So we talked about pro

[DarthBeavis]

But it begs the question: What is a n00b in terms of water-cooling? Let me show u

[SNiiPE_DoGG]

Beavis, flamebaiting this one isn't a good idea, your asking to get sent the same place R3 did and you dont want that.

keep the grudge to yourself and just sick him by getting his sponsors taken away by telling them the crap he pulls

[warriorpoet]

PC n00b since 86
H2o n00b since '06

Certain symmetry there, doncha' think?

To me n00b= someone who doesn't know it all and is willing to acknowledge it in order to learn.

Or just WC n00b = TT?

No, this is not about that other thread and anyone in particular. If you read that thread you see I mentioned myself as a noob before that other crap came up. If you guys want to go with the don't say anything about anything then we cannot discuss anything. Accusing me of flame baiting is saying you can read my mind. Now please remove your references and I will remove this reply.

TT does seem to be an equation to n00b but then let me show you uber noob:



Mixing and matching of parts. if you look real close you can see I mixed tubing sizes on one setup

[SNiiPE_DoGG]

Well to me its painfully obvious what you left the door open to here man and sorry if I took the thread where it wasn't going to go

I just don't want this to turn into a ban for you cuz we go way back to the dd forums and I like having you around

I had in mind showing some embarrassing pictures as you can see.

H20 Noob = Someone who tries to attach a 120mm fan to the end of the water tube.

H20 Pro = Someone who tried it and then reattached it to the pump or block where it belongs.

[warriorpoet]

DB, is that 1/2" and 1/4" in the same loop?!?!

Yikes!

[DarthBeavis]

Yes. So you might say, at least he only used a TT block . . .well, you did not see the rig I built for my wife around that same time:


LOL . . .EVERYTHING is TT except for the DD block. Check it out. I even have ALL the Aquabay accessories. So, there u go. TWO builds under my belt. Status = ? n00b. WTF?

[SNiiPE_DoGG]

I'm gonna dig around and see if I can find pics of my thermaltake bigwater 235

[DarthBeavis]

I changed my original thread to more accurately tell what this is about. This is going to be a bumpy ride if everyone throws in their best moments

[warriorpoet]

2x MCR120 internal
Opteron 170@2.4GHz (D-Tek MP-05)
x1900xtx (XxxX...x- EK FC-1800) OC'd
MCRES-1000
Laing D5
Yes, that's 3/8" Tygon on a D5- glad I didn't try that again

I had one rad pulling air through the front door, filter door and filter, the other was pulling hot air from inside the case. The top hole was exhaust. I couldn't figure out why my case temps were clearing 50c, and my CPU peaked at 55c (with 1600RPM fans front and top, Nexus in the rear). The back rad was actually warming up my components and restricting airflow to the rest of the case. The D5 was for Mk.2. Mk.1 had a bay res/ DDC combo; I thought the pump was my problem.

Yeah, n00b.

Funny thing is, I asked for a lot of advice on here and ignored most of it. Took most of it for try #2, and SURPRISE! My temps improved and I could run my fans slower/ quieter. Shocking; y'all knew better than me.

[DarthBeavis]

Let me show you what happened when I pulled out my Exos:

so a rebuild means I can say 3 builds. status = ? n00b

[Conumdrum]

Whatever. Go watch some TV.

[DarthBeavis]

So I buy a Monarch Hornet Pro as a clinic server (Opteron 185) and of course I have to mod it . . .arg.


uh, status? Answer; n00b

[DarthBeavis]

One thing all those build did FINALLY teach me (after many leaks) was to leak test outside of the case.

[NysoO]

Uhr, where is this going?

[hellcamino]

Lmao DB, I never used any TT wc stuff and if I had I would have deleted any pics like that a long time ago on the grounds that they might have incriminated me!

Wc newb = new guy with too many questions and not enough semi informed reading.

Wc nOOb = someone who has a functioning water-cooled pc and STILL thinks that the TT bigwater is as good as it gets.

[Eddie3dfx]

Not sure..

[SNiiPE_DoGG]

I cant find the pics of my Bigwater the earliest pic I have is my first Dangerden build.

[dopestuff]

[warriorpoet]

[CCC]
