You have a DD block and you think it'll suck? lol...

I gotta say the EK block is pretty good, keeps my 8800GTS 640mb @ 40 idle 44 load
I'm currently busy working my own case now, nothing special just a Lian Li PC71... PA120.3 comes within 2 weeks and then... pics

Cool! Look forward to see pics!

Yeah the block looks awful inside. When i opened it for cleaning, i found the design pretty weak ... and hooking back the o-ring in correct position to re-mount back the top was a pain in the *ss... Thats why im considering either the EK or hook back one of my MCW60 with maybe a Unisink.

The only MM build I like better than yours are my own Sweet job dude.

Glad to see u Canadians are good for something

Hah...(Sarcastic laughs)

BTW: I'm Quebecer before being Canadian! The Patriote name isn't there for nothing!

But yeah thanks for the kind of "kind words" LOL!

LOL... quite interesting to see this Quebec thing in something like a tech forum, it seemed so irrelevant when I was learning about it in class last month because Quebec is so damn far away

[coolrmaster]

Thanks I have a DD NV-88GTX WB. But i think it'll suck. So, i might get a EK or use one of my multiple MCW60s.

don't worry the only thing that sucks is stock air cooling

danger den blocks knocked down my temps 20 to 30C for the "inferno" 8800gtx sli, now idles about 25C over ambient

Danger Den make good stuff. People like to be hatahs but don't let that get you down. So maybe an EK will get u 2c diff and maybe not. DD stands behind their stuff and is constantly working to improve and redesign for improved performance while maintaining a reasonable price.

I'm going to have to disagree Darth. DD hasn't put out anything to compete in the CPU department that's competitive with the Swiftech or D-Tek blocks.

Their 8800 FC blocks were just horrible in QC. I ebayed mine after getting my hands on the EK's and seeing how drastic the difference in quality/craftsmanship. McCoffey had some pics posted of the how bad their blasting was. I also took offense to how they handled the fiasco of a run of their 8800FC's having microfracture leaks, toasting many systems. To my knowledge, of the 4 people that lost their systems, only 1 received replacement parts only after he threatened legal action.

DD was definitely a competitor back then, but now...in the words of Borat "ehh...not so much".

So here she is.


I used my flowmeter as jet, its performing two jobs, it protects my pc and improves block performance.


Another shot


The top plate I built. It also houses switches that control my pump flow (5v & 12v) lights, and the front musketeer.


Front.

nice work and piping.

but damn - you REALLY must have something against plastic tubing

[Mad_Man]

it must be pain to change vga or cpu

[mukmaster]

The Things you get from RMA (ya it's a p5b-Deluxe)




just completed and rewireing now !!!

[ranker]

So here she is.

The tubing reminds me of that old computer game where you gotta connect tubes and elbows together.

Once again, it's awesome to see one take that route and prove its possible. That sir is Xtreme!

my water cooled p180

[Patriote]

my water cooled p180

What a mess man... At least temps are where they should be ?

[Okda]

omg a single 120 rad for a cpu and vga

[Patriote]

omg a single 120 rad for a cpu and vga

I see a dual 120mm rad in the bottom under all the PSU's cables!

[Okda]

LOL
u sure have a sharp eye

[zhangmaster12]

lol, its quite a rats nest down there.

i caouldnt find anywhere else to put the cables, so i just shoved them there, it dont really matter though, because im getting a new case soon, a lian li pc-7b

temps are ok, gpu (stock) 35 idle , 50 full load, cpu (e6600 @3.6 ghz) 47 idle, 68 full load

[Patriote]

LOL
u sure have a sharp eye

Thats good news zhangmaster12!

[coolrmaster]

i'm a big fan of lian li but the pc-7b is a tad small for more than a single 120 rad internal

[zhangmaster12]

i think that a 120.2 will fit on the top of the case, im willing to sacrifice 2 drive bays if needed.

i think it has room, look at this http://www.systemcooling.com/lian_li_pc-7b-07.html
