Alright, have an Abit A8N32X in a LianLi PC1200, so the motherboard is upside down, and the PWM reaches 64C in some instances. That's something I'd like to get a handle on, and I'm thinking the following might help.


NexXxoS NB-SLI Northbridge
Mosfet AN8 Series

Now these are both small diameter, so I'm thinking the appropriate connector is in order but I'm not sure if it's the right one. If I use those, I would need the appropriate tubing and then finally, a radiator, t-line, and pump, but I'm worried most about the tubing fitting the barb on the t-line, pump, and radiators. So, after looking over all of the stuff I'd like to get, the deal breaker is this, will 8mm ID fit on a 3/8" barb?

For what it's worth this is my first small bore kit. I already have a DD CSP-MAG 12v pump, TDX for AMD, and BlackIce Extreme 2 all on 1/2" but I'm wanting to put a second CSP in, along with the parts mentioned above, on 2x120mm BI Pros. Advice?

well i run 8x10 tubing and i see no way that you can stretch it over 3/8 barbs. Instead of getting that pump you might just want to dish out a little more and get a eheim that can be fitted w/those fittings. Thats the pump im using and i have a dual 120 rad all w/8x10 compression fittings.
 
Never done it before but the high flow guys do 7/16" over 1/2" barbs routinely. So I don't see why you couldn't put a 5/16" tube over a 3/8" barb. Just heat up the tubing in water and cram it on the barb. You might also check out the fittings page at Sharka as they have a lot of unusual fittings.
 
Well I went and read some things about some stuff and water cooling. Then I saw that some crazy guys use 1/2" OD barbs with 3/8" ID tubing, and decided if they can do it, I can absolutely get 8/10mm ID/OD on 3/8" OD barbs.

Wish me luck. I'll try to take pictures, but I might just get too excited and forget. Hopefully the package will arrive in the next month, or so.
