almost done with it! [please read #18]
 

it's been about 3 weeks from last time i worked on my system at all...
just installed my new water tank, i just got the Thermal Take Aqua M3 1U Tank off ebay lol :laughing:
pic 1-14 are my system up to now..

pic 1 and 2 are the main part of the watercooler i am using the everything from that set

pic 3 is the new toy i just got it's a tank made by ThermalTake looks kinda cool and i can put a HELL LOT MORE water in it now lol

pic 4 is the thermal compound the only Korean thing i will ever put my hands on well... Zalman stuff...

pic 5 is my Q6600 G0 lapped nicely

pic 6 is the extra liquid that came out of the stock Coolermaster system..
can i or can i not mix coolermaster water and Thermaltake water in one system?

pic 7 is the water i put in the system... seems like it's just stander drinking water, there is nothing in it, is that good for the system or not?

pic 8 is just a closer look of the tank

pic 9 the water flower

pic 10 is the in and out put connection of the tank, very bentable :thumbsup:

pic 11 and 12 is this a good idea? cuz the the thing will not fit around it

pic 13 you see how on the black tub there is a thing around the end, but on the green one there is not one on it [will not fit]

pic 14 that's just a extra water block that came with the system and just sitting by my 80mm fan, it keeps IT cool :D not really sure if that helps or not, it seems like it did

what do you guys think?
i really think i need another bigger water readitor, and a hell alot stronger pump in my system

Question is....... Does it suit your purposes?

personally i don't think it did much, with out a better water block
and also a RADIATOR
but working on this thing just makes me happier

watercooling is fun...until you find out..LN2 is so much more fun :D

Kiki, if you can find an old a/c unit that someone is throwing away or doesnt want anymore, you can convert it into your water=cooling plans and supercharge the cooling portion of your plans.

A quality pump would be needed to move the coolant around at sub-zero temps, insulation prep on the mobo but you'lre gonna get much better results. ;)

If your having fun than it's worth it. :thumbsup:

+1 Homebrew chillers rule. You probably need clamps on the green tubes. :thumbsup:

old ac got it!


but how can a water cooling system with fan and air become sub zero temp? i have always wanna ask that

i am happy when i am overclocking... :laughing:
until i can't improve and keeps trying and trying for 8hrs and staying at the same place it's just like WTF DUDE!
but yeah i love been here i love working on my computer and car or anything that's gonna keep me working lol


loved the shit outta my x but now it's only my x </3

To go sub-zero takes a good bit of modding.
You pretty much need to dismantle the old a/c unit in question and put the evaporator in a cooler, and put the rad (or rads) in the cooler with it, and then fill with distilled water/antifreeze or whatever concoction Kal came up with worked well too..

Porting the a/c air directly through the rads or h/s helps, but I only got to zero with the machine off.
