lol u comp. geeks. I would love to have the knowledge to understand that shit

[xTHExBOSSx46]

nice rig man. looks like u and i are using the same mobo. asus m2n32 sli premium?. what all are you running?

[LuGie]

I'm not the only geek on here with water cooled

comp. Nice setup, how was the step from a 120 rad to a 220?

[90G60]

Should have went with the twelve hundred. I liked the nine hundred, but since the twelve came out I think I am going to go that route.

 

Nice setup though. I have always thought about going the water cooling route.

[El Karacho1647545492]

fuckin sweet man. now just get a fucking sweet 22" LCD and your shit will be primo.

 

 

looks like you got a vid card that could handle it

[unfunnyryan]

Nice case! Although I'm sad that you god rid of an antec. Oh well, coolermasters are great cases too. I have a antec p182 my self. Love it. Heavy as hell though. Big power supply and 4x hard drives (raid 10 yay!) dont help.

[TheHaze]

Sweet setup. Here's my case: Click

 

The fans are large to make me feel better about myself.

 

<< Air-cooling nerd.

[Linc5.0]

LOOOOOK OOOOOUUUT!!!Theres a RAVE in you computer.

[Chadz89GTA]

Nice looking rig, stats on the pc? Which waterblock etc.. Also which cpu etc.. I'm looking into doing a ghetto wc setup with mine btu can't justify it as I'm doing on air what people are doing with water on these 775 cpu's.

[Orion]

what are you going to do with the old 900 case? i was actually, going to go pick one up today.

 

just got a whole bunch of new toys to put in it.

[BIGGU]

Thanks for the comments guys. from the step up from the single 120 single pass to the 2x120 dual pass i actually didnt get much of a change untill i put load on the computer. i also have the pump going pretty slow atm so i can probably turn it up. from the single to the dual i dropped a good 5 degrees and the computer idles at a constant 30 degrees Celsius. on full load doing some load testing it will run at 33 degrees.

Danger Den TDX for AM2

Danger Den D5 pump (varible speed)

Chadz89GTA : ill have my old radiator up for sale soon if you want it. Danger Den X-Flow Black Ice Xtreme ill sell it for $25 still in good shape no bent fins ETC:

 

Orion: the old case is for sale. $50 for it. it is missing the CD vent covers (no problem if you have 2 cd drives or go water cooled, got 2 holes in the back where my watercooling lines went through and one of the drives has a stripped out thumb screw no issue if you just put a bigger screw in.

[Rally Pat]

It seems like you only had that 900 for a week lol

[Orion]

anyone feel like talking about the finer points of overclocking?

[Chadz89GTA]

http://www.ocforums.com If your making a real rig get an Intel, sorry for all the AMD Fanboys as I was once one myself, but my q6600 at 3.6ghz stomps most if not all these fancy new named AMD's they've been coming out with lately. Another forum to join would be forums.anandtech.com alot os useful information there.

very true, amd really cannot compete with intel anymore and i foresee amd going out of business soon unless they fix their act. my next major upgrade in the computer will be

 

motherboards im undecided but im looking at

asus Maximus Extreme

asus Maximus II Formula

Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450 Yorkfield 2.66GHz

 

just undecided at the moment for when i upgrade. ill probably upgrade once i fry this cpu(i want to see how far i can over clock it till it goes)

[90G60]

I am going to be posting some Watercooling parts on Ebay, probably Monday of next week if anyone is thinking about going that route. Other than that if you are in need of some parts check out some of my listings. With the steady decline of our economy and Ebay's ever changing policies, most parts are selling at about half of retail cost, and most everything is brand new sealed in the box. Again, I don't make commission, so I do not benefit from anyone buying this stuff. Everyone likes a good discount.

I just dont get this shit....

 

So whats the temp of the PC with water cooling. My brother runs no water and is running at 17c with a tri-fans...

 

He told me my business computer is running at 30c which is like 86f

[nyall86]

Water cooling scares me....

[Slimpsy1647545505]

Nice clean setup and rig =)

I also am willing to bet your brothers pc isn't overclocked to hell and back. My Quad qould run stock at 17c all day long, as soon as I bumped it to 3.6ghz it jumped to around 50ish, BIG difference. If I had water my temps woulda been ALOT lower.
