    I dig it Found one link with this for sale and and it's from China directly so not sure on availability or shipping costs. I think that I saw another rack mounted dual ITX board, so need to pull that one up again. The Morex company still hasn't responded about that 4 ITX boards in case so...

    Looking for a 2+ in 1 computer case / worklog

    This is the case I am trying to get but I haven't been able find it yet. I'm waiting to hear back from the company. I understand the complexity, I run a 600VM farm across 30 blade hosts at work. My point here is to run a cluster at home for additional experimenting and playing at home. My...

    Finally Done!!

    Thanks. The 120.1 radiator was originally just for helping cool the coolant before entering the second card since these cards do run hot. In the end, I agree that having that radiator helps with aesthetics a bit since there is a slight curve to the tubing. It also helps by passing air over the...

    Finally Done!!

    Yes, this rig has the 4870x2 in crossfire. My last iteration in the P182 also had them.

    Finally Done!!

    A solid year of tweaking and I finally completed my machine. Originally, I was looking to use an Antec P182 case. That went through several revisions: First watercooling attempt was ok. I didn't take into account how water takes the path with least resistance and one of my video cards wasn't...

    multiple loops

    I am looking to changing cases. Primarily to get everything internal and with the new room I'll have, I'm curious if changing my loop config would be beneficial. The new case will provide a lot more room and allow dual loops but would it really be beneficial? Currently I am running; QX9650 @...

    Cooling QX9650 & (2) 4870x2

    Until this battle station is fully operational, we are vuln... sorry just watched the movie. That is awesome with what you are running is near my setup. Of course, I have another 4870 dumping heat but the additional 120s should help a lot. I should have a test run with it this weekend and...

    Cooling QX9650 & (2) 4870x2

    I can see where two loops are beneficial but I don't want to many hoses going all over the place. I want it clean and simple. Sure there may be more heat than expected but as long as the end result is acceptable then I'm ok. :D So moving forward, here is my loop. Pump > Feser 360 >...

    Help with EK X-Top (MCP655)

    This is interesting but after I moved the chassis forward. The sound went away but I leveled the system again. No cavitation sounds. I performed a cycle test (power on/off) several times (enough time for things to equalize) and it never returned. Maybe the angle helped move the low pressure out...

    Help with EK X-Top (MCP655)

    Here is another one. Originally I had the pump inlet going directly into the res. Basically the pump was upright vs on it's back. I had the SAME problem. I thought it was do to the other inlet within the EK Top. It may have trapped air, I tried rotating the case to release that pocket of...
