Well mines mostly done (PICS)

[nodle]

Well mine is mostly done. I need to clean up my wires etc. I didn't want to cut up my case that much and wanted it to look stock also. Also everyone said that 2 80mm Black Ice radiators wouldn't be enough, but they are cooling my processor just fine. I sit anywhere from 30c to 38c max load temps. Its a Amd 64 3200+. Well enough talk on to the pics. Hope you enjoy!

Thanks for posting this I have the exact same case and just got my DFI SLI-DR and venice 3200 install I was wondering my optons for wc. Nice job btw. how much did just the watercooling stuff cost?

[macrospect]

Very nice! I love how you can take the mobo side out to work on the case.

what kind of pump is that? and is your cpu overclocked?

 

[nodle]

Its a Danger Den CSP-MAG pump. Actullay runs off of polished sapphires. There is barely a vibration and totally silent. You don't even know if its running or not. Thankfully I can read the rpm through my motherboard, or you wouldnt even know its running. I am very impressed with the pump and would buy another in a second. And no not overclocked yet

first, very neat/tidy watercooled setup .. second, what are you using to close the T-line? also how's your loop running? pump>>rad >> rad>> cpu>> pump??

thanks

I'd bet the coinage in my pocket he is running pump>>CPU>>rad>>rad>>pump . . .

You are correct sir, you want the fluid to get to the pump asap so that it doesn't run dry. Also the cap on my T-line is a Danger Den fill port...

Looks sweet, I can't wait to go DIY for my next system

 

[Scroatdog]

DAMMIT!!!! Everyone beat me to it.... EXTREMELY clean, simple, and organized system. There is something about a simple and clean watercooling setup that just makes it special. Excellent work.

Mine is by no means a spaghetti factory, but it's pretty busy inside.

 

[vapb400]

Looks awesome! What size tubing is that? 3/8ID or 5/16ID?

keep an eye on that pump my just died last week brand new 3 days old
dd had to send me another, good thing i was in the room when my pump went out

it actually shatterd the top half inside the pump,underneath the DD silver label

 

[.xXLucidXx.]

the part on the right is where the impeller went and the whole inside was delrin and actually shatterd

 

[eumskickin]

sweet setup, nice and clean. i like them like that.
kinda like mine

 

[pre1014]

what? Polished Sapphires? sounds like some sort of time travel device.
very very clean though

I hope this is an isolated incident and wont be a repeat of earlier csystems pumps which had chronic failure problems.

 

[.xXLucidXx.]

well DD sent me another pump free of charge and it looks a little different on the inside so we will give it a try
when my first pump went out i noticed a whine then i immediatley shut my computer down and tested the pump with a diff. power supply until it eventually died and locked up an the impeller wouldnt even turn anymore, looked inside an it was shatterd

 

[Scubastevie00]

Got any temps yet man?

 

[nodle]

Its 3/8ID tubing, Ya my temps are like right now 31c, It usually sits anywhere from 30-32c and the max I had it was like 38c, but that was stressing the system and it was about 79f in the room. Glad you all like it!
