i dont even have a car.... nice kit, and good looking mod... PS- im only 14... and in your sig, you spell duel DUAL
CursedBlad3, i dont honestly thinks he's all that rcih, he has just put his PC high up the list of priorites..... I would but my girlfriend costs me far too much.... im stuck with a rubbish clocking 146....
I just got a job, and i'm making more money than i have ever had in my bank ever per month! All of it (whats left over after expenses anyway) is about to go on my pc! I might even log it, but i don't think i will mod it too much..
Will please Log it or even just sick some photoes in the gallery after you have finished (get water cooling or even phase cooling now you have the money)
Question Time? Im trying to find a set of water cooling blocks that can run from a 8mm ID system but then be able to be upgraded to a 1/2" or 3/4" sytem when i get enough money? would alpha cool water blocks do the job?
Shopping Update 08/07/06 i dont need the question above answered i have done it for my self and i have just ordered the parts from alpha cool. Pump Chip Set
hi this is a small update to give you a quick example of how the water cooling will be in my case in both phases
mmm, spaghetti... i've always thought that if the water goes through one gfx card and then another, the second one will get warm water, thus lesser cooling. Wouldn't it be a better idea to have a Y connector followed by a valve to stop it circulating and then another Y connector to join it again... This way both cards get cold water. That way it could go: RAD \/ PUMP \/ /\ /''''\ GFX Card 1 - GFX Card 2 \.../ \/ (the little square chip..) \/ Resivoir if u have the split right after the pump then there would be no worries about one card getting more water than the other as the pressure would be pretty even there. just a thought.
Not really it wont raise it too much(1-2 degrees) and if you do the Y connection 1 of the graphics cards will get more flow than the other because water takes the path of least resistance so that will change temps more than just warmer water.
also each gfx card gets less water, so that will also raise thempreatures, i dont think it makes alot of difference, and you will just end up with both cards being hotter Also, heat froms from hot to cold, the water is unlikely to deposit its "heat" into the waterblock dont forget the Y splitter adds yet another piece of resistance in the loop
I am going to keep my system as i have stated in the loop which has a dual loop RES /***\ Pump***Pump |******/*\ CPU***GFX GFX |******\*/ Voltage***North Block*****Bridge \****/ RAD | RES This is so that the pumps have an unrestricted flow of water (cause my rad has a small ID)
I have just started on the final design of my res so that the CAD drawings can be sent of to mk plastics so it an be laser cut and etched. i also got my parts from alphacool this morning in the post ( i have assembled the blocks on to the mobo so will post some pics tonight
im sorry i get to involved with doing thing to my case i forget to post the pictures up, it is only when i get to work(without the pictures) that i relive i forgot to post them. but i promise that the pictures will be up tonight as well as a new render of my res that will be sent off to mk plastics for them to give me a quote. (and i might just find out what the name of one of the best plastic glues i have ever used)
Photo Update 15/07/06 Hi all This is a pic of my asus mobo with the chipset water block and the reg coolers bolted on see i said i would have photos up tonight will
Oh i got my countersunk pop rivets to day, I ordered the wrong ones 4x16 insted of 3x6 (well when I said "I" I mean my dad orded the wrong ones and i have open the box so i can not take them back) does any one want to buy them from me at a reduced price i have 500 of them
