... you mean a briefcase PC right? Been done before, briefcases were all the rage two years back AFIK.

they don't have special APE 1800 brackets, but two sets of 360 brackets _should_ work.

basically, the TCS is a thermal fuse, placed on the processor heatsink. If/when it exceeds a temperature of 60°c, it switches off. Reset temp is 30°c. You put it inline with the ATX PS#ON lead on the cable from PSU to mobo. So when the fuse trips, the PSU shuts down immediatley.

That would be egay. You _need_ this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=58254&item=7504047768&rd=1 you will _want_ this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=12584&item=7504671874&rd=1 And you'll be dreaming about this...

what you need is a milling machine. They come in all flavors, from $300 (approx) standard 3-axis systems up to 6-axis CNC beasts for 100000+. What you need would be in the $4-500 range for manual drive, or $1000 or so for CNC. CNC is better, as its much easier to machine curves. What zero...

The general consensus here is that prebuilt, lowcost kits are well... carp. You'll get similar or even better temps with good air cooling, for a fraction of the cost.

Somehow the idea of using liquid metal seems a little... strange maybe? Off the hand, I know of three metals that are liquid at or slightly above room temp. There is quicksilver: Toxic, highest vapor pressure found in metals, and a denger with some other metals. For example, put a drop of...

Having some made would be one way, another would be getting two Y connectors thet go from one 1/2 barb to two 3/8 ones, and using them to connect two 3/8 waterblocks.

...which is why they come in that flavor (among many others) :rolleyes: :D

Those look like Legris products. They sell much better than what AC sells (metal with plastic retainer rings), or the full-plastic parts, at least over here.

I believe AC buys the Plug n Cool fittings from Festo, who call them "QS", as in QS 1/8 8 for a straight screw-in fitting for 1/8 thread and 8mm OD hose, or QSLL 1/4 10 for a long, L-shaped screw-in for 1/4 thread and 10mm OD hose. See http://www.festo.de for more info.

Well, you can throw that straight back at the seller (at least in europe). Or, try an Eheim Compact 300. Smallest WC/Aquarium pump I know of.

Thro that right back at them. Because of shipping costing thirty dollars, you will likely get a new one and keep the old. Why? Because under EU law, if the product is bought from a retailer, ynd damaged during shipping, and worth more than 40 Euros, the retailer has to pay all shipping costs...
