I was able to start and finish this project in the time the fourms were down. But here are the results.
Please forgive for how slow these pictures come up, my school site seems to be bogged down.
the water block is 3x2" and has 12 1/16" wide and 1/4" deep and each channel is approximately 2" long. When you add up the surface area along the channel it come out to just over 15 in*in of surface area!
The radiator is a little overkill comming in at 7.5"x17"x0.75" but ill add in the GPU, NB, and possibly another CPU in the future.
I bought quite a bit extra metal stock to make redesigns and also make some for my friends and hopefully it will pay for itself.
The temps are about 8C lower in idle than my 900A w/SF2 on full blast and about 15C lower under load. Temps are higher than i was expecting, but it is starting to get hot here in Sacramento. I suspect that my water block is too open to get the turbulance I want, so im going to redesign the top piece to have some inserts into the channels to increase restriction and water velocity.
