So why not! I need a little more oomph when it comes to benching, so I got myself a little water cooling setup. The lower level of my tech-station is a perfect fit for one, here's what I've got going so far...
So here's what it looked like with a buch of hardware strapped to it.
I took off all the hardware and disassembled what I needed to. Then I placed the water cooling hardware where I wanted it. Here, I installed the radiator with "L" brackets.
Next I mounted the resevoir on one of the supports. Just drilled the holes, added bolts, viola!
Installed the pump using the very handy (and sticky) foam pad. The place I ordered everything from gave me 3/8" tubing instead of 1/2". So I had to run to the local hardware store and found some horribly stiff 1/2" clear hose. It will work for now, got everything together, added distilled water, the pump is priming and working beautifully! I've got some silver Tygon on the way...
Parts used so far:
Swiftech MCP655 Pump
DTek Fuzion V2
Black ice GT Stealth 240-Xflow
Swiftech Micro Resevoir
2 x Yate Loon 120mm High Speed fans.
If I have the time tomorrow I may try hooking this thing up to my Q6600 for some benching.
