    Not PVC but a reasonable range at Specialtech

    You weren't planning on trying to cool anything other than a motherboard with that chiller were you?

    Chilling 3x 480's R3E and a i7 965 @ 4.4.

    I had a 1000 model but it went back on pain of death from the GF.

    It cools everything pretty well, I just need a bigger reservoir.

    Room temperature is 27c, hailea temp set to 9c

    I misunderstood. I thought you were planning on using the '54 Quart Marine' as a chiller.

    ahh ok, no. just need a big ass buffer for the chiller, using 2x ek spin bay reservoirs at the mo and it's not really enough surface area of water.

    need more dissipation and a bigger pool of water should take longer to reach an equilibrium.

    Anyone got any ideas on this, i've been scouring the net but only able to find ones like elf recommended from specialtech and I would prefer a PVC one in a 50 litre tank, i think it would seal better with silicone than a metal one.
