My Water cooling project (First build)!!

[Grov]

Hey guys, thought id share with you how iam getting on.

Ive fitted the heatercore and shroud/fans. It was a right game, but well worth it i think, looks pretty cool, and should give me excellent performance. I just hope it doesn't vibrate, ehehe.

Also screwed the pump to the floor, and got the Fillport in, looks well sexy. Gonna build the PC, and measure all the tubing up tomorrow.

What system are you going to put in there?

Hiya, thanks.

Erm the system is a 3700+, DFI NF3 250GB, 1 Gig OCZ, Asus X800XT PE, volt modded by viperjohn. Using Aqua 50Z, Maze 4 Acetal, 6002 Swiftech, Dual 302 heatercore Tygon 3603 and a T-Line/fillport, all in a Silverstone TJ05.

Iam just wondering where to put the t-line? Ive taken these 3 pics, with it in different places, where would be the best place:

Bearing in mind, iam gonna put 2 80mm fans above the memory, and 1 120fan over the video card, so i won't have much room around those areas. Near the floor, next to the pump would be easiest, but ive heard it's better higher up. is this just for bleeding? surely it would be better close to pump and video card, for less tubing length, and ease of installation. Pic 2 ain't really gonna happen i don't think, cause of bends.

Would appreciate everyones help with this, as this is all ive got to do.

The higher the better for bleeding (as the air goes to the highest point it can) I dont understand where 3 is going?

Still having some trouble with the t-line.

Here's is where ive got it, only place i can have it really, been told it's ok to have the fittings touch each other, but there is a fair bend in the tube?

What should i do?

That'll be fine mate - any air will escape up the tubing towards the fillport anyway.

yeah, thanks mate, i had it all up and sorted the other week, but then my mobo decided to go all funk on me, so iam waiting for another one.

Here are pics of it all done:
