Temps now are 22-23C idle/ 34-35 full load @ 2.4GHz. Videocard temps are 22-23 idle/ 37-38 full load OC'ed @ 500/1310 via Rivatuner. The kit is by DD and consists of: TDX waterblock, BIX2 radiator w/ (2)120mm Papst fans, Maze4 SLi block kit w/ OCZ ramsinks, Filiport resovoir w/ MCT-40 solution, D5 pump, fittings, 11ft. clearflex 1/2in tubing. **sorry for the links, pics too big to upload**

Re: Just finished my water setup!
Looks good, couple suggestions though. Ditch the 90 degree elbow, it reduces flow and in your case there are ways around using one. IMO you shouldn't have went with the BIX and just got a heatercore, better performance and better price.
Otherwise it looks great, it's always great to see a good custom setup.Comment

Re: Just finished my water setup!
I thought about the heater core too. But I think they are a bit over-rated as far as performance w/ the BIX2.. yah it may cost more but performance wise, they're pretty equal... http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?pag...item=328&num=2 and I did think about the 90degree elbows w/ restriction but how will it affect my temps? already running 22-23C idle. just wondering if the results are substantial. thanks for the replies though!Originally posted by lil_jimmy_nortonComment

Re: Just finished my water setup!
hey little jimmy norton, i was looking at your comp on your link and this picture

has a duracell batterie sticking in the water pipe? how does that work? wouldnt it leak and stuff? im almost positive sticking a duracell battery in there isnt how it would work heh,
also, are these uber nerd water cooling setups just homemade, or do you buy a kit?Comment

Re: Just finished my water setup!
Very nice,
Does that water cooler got neons in, If so let me see a pic in the dark.
Great rig. I won't invest in water cooling for a long while, as fans r ok for now as i dont overclockComment

I knew I'd get comments about the books! :laugh:Originally posted by Flanker
Almost everyone here will not reccomend a kit. Most will reccomend buying from DangerDen, Swiftech, etc.... AS for the battery, I'm assuming he's using a T-Line for a resovoir and the battery for a "cover" since it fits.Originally posted by IntensivCareBear

Re: Just finished my water setup!
Woo, if hes using a battery as a cover.
Itl fly out. and leak everywhere, what a risk in destorying his pc.
I think its to help circulate the water tbh.Comment

You're an idiot. The battery has no pressure behind it.
I could take the battery out, and it wouldn't leak everywhere as long as it stays upright.

Re: Just finished my water setup!
When I had no reservoir I had a t-fitting with a battery and had no problems. A lot of people use a battery to cap off the t-fitting.
Nice case by the way, I've got the same one. Where did you put the radiator? I have a heatcore and it's way to big for the case so I widened the holes above the pci ports and routed the tubing out the back to the heatercore. I take it your radiator is in the 5" bays in front?Comment
