Water Cooled Case Gallery

[Gir92]

Swapped out my MasterKleer tubing and dye for pre colored Primoflex tubing + straight distilled and PT Nuke (no more clogged blocks from dyes for me!)

I also repainted my swifty rads and painted my Fuzion mount plate for lulz.









My boss making sure I don't screw anything up...

[Vatos_locos]

i made a little change in my rig :p
added on 4850 Moded and put some coil UV in the tubes of the loops

Sry for the GSM pictures My dad forgets always forget to take the camera home...

NOt sure they will fit due to the slight recess as the o-ring wont butt up against the res. but I'll have a go for you tonight if you want.

Might have to look into the Pro-Mount some more.

Sweet builds all!

Oh please do help me out on this one as I would hate to spend $20 on 2 compression fittings to find out they wont fit in the 250 res!

The Pro mount allows for better mounting pressure, which leads to better temps in most cases. When I bought my Enzotech Sapphire it didn't come with springs, so I got some from the hardware store and cut them to fit on the screws used to mount the block. Much, much more pressure.

Why do I keep seeing people NOT using them then?
I dont see the pro-mount been used that much by people in here, is there any reason why?

Cheers!

That Aqua Water, UV Blue. It looks pretty clear. Would that stuff still gunk up the radiator/blocks like most of the UV fluid? Plus anyway you can show us just how much that UV Blue clear liquid looks under the UV light?

I had the 250 res from eK, I returned it because it was too big for my case. I did see if my bitspower compression fittings would fit on them. The O-ring doesn't seem to contact enough due to the size of the actual compression fitting. Their isn't enough surface cut out (the flat space around the opening of the threads) to flush it enough. I was going to use the 1/2" OD by 3/8" ID fittings...

Thats what I thought, 1/2 seem pretty big for the V connectors. I guess I will use normal fittings then... thx for the info

Looks very nice
Wich fans have you used ?

Got the camera!
Here's my updated rig

RAWR nice builds. It's good to see that the HX520 can run all of that MorGo7h. I was sort of panicking that my HX620 would have a hard time running 6 fans + pump and pc but yeah . . . . . it will be good.

I love the corsair PSU ^^ I got a stable oc on my cpu 4Ghz (8*500) and 1000mhz ballistix. My HD3850 is running @ 850/1050 (I know bad card but... )

I can think of two reasons:

1) People who change blocks frequently for testing or other reasons may not because the quick mount is just as it sounds....quicker.

2) People haven't realized the correlation yet. I find a tighter block is less prone to have air bubbles in the TIM and just makes better contact.

Thx! Here a quick fotosession:

I'm curious is your LED's giving off the blueish tint to your tubes? Or do you have some blueish coolant? I love the look of a semi-clear/blue tint you have going on...

[3dchipset]

The top and bottom of the 250 can use the compression fittings. It's the (V) section you mention you want use that the compressiong fittings (at least the O-ring bitspower 1/2" OD) doesn't seem to fit well

Using Revoltec Dark Grey atm - its appearing blue because of the camera. inside the tube is normal dest-water and a bit corosion-protection like used in cars (bit blue/green colour - BASF Glysantin).

Guys, two real quick questions

1) Do you think Bitspower 1/2 compression fittings would fit on the EK 250 Reservoir? I planned on using the top connector for the fillport, the bottom connector for Bitspower temperature sensor and the V connectors for IN/OUT, but I just got the 250 Reservoir and the V connectors are pretty close together and Im not sure if 1/2 compression fittings would fit in there.

Nah i don't think they seal properly. I have the 250 res and BP 3/8in ID 5/8in OD and they don't quite go in. I've bought some G1/4 extenders so the barb clears the recession.

nice rig Bluto, I was thinking of mounting a Feser 480 like that and stick my triple rad in front, anyway you can show how you mounted your rad? did you just use L brackets?

[bluto]

Found some triangle shaped brackets in Home Depot(sorry ,don't know what you call them) and ran a threaded rod thru all 3 of 'em and cut up some aluminum tune inbetween for stability.The mount is a thermochill pa 120.2 shroud I had lying around. I never move my pc around so this works for me.

There's def something to be said for thicker tubing

[inCore]

Funny, I was just gonna say "Eww, fat tubing." I'd just use compression fittings.
