    water cooling diagram - advice sought!

    So I could do without the (in my diagram) green line plus fillport plus reservoir (the upper purple rectangle in the bottom the case) deal, and just have the fillport connected to a t junction in the 120.2 > pump line? Neat!

    water cooling diagram - advice sought!

    So! This is my revised plan. :D cooling: pump > gpu > 120.1 > cpu > 120.2 > res > pump filling: fillport > res (direct line, green in diagram) with open fillport > 120.2 (off t junction) draining: 120.2 > fillport and res > fillport Both fillports would be on the same level, it's just tricky...

    water cooling diagram - advice sought!

    Will do - though I think that won't happen till tomorrow! - and thanks! I'm new to this... I'd like to overclock it, but what would be perfect was if there was a way I could run it overclocked sometimes, silent at others. The motherboard can control the fan speeds based on temperature, so I...

    water cooling diagram - advice sought!

    First up, thanks for this - I will investigate when I get home with the scale rad drawings that Thermochill provide. :D My question is, how does it work - I mean if I have a half full res below the level of my rad, won't the rad drain out until my res is full? I think I'm probably just not...

    water cooling diagram - advice sought!

    Cheers for that! Perhaps if I mount the external radator far enough out and have a shroud / deflector moving the air up and away from the internal 120? I will mock up! Thanks! That'd be ace! GPU I don't know, the CPU will (probably) be a Core 2, maybe a Q6600? I need to research more! I have...

    water cooling diagram - advice sought!

    Hi. attached is a diagram of a possible water cooling loop for my system :D . It would be: fillport > res > pump > 120.1 rad > gpu block > 120.2 rad > cpu > res I would have the 120.1 rad fan blowing into the system, and another 120 fan blowing over the hard drives and into the system...

    general cooling questions / Lian Li A16 rad placement question / introduction!

    Thanks guys! I have printed out radiator size sheets so will play around with cardboard mockups to try out your ideas - much appreciated! Cheers Makrie

    general cooling questions / Lian Li A16 rad placement question / introduction!

    Hi all! :) So, I'm just working my way through the water-cooling 'post your system' thread - amazing! - and I've been through the FAQ and a few other threads... figured I'd introduce myself and ask a couple questions at the same time! :D I've owned two computers up till now... both have...
