(copied from my thread in "cooling and ocing")
**I decided that it was in my best interest to go with water cooling as I want to overclock my q6600 more than 3.5ghz. LGA775 ftw I had a coolermaster aquagate mini r80 but I killed the pump some how now im getting all the stuff together for a much better setup.
my pump will be a Laing DDC-1T from bmaverick, with a Danger Den Copper TDX block from BoT. Tonight I'm going to get some more random stuff including a dual 120mm radiator from v12dock (lives near me). I'm also trying to get an xspc dual 5.25 drive reservoir from ebay
Here is my old setup
got my bucket o' liquid cooling from v12dock last night. Got it all up and running makes the inside of my case look lovely.. but the outside does look a bit ghetto rigged lol. It cools real good though. stock clock for my q6600 is 2.4ghz and it levels out at 37c with prime95 running. Oh and I didn't reapply silver5 because I'm getting a different block that actually has 775 support and its still getting those temps so I'm happy
pretty
not so much
lookin better
its worth it for a temporary setup
I'll keep uploadin pics as the setup comes together **
The stuff has been coming in and now all i need is the tubing, and 4 more 1/2id fittings. I also discovered that the only realistic way to mount the radiator with this case will be to put it on the outside and have the fans blowing through it that way. I guess I kinda wanted it on the inside but its not a big deal. But I will need to get some 90 degree fittings for it to work well.
Here is the radiator and block
front of the res
internal res (you can kinda see the pump all attached up in there)
