water cooling a system?
 
anyone ever done it here? im looking for the cheapest easyest way to do it. I mainly just want to cool my cpu & my video card. I would probly do it myself but I dont have anything that would work very well as a rad (well other than a car rad but that would look very ghetto biggrin:)

save your money, just buy some more fans and shit.

Heatercores from cars actually outperform radiators. You would do better if you use it. Just give it a quick paint job and you have a top of the line radiator.

As for the rest, I could never recommend an 'all-in-one' water cooler due to their abysmal performance. Most of the them perform worse that highend air coolers. I'm not sure what is cheap to you... but you can get a Maze4 CPU block and a Maze4 GPU block for about $30 each from Danger Den. Then you just need a good pump (Danner Mag 3 is one of the best and it's cheap), some tubing, and clamps. Probaly cost you about $80 if you use your car radiator.

Yeah "emo" has a lot to do with me not signing into a chat program, gg. Im not signing in cause i can;t be bothered signing in, nothing to do with your little "emo" label.

Arkan 07-12-2004 11:14 PM

I dunno, there's something about electricity and water in the same place that gives me concern. I'll stick with fans, thank you very much.

I used to say exactly the same thing, but the tubes are pretty thick. And theyre usually pretty easy to install. Had mine up and running inside 10 minutes.

Id love to know wtf is up your ass, cause i have msn doesn;t mean im under some kinda fucking obligation to sign in, i'll sign in if i want and when i want. And at the moment i don;t want to sign in. As for your little "emo" label, sorry but i don;t recognise the american\canadian routine of stereotyping everyone into some little group so doesn;t mean much to me. nag:

Just a thought....how much quieter are they compared to fans? My system isn't loud by any means but i'm curious as to the benefits of water-cooling.

A lot quieter to say the least. Cpu temps drop quite a bit as well.

Arkan 07-12-2004 11:21 PM

Well, i guess if you do alot of over-clocking, water cooling maybe the way to go.
