    [User Review] Alphacool Cape Fuzion Core 10 & 30 - Acetal - Black Reservoir

    10 is too small and 30 is too big, I agree. I'd purchase a 20-25cm one if it was made.

    WC Kits? Are all of them useless?

    Rasa kits are good, but you need to replace the tubing and fans that come with it. The tubing is pretty cheap and the fans are too loud. If you don't care about tubing or quiet, it's good to go.

    Should I be avoiding any EK products that use nickel?

    Is that nickel flaking off or some kind of build up? I can't tell from pictures.

    Should I be avoiding any EK products that use nickel?

    Interesting find here from an independent......... http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showpost.php?p=4874310&postcount=24 This would explain why EK thinks their nickel plating is fine. That might not be the problem.

    Scythe Gentle Typhoons making awful sounds

    I use the 1150's and they are pretty close to silent. They don't make a hissing sound at any level. Maybe a bad batch or like someone said, counterfeit.

    Should I be avoiding any EK products that use nickel?

    I saw an EK rep post on a forum and he mentioned that their plating was only 10 microns thick. That is the problem. If it's scratched at all during manufacturing, the exposed copper will corrode causing the nickel to peel off like blistering skin after a bad sun burn.

    Is 1/4" tubing a bad choice?

    Yeah. It's basically like putting a NO setup on a car. You don't really need it because your car will do most everything you need. It sure is nice to have it in case you ever need to go from 100 to 150 in like 2 seconds. I mean tell that's not handy, eh?

    Where do you guys order your WC parts?

    This. Between these two stores, you should find about anything you need.

    Is 1/4" tubing a bad choice?

    I disagree. Fittings are what really got me and those are totally reusable. For some reason I really like fittings and that has been 50% of my total costs. Hell, I even bought some I didn't need yet. A nice set of fans are always transferable. CPU blocks are a good to reuse depending on...

    Is 1/4" tubing a bad choice?

    I just put all new tubing in my loop. I went from 3/8 ID to 1/2ID 3/4OD. I think looks alone make it better, but honestly I don't see any real noticable change in temperatures. Maybe a degree or two. If you are using a lot of Bitspower fittings, you can make any tubing fit anywhere. The...

    BSOD thanks to "ntoskrnl.exe", but only in COD

    Honestly, I'm having the same problem with my rig. I have the same video card and processor. Once I hit 3.5, my video becomes unstable. BSOD errors: 116 almost every time with the same driver you listed. I can disable the nvidia drivers and clock up to 4.5 with no problem. I'm still working...

    BSOD thanks to "ntoskrnl.exe", but only in COD

    Is it just me or is that voltage really high? I'm assuming it's a typo. Most people can run an i7 950@4.0GHz under 1.35v and down to 1.1x

    RX360 enough for my 980X and 6990.

    I'm running that exact same rad with lower RMP GTs in the exact same case. I'm running a i7 950 @ 4.1GHz and my GTX 470 @850Mhz. My temps are okay there (around 50 under normal use and upper 60's under stress testing). That seems to be the limit on the rad, though. Any higher OC on the CPU...

    Experience with a XSPC Rasa RX240 kit?

    I said earlier that I have the 360 kit. I got it to quiet my system, not to OC. People said I couldn't OC because the 360 rad was too weak or add a GPU block with a weak pump in the kit or any combo of those variables. Well, that proved wrong. Right now, I'm running my GTX470 at 850 mhz and...

    Radiator fans

    I'll throw another vote for the GT's. I can't speak to the 1500 RMP range, but the I got the step below those (1031 RPM I think). My fan controller can get them up to 1300 RPM and I literally can't hear them. The box said they vibrate at a frequency human ears can't detect. I'm going to...
