how much water in a wc setup?

[Waffles]

how much water is used in a wc setup? i was thinkin if it wasn't too much i might just get fluid xp instead but... yea. how much? btw.. here is my setup idea:

2x black ice micro 80mm rads ( i only have 80mm fans in my case )

Danger Den CSP-MAG 12 Volt Pump Danger Den CSP-MAG 12 Volt Pump

Tygon 3603 Tubing 3/8" ID 5/8" OD i'm guessing about 10' of it?

Danger Den Dual 3 1/2" Floppy Bay Reservoir

Copper TDX Block for Athlon64 754/939/940

arctic ceramique

does it sound ok to you guys?

i mean like.. how much water do you use in a water cooling setup.. like a measurement. is it relly that complicated?

like i said. it depensd on your w/c size. fill the resivoir, start the pump, and keep fillin slowly till its full. of course the PC parts themselves would be out of the case.

this way the water starts to flow through the tubes pushing air out as they go, and keep filling to its full. once its full, let it run for 24/7 for leak tetsing. then come back and fill it a bit more (as all the air will be out and the water level will drop)

i know how to fill one.. that's not what i'm asking.. and given that i use the above system, i was just asking for an estimate because i'm kinda nervous about pouring water into my case. therefore, i thought that if it was like 32 oz or less.. i'd just use fluidxp

TBQH I have no much water that system would take... every system differs due to the size of the loop and what components are in it. I can't even tell u how much mine takes.

To put it into a crude example it takes about 5-6 inches of fluid from a standard size pitcher to fill my system.

I'd say 1 1/2 Litres.

You're setup is very similar to my old one.
