    Tube gauge question

    Thanks for all the good insight. I do find the thinner tubes to be more easily manageable, but in the future I might upgrade to a slightly thicker guaged tube to push more liquid through as several have previously stated. My case is quite large, so I'm sure with some "creative" workarounds it...

    7900GTX Chipset cooling help

    Thanks Toddm27, yeah I just went ahead and picked up that thermal tape from Fry's anyway. I found the manufacturer's website, and it looks like exactly the thing I need. http://www.magaland.com/tape.html Their website definately isn't much to look at; almost feels like a homemade product...

    7900GTX Chipset cooling help

    Thanks Erasmus354! In doing the method you described, there will not be any issue with removing those heatsinks at a later time? I'm looking into maybe replacing my water block with a Koolance VID-200-L06 or even a Danger Den cooler, so a less "permanant" solution would be ideal :). Thanks...

    7900GTX Chipset cooling help

    Thanks for that, yeah I planned on thoroughly cleaning all the chips before proceeding. One solution I have been reading about is using something like Artic Alumina as an adhesive, but I'm afraid of it being permanantly fixed to the chips (in case i need to go with another solution in the...

    7900GTX Chipset cooling help

    I posted this in the Nvidia Forums here but haven't gotten any responses yet, so I figured it being a cooling question, I should probably ask here. I recently built a new PC, and am running a Thermaltake water cooling solution in it. I went ahead and removed my stock cooler on my XFX 7900GTX as...

    7900GTX Chipset cooler

    Hi all, my first post to what looks to be a fairly knowlegable and helpful forum for enthusiasts like myself. I recently built a new PC, and am running a water cooling solution in it. I went ahead and removed my stock cooler on my XFX 7900GTX as well, so I could take advantage of water...
