lian li pc x2000 watercooled

[Red-5]

Great looking build melle.k. Loved the pics of your cats, especially the one defending his bunker. Ecellent mate.

[melle.k]

thank mate. cats are always funny

[melle.k]

got meself a unibit





will drill some holes in the top middle plate for the pass through fittings

[mendel]

MELLE where you find the money for all these?

are you sure you have Black Ice SR-1 420?
what's the difference from Black Ice gtx 420?

i have the same case and i ll try watercool it

will black ice 480 fit in the case?

[mendel]

can you give a link for every part you bought for watercool

you ll help me a lot

i am from greece

black ice in their site dont have o model SR-1 420

[melle.k]

well I work hard for my money I work at a boat rental I paint the boats and build/repair things

and yes I am pretty sure I have a sr1 420 and its designed to perform the best with low rpm fans and to be silent. the gtx 420 is designed to perform with high rpm fans and because off that it wont be silent. and apart from that the sr1 just looks way better then the gtx.

and here is an list of al my watercooling components

rad: http://www.highflow.nl/radiatoren/14...tml?cs_cookies

cpu block: http://www.highflow.nl/water-blocks/...tml?cs_cookies

2X pump:http://www.highflow.nl/pompen/laing-...tml?cs_cookies

pump top:http://www.highflow.nl/pompen/laing-...tml?cs_cookies

reservoir:http://www.highflow.nl/reservoirs/tu...tml?cs_cookies

and some fittings and tubing if you want me to list those as well just ask

about fitting a black ice 480 in the case. I don't think that is possible. I choose the sr1 because it perfectly fitted in the case and even then I had to make some holes and replace some things in the case. so no I think not

[mendel]

i am a doctor in greece but i dont have a lot of money yet.doctors have money after 40 years old unfortunately

i want the links for tubing and fitting please.i dont know a lot for water


i have i7 920 C0
my p6T deluxe is dead after 1 year and replaced it with GIGABYTE UD7

the northibridge of ud7 has 1/4 tuding ,can i use 1/2 tubes?

the site highflow i dont know if they accept order from greece

sory for the bad spelling

[felix_w]

mendel,

Yes, Highflow sends to Greece, i got almost all my stuff from there.

You can use 1/4 -> 1/2 adapter for your NB block

Aqua-Computer Aquacover Dual DDC Top

this what is for?"pump top" what means?

felix thanks(mi mou ta steiloune se deka xronia fovame mono,eidikotita ksekinao aygousto,stratiotikos giatros eimai,to pump top ksereis ti kanei?)

melle if we had a biger reservoir we d had problems with space?

[melle.k]

well I have two pumps and the Aqua-Computer Aquacover Dual DDC Top links them together so that I have twice the pump capacity.

and you could get a bigger reservoir but you would have to mount it somewhere ells like next to the motherboard

and here is the list off tubing and fittings I used

tubing:
2Xhttp://www.highflow.nl/slangen/1-2-s...tml?cs_cookies I used two meters

fittings:
4X http://www.highflow.nl/aansluitingen...tml?cs_cookies 2X for the radiator 2X to go on the pass through fittings
4X http://www.highflow.nl/aansluitingen...tml?cs_cookies 2X for the cpu water block 2X for spare
5X http://www.highflow.nl/aansluitingen...tml?cs_cookies 4X for reservoir and pump 1X for a fill line from the reservoir
2X http://www.highflow.nl/reservoirs/fi...tml?cs_cookies 2X for the loop to go through the upper mid plate
1X http://www.highflow.nl/aansluitingen...tml?cs_cookies 1X to close the loop

I hope this helped you

[mendel]

thank you friend


i have the same ram as yours ,i hope it will work with UD7(i ll have it wednesday)

i have tried coolermaster V8 ,NOCTUA 12 but i ll try water now in my X2000
for cpu,NB and GTX295

show more photos please if you can,I dindnt understand where is the reservoir,i can't see it in a photo

[melle.k]

here you can see that I have attached it to the drive bay


and here you see it the drive bay with the reservoir on it placed in the case

[mendel]

thanks

you haven't made new holes in the drive.is this right?

i measured 160 mm can fit in drive bay


i see 4 "13MM (1/2) Schroeffitting 90 graden - G1/4" in the photo


if i buy waterblock for gtx 295 i ques i ll need 2 pumbs,2 rads and 2 reservoir
with one rad 420 can i cool NB CPU and 295 together?


if i buy black ice 480 i ll have to cut the upper plate too



in your post that you give the link for the fittings can you say where exactly you used each part?

thanks

[melle.k]

I did make new holes in the drive bay for the reservoir.

I don't know if a 420 rad can cool all off your hardware but you can ask it here http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...=54331&page=15
those people know a lot more about watercooling then me.

about placing a 480 rad I don't think that is possible because you would have to remove the drive bay to make place for the rad

and I edited the post with the fittings now you can see what I used and where I used it

some things will be hard to understand but my build is not done yet so I cant explain it better then I did

[mendel]

480 rad has Height 517 mm so it will be dificult(not imposible) to fit(we have space 520mm avalaible)

i quess you will remove 3 hard drives because 420 has Thickness 54 mm

ok

i ll wait your built to finish and then decide for mine

[melle.k]

ok but don't wait to long :P

[CptDreadFlint]

Love the look of your mounted res, melle.k And I found the unibit a Godsend when it came to installing my pass-throughs. Keep up the great work!

[melle.k]

thanks it means a lot to me coming from you.
haha I stole the unibit idea from you

[Wezly]

thanks it means a lot to me coming from you.
haha I stole the unibit idea from you

Did you name it???

[melle.k]

no maybe you know a good name

[shazza]

Did you name it???

nice progress, melle. Anxiously awaiting a photo showing how the mounted res fits into the overall case (I'm not good at visualizing this stuff) - nice idea!

[melle.k]

thanks I hope I can use the unibit tomorrow. but would it be easier to use a column drill or is a normal drill just as easy ?
because there is one at my work

Dual DDC Top refers to being able to get 2 DDC pumps in series in the same loop, in a very compact and tube-less way. You just install the dual-top in the pumps (see melle.k's link for images) and connect to the rest of the loop.

While I prefer to use the drill press (same as column drill, I think) - it's quite easy to do with a handheld drill. Of course it always helps to get the drill going in the right direction (I said it before someone else did )
