What are you using to get the red color in your water? I'm using red food coloring for mine but I'm not sure if its a good idea.
Budy is using Food Color too![]()
I dont see how food coloring could/would hurt flow...maybe I am wrong...*-)

i think this is not a good design cause with the very wide area for water to run in and the very small opening i guess most of the water will run @ the middle of the block while the rest @ the sides will be much slower
Soon to be :
ASUS P8P67 Deluxe, Intel SB i7-2600k, G.Skill Rj-X F3-12800CL6D-4GBXH, MSI HD6950 2GB, Corsair 750AX, Intel 80GB G2 SSD, DELL U2410
Used to be: SaFrOuT
While it looks very well made, I think the pins are just too thick to properly dissipate the heat quickly enough.
Here is some of my p180. This is what I had to work with. I have replaced the noctuas with YL's and I just ordered a MCR320 to replace the two radiators.

Well, check this out. Take, let's say, about 1 Gal of distilled water, pour some of all the dyes + some G11\Zerex + some PT_Nuke you see in the pics above and you get a freaking UV Brown coolant flowing in your tubing! Now thats Xtreme! ROFL!![]()
Nah but seriously, i want to make sure i had the choice of color when i would have made my choiceYou know just in case...
Still, is nothing compared to Mr. H20 that, a few months ago, got some Xtra C2Ds mobos just in case...LOL Anybody know what the heck im talking about ?![]()

well, the 320 should keep it fine... at least i think![]()
My Rig X6 1055T|Crosshair IV Formula|8600GT|2x2024MB@1800|436GB storage
That's right Madam the 320 will cool both no problem. Trike where u puttin the triple?
I Decided not to cool the gpu with this setup as the radiators are already heatsoaking. My idle temps right now are pretty bad. 36C. Vcore is set at 1.5 i'm only at 3.3 stable right now. This is on a lapped Xeon 3060. Kinda dissapointed with the results. I can run 3.6 no problem and orthos no problem, but once I start rendering some video, the video ends up with artifacts. took me a while to figure out it was the overclock. I was hoping i could hit 3.8, but seems unlikely.
Now i'm going to mount the MCR320 on the back with a rad box. Figured this would be the best bang for the buck upgrade. more surface area and reduce the pressure drop by getting rid of the two radiators.
I'm still debating if i want to cool the 1950xt. I don't know if i'm going to upgrade the vid card soon. I guess the MCW60 is fairly compatible with both nvidia and ati.
With the GPU added into the loop, how much higher will the temps be? Would I get better results if i just left the gpu out?
I'm not really overclocking the vidcard right now, but there's still alot of heat coming off of the hs/fan.
