    been mulling over this for a while now, ive got all the bits i got left from a previous pc build, ddc pump, ek 100 res, rad, ps3 water block, now only place i am stuck on is powering the pump, initialy i wanted to use the ps3 psu but couldnt find much info on it part from the ps3 phat one does 300w. ive got an old shuttle psu, a pico 90w psu spare if i were to use either on of these how do i go about making the pump switch on the moment the ps3 is switched on?

    You could wire so the psu switch on the ps3 works as a on/off switch? or do you only turn off you ps3 from the front?

    use the button on the front, wish there was more info on modding the ps3, theres tons for xb360 even some on the wii, hardly anything and those who have watercooled thiers have shared very little info on how they did it

    Google for "water-cooled PS3". There are several work logs out there that may tell you.
