watercooling the main computer - Page 2

rhino56 · 03-17-2007, 04:42 AM

booted it up and everything is working fine, i still have a ways to go with it but my temps are terrific, my NB is a bit high compared to the water cooled points but it doesnt move much under load.
very happy with the temps overall the 2 pumps make a world of difference compared to one d-5. my temps only go up like 2 to 4 c from no load to full load.

the 33C is the probe on the hottest spot i could find on my raptors. it just says cpu or vga because it doesnt know what its monitoring. i can get by with only one fan on the water system just fine.

i epoxied 2 pieces of wood onto the front frame to mount it. crude but effective. i had to cut some shelves froma particle board cheap thing i got. im so limited with tools and stuff right now i had to use a hand saw to cut the wood.

i also modified and mounted my antec true control II face plate to go into the frame. it turned out very well and fits just right.
