supercooled case could use this.
Formerly XIP, now just P.
True, but then the opposite is also true. If case air is say 5C above ambient (not uncommon) then the metal res would heat the water more quickly, as the metal (copper, al whatever) is 5c hotter than ambient. In this case, the delrin would be preferred as it won't act as a heat conductor. Now if you want to install the res in a freezer, then yes metal would be much preferred. FWIW, I have a brass res that is the same size which weighs nearly 4 lbs. This one weighs maybe 8oz. I'll weigh it when I get to my office.
On a side note, I need a line of some barbs. eddy_EK has some G 1/4" barbs that are o-ring sealed as well, but dealing with him is a pain. If anyone has any ideas, give me a shout.

but how often is case ambient higher than the water temp?
water temp vs. ambient temp of what the res is located in is what will be worth worrying about.

Exactly, it is not worth worrying about. There are cases where the case air would and could be hotter than the water temp...

In your opinion nikhsub is a machinist really needed for this? I would imagine a high quality drill press and some bits could do the job fine.
