at last ive just finished my second watercooling set-up

dubdvd

today after 2 days of pulling my hair out and filling my lungs with at least 200 smokes and a broken stick of 200 euro memory thats another story ....anyhow ive setup the NB and the GPU on the zalman reserator 1 using an innovek block for the GPU and the zalman GPU block for the NB ...and i got myself a dangerden RBX 775 block for the CPU with an eheim 1048 pump with a secondhand moped rad and 2x 120 mm fans and some half inch latex tubing ...i ran both set-ups for the night ..last night and no leaks so ive got it up and running now
im using a wavemaster case and the whole lot has to be outside ...im going to sell the case and get a stacker instead it might fit into that as you can see below it looks a bit mad but it does the job until i get the new case ...

heres some snaps of the rig and after the two days of hell ive had , im off get p*ssed and let off some steam before my lungs give in after all the cigs i've smoked for my nerves :rolleyes:

yep that is the my main rig the one below in the sig it may not be eye candy but trust me its doing its job as far as cooling is concerned ...the GPU and the NB are running in the mid 20s ide and 30 to 35c on full load and the cpu is running at low 30s idle and 45 on full load ,all after about 8 hours of running ...im going to get a coolermaster stacker and try get it all into it as the wavemaster isnt that big .. or if i was able i was going to try and get my hands on this baby...its called the U2UFO heres some more about it but i dont know yet if i can get it over here

Is it just me or are those temps not that amazing for a watercooling etup, your NB temp is close to mine using a small heatsink and fan. The gpu temp sounds good, is that temp running something like 3dmark for 8 hours or more???? And cpu doesnt sound amazing for water, i could be wrong though, what type of temps are others getting using decent WC kits?? my mate runs his oc'd p4 pc (that i built him) (2.8ghz @ 3.4ghz) on an aquairius 2 and it is near those cpu temps (never goes over 50 at full load)

I like the look of the rad on the outside, get an old crappy case and put everythin in it and bolt the rad to the side of it , it would look cool i think

Alwyas thought you were a bit ecentric with the homemade WC plan but now that i c your first comp i know your mad . Main rig looks class and well done on the home WC system,wiash i had the technical know how.

when my probe decides to read correctly i dont believe my cpu ever goes past 35 at 2640mhz...

remember that my CPU is a PRESCOTT base chip 775 3.4 ghz overclocked to 4.2 ghz with thw volt up from 1.30 to near 1.60 and after running 3dmark05 its running at 42c in my book that aint bad at all and the GPU is not going above 30c clocked at 594/615....so it aint to shabby at all ...the NB temp isnt the best cos i dont have eough pressure pushing the block aginst the chip so let be honest with this set up ive just got to page 5 of the overall 3dmark05 rankings with a score of 6674 and thats my first try with the full setup im using now and remember im down one of my 512mb sticks of ram ...so all im using is 512mb

This looks a old server case -with a couple of extra fan in it- does look good so does your main rig dubdvd

Ah yeh i wasnt sure just like to see what temps others are gettin on watercooling, wasnt sure they were low enough for water

dubdvd

heres a snap of the the voltage and the temps remember my FBS is @ 250 and im just under 4.3ghz with a 3.4ghz prescott ...and the GPU was at 594 core and memory 1206
