Hi guys,![]()
After visiting this forum for a long time, looking for an answers to my watercooling questions, I've finally, decided, to join in and show my rig, which, lets be honest, would be much harder to build if not this forum!
Thanks!

ah ddc tank top, harder to bleed air out, and vortex issue.
Thanks!
No, it's a second one!

Thanks man!
It's a deionized water with uv dye from here:

(orange) and nothing else.
All blocks are copper so no worries about corrosion.
I will post rig photos to stacker slacker "the best case ever!!!"

Thank you very much!
Radiators are 2 x Black Ice GT stealth 240 one at the front and one at the top of the case!

Open or closed, it doesn't make a difference. Once the water level in your reservoir drops low, the pump will start sucking in the air again and round it goes. You'll have to put a sponge in if you have that problem or keep it completely filled, which is near impossible.

NEvolution: if you could remove that tank top, much better for you.
btw are you planning to close your side panel? if so where would you route your tubing.
I plan on cutting one of the horizontal PCI supports so the tubing can go through the top PCI slot plus the extra space from the support.
So are you saying that I should remove the tank top and just use the Alphacool top?
Would I need to run a T-Line since I don't have a res/water tank anymore?

ah so don't forget to file/sand the edges or put some rubber edge trims/hole gromets so as not to damage tubing.
btw do you have some pics of your cpu block's inner workings?
This is the only pic that I know of that shows the insides.
Edit:
Would it be a good idea to move the inlet barb that goes into the water tank to go directly into the Alphacool Top? So as to reduce the turbulance/vortex. (While still keeping the water tank on as a reservoir.)
As in, moving it from the top position to the currently unoccupied location.

there would be no point in moving inlet while retaining top tank.
