It seems that one of my tubes are too short, and is bending around a corner cutting off flow, what do u think is the best way to replace this tube? it goes from the Aquagra 6800 to the Resevoir, there a way without draining the wholeee entire system and clearing out my mobo/drives etc. And would i have to take the aquagra 6800fx off my graphics card

And if i do plan on upgrading to an aquero how should i drain the system?

And what is the best cooler for the DFI Lanparty NF4 chipset?

And does the aquero come with water temp sensors and water level sensors or do i have to buy it seprately, and what is the point of water level sensors??

And is that new PC Ice liquid fluid worth getting if i refill the system wtih new liquid
 
I would just drain the system and do it over again. Either that or clamp it off on both sides in the middle and add connectors <---not recommended.
 
From what I've read (in here in fact) the PC Ice is too viscuous (thick) to work well with a lower flow setup and will have a negative affect on your performance.

Best way, like the others have said, put in a longer length of hose where required. With all the push fits you shouldn't have to remove teh block unless you got some really weird connections goin on.

pick a tube thats far away from anything, disconnect it, and drain into a bucket.

Since you're already using AC, go with their snazzy SLI block that fits under the cards.

I'm pretty sure it's all seperate. As for why the water-level sensors are important... I dunno. If you have a leak, your probly gonna notice the smoke and death (or just a puddle) before any substancial amount is removed from the resivoir. There are a lot of little do-dads that AC sells that don't make much sense, but whatever creams your twinkee

From waht I hear, the regular pc ice (clear) isn't too bad, nor is it too good. But the colored stuff will leave gunk in your system so steer clear of it. Why not some nice water + pentosin?
 
I've had bad luck with blue food coloring.. jsut stick with the pentosin... and dont do the stealing part... i think thats frowned up on by the moderators
