What sort of fittinga did you use? And whats the diameter of the tubing?
I fell in love with your setup, so i have to build wc like that in my rig :p
 
Just only the motherboard is already around 600Euro.......
650 dollA......

is it around $6k in total?
650 mobo
400 case
2000 cpu
2000 gpu
500 storage
500 cooling
+ every thing else = about $6000-$7000
really expensive but for a 25+ working person it isn't that much tbh
 
Disaster! one of the pumps has literally popped out of the top on my SR2!! Seems Koolance struggle to machine two threads that match,the pump shroud wiggles in the threads and just lets go!

Thanks to ninja reactions and the 3 cups of coffee earlier i whipped out the power before it flooded everything,thank christ i put the pumps in the rad bay underneath or this could of got expensive.

identical issue.

Koolance is now on my poop list.

Cant even RMA them as i have painted the mounts and shroud,thankfully Specialtech just offered to sponsor me 2 of the new rev 2 model.

This is why ST are the only guys to go with for watercooling gear.

Not the best morning,i was looking forward to some 1440p BF3.........


SpecialTech to the rescue!!

You can clearly see the difference in the pump mounting compared to the rev 1.

The new top just bolts in the traditional manner rather than the screw in shroud method.

The tops are different dimensions tho so im going to have to ditch the copper between the pump and res and go with a bit of black tube instead....otherwise it means re doing the res mount and generally more trouble than its worth.

Thanks again to Specialtech,who came thru for me in a very tight situation.
 
That was a close call, luckly you put pumps in the bottom chamber of the case. Very nice of Specialtech to provide rev.2 model, now you can build the loop back up and play your game of BF3 :D
 
A bit more work done on the front panel...im debating as to putting another LED strip in the top so the light fades down also..
