Nooh's Watercooling System

[nope]

Impressive stuff

Surely you should buy a couple of Ultras to justify all that effort. I imagine your next project will involve some of these:

Am sure I put some of them in.

hmmmm , last I remember is bringing them upstairs .

*bangs his head*

So thats where they were all the time.

Can i ask a question ??

I will anyway, Kudos for the build looks awesome btw .. but why that case ?

[nope]

I like the Xclio case. Its easy setup and its plenty storage space.

I loved the case from day one and I have 6 hardives in my case with a total of 2.5Tb.



rearranged the pipework



I have kandlaf case and would have done that but HDD sotrage space isnt all that in there. Well not ready built anyway , I would have had to mod it.

It does give plenty of room to work with :-)

Have you got CPU overclocking results yet mate?

[nope]

I played crysis at 1080p max res so i know I am pushing the card and check the temps. Idle is 37c and load is 40c , that cant be bad. I cant see it do that if I had one rad. So all of these guys who tell me it doesnt make a differnece I think they are wrong.


That pic is a full 1080p res and has been scaled down for the forum.



Thats on idle , see the differnce of 2-3c . I dont think I would have got that if I used one rad.


I am going to try the cpu over clock and see what the idle to load temps are like on it. On the cpu loop there is only one rad and 3 blocks on it. I expect the load and idle tmep diffenc to be about 8-10c and not like the gpu loop where i had two rads and quicker dissipation which led to 2-3c idle to load difference.

[nope]

So here are the orhos load results on the CPU.

Now on this the difference from idle to load is higher than what we saw on the Gpu.






In the future will like to try one loop on one component.

I think if you run two instances of Orthos it maxes all 4 cores

[nope]

I tried two instances . Things went dead slow . The temps are as they are shown in the pic. Now I feel i should have left the SB with a Heatsink . Wasnt worth putting it on the loop. Its best to have one loop per component if you can. Its a lot of money but hey its for peple who have it. I dont but I do wish to try it if I can one day. I am not rich I have a crap car and good components

Slowly start gathering all the components I will need in time for Deneb or nehalem. Hopefuly try it on that core. The boards are suppose to be digital by then so you wont need no cooling for the board s , only for the GPu and the CPU and matbe the ram. So three loops.

It looks wonderful !

[nope]

This is how my whole setup looks . Sorry about the mess . Its not usually like this but at the mo I am doing some database work so there are a lot of a4 papers around . The 40" is perfect for using Excess



Thanks guys for all the positive comments. I have people telling me I wasted money on this but I think it was a investment and its something I made which makes it even more worth than it seems.

I had two 8800GTX's before this and I sold them both and got this kit , also bought a 8800gt and a 3870. I had to add another £200 -£300 on top but it was worth it.

[nope]

[nope]

Since its my bday today my wife is being more supportive of my mod and has cleaned up my area for better pics , so here they are


Looks way better now.

[nope]

mild overclocking

[Disturbedguy]

nice watercooling setup!

wish i had the ability time and money to OC and water cool lol
