Car Cooled

I was going to add 2 120cm fans to the radiator, and add a few neon tubes behind the radiator as well.

Can I borrow some of your amazing liquid cooling setup skills?

Pretty nice man, thing must weigh alot, i reccomend when you get some more money, to buy those new asetek water chill systems http://www.frozencpu.com/ex-wat-94.html

I could see you could have ALOT of fun with those, nice 478 man I lovve it!

I mentioned this to another person today on the forums here, using car parts (specifically, auxiliary tranny OR oil coolers):

(In the "Conroe @ 4ghz" oriented thread, & the guy was thinking of the same basic idea, but not yet implemented iirc - & now here in THIS thread? LOL, cool - Someone's actually done it as we now see here... some wild ideas in motion here on these forums now in case mods imo!)

:)

* Makes sense - the things aren't expensive by comparison to some PC parts @ all, by any means, & cost like $30-$40 depending on the size & type @ most automotive parts stores.

I have them on my ride in fact, good business imo!

Plus, now & IF I ever "hydro-cool" (one of the things I have never invested time & money in, but would be NEAT to do)?

These'd obviously do the job!

(Probably keeping things COOL AS ICE no doubt & providing awesome amounts of water-flow over stock pc hydro-cooling options, especially in water tank/recirculating radiators type areas! The ONLY thing I might add, is some 5.25" fans on the outside hitting those cooling fins too... others (edit part, the builder "chillen" here of all folks) may have mentioned that already as well upon my skim I think I saw that... it WOULD rock (great minds think alike))

Compliments to the designer... was it ROUGH to do I have to ask?

APK

P.S.=> Back to "War of the Worlds" on DvD here!

Awesome (Tom Cruise was born in my town too oddly enough)!

Plus, a real "Sopranos" type meal (butterflied fried Italian Sausage (locally produced & fresh), peppers, onions, cooked in olive oil & sliced tomatoes in sour cream w/ pepper, salt, oregano, & doritos!!!)

It rocks (food & the flick - goes along w/ this rig pictured here's cooling solution! Hot-Rod parts in a PC?? Excellent, fits RIGHT in imo)... apk

My first liquid cooling days were nuts. i tried the whole summerging my computer in cooking oil but within a week i could take that smell. Then I bought the Aquagate System. The one that takes up 2 5 1/2drive bays. DONT BUY THIS, the water block got "spydercracks" thru the acrylic and broke all over my computer. But of course I was reimbursed for all of it. I think I still have the pics if anyone doesnt believe me. Ever since then I dont buy systems, I make them myself(picking and choosing parts). I tried the whole "home made waterblock but not worth it".

Ive been using car parts for a LONG time. During the winter I tried something different. I put a car radiator outside and ran tubing to it. That worked. For only a few days though. Condesation was chaotic.

Was it rough. Just a payne. Honestly to tell the truth the centurion case was so unique that I had to get it. No-one has moded that I know of. And I didn't want to get what everyone else had. But be warned the centurion has NO cable management what-SO-ever!

In a few days it will be closer to completion. On the way from frozencpu(ONLY THE BEST). Is a new water block Danger Den TDX 1/2" , and Danger Den MAZE4 Intel 865/875 1/2", and some gree dye. At this current time I'm trying to figure out my camera to take night shots, each time I take a picture in dark, the flash is to bright, and the picture looks as if it were taken in the day. So just give me a while and I'm sure I'll Learn!

Has some very good potential is very unique i have not seen a centurion case like that!! 10/10

yea man that hit the spot. nice coldness in the hot weather! oh i mean awesome case dude i like when u said 2.8 runnen at whatever, i have seen this wtf2006 somewhere else i think. but hey may-b u could do what i did to "chill" even more. make a reservoir outta copper/steel/aluminum and hook up some peltiers to it what would lower temps. other that that great case needs a few more things. 120 fan in the back the case where it gets air from needs to be smoothed out. happy modding

man dude that 4 musta been a real hater, wish someone would justify that!!!!

Nah, dude its straight, people can vote the way they want to.

I guess it was my HORRIBLE photography. I need to practice on that. Just wait for my new waterblocks, then I'll update my pictures. Untill then just practice!!

I know. How long will it take me to download all of your professional skills?

My skillz ehh. I'm currently enroled in a tech school. So good luck(not saying that it a mean way) PRACTICE. you can talk to any DECENT liquid cooler. You can't learn without mistake. That said, not official liquid cooler w/out a leak. That's how you know your not pushing far enough. To me a computer is never stable untill it's unstable!

Once you start liquid cooling, you never can go back. Yea, trust me though even to THIS DAY whenever I'm away from the computer and its running, I'm still worried about leaks. I can't emphasize this enough how I cringe whenever I see someone with the Termaltake Big Water set-up, or the Cooler Master Aquagate system. I don't like the acrylic that they use. Like I said earlier the acrylic in mine cracked. I'll post another computer up showing the effects of it.

no problem, i just offset it with another 10! if this isnt unique what is?
does this thing post or is it just for show? either way it shows real nice!
is that a power head from a fish tank or garden fountain? good job man.

Ohh, does it run good. Although I don't participate in Benchtesting. It's not running right now though. I removed all the waterblocks and tubing, and right now have added a new cpu, and north bridge waterblock(both danger den). And right now am waiting for some replacement barbs. I'll updates pics when I can. Thanks for the vote!!

i have a a couple gamers right now and one has the aquagate mini r120 on intel 775 3.4ghz. im just not impressed with it and had to rma it already cause it died. i may post it cause it shows real good too. but im just not impressed with the cooling even with lots of fans and the aqugates fan cranked it just doesnt cool any better(if as good) as my arctic cooler7 on air. the cooler 7 is dead quiet too. im running one on a dualcore 3.0 oc'd to 3.215 and its cooler than the mini r120. i guess if you want the real deal you have to get your feet(and not your puter) wet. cograts again on a cool setup.

My new set-up is killing me on how to route my cables. I can't just go from CPU to NB to GPU. There is a major kink from NB to GPU. So I dont know what to do my new set up has tubing going all over the place, and I think I lost that clean look.

I think I might throw in the towel and buy some tygon tubing. But I don't know if it can make it from the NB to the GPU. Also from the CPU to the NB. I do not want to buy any elbows.

Heh. To early.
