Default watercooling gone mad - 04-26-2007, 10:52 AM

Just seen pics of this pc on the hardocp forum, this guys mad.

Watercooling on the cpu, both gpu's, northbridge, southbridge, pwm circuitry, even on the ram. eek:

Quad core 2.66ghz @ 3.66 ghz.

Thats one assload of a lot of pipes and cables he has to move if anything ever fucks up on the mobo. The company thats building it for him (avadirect) already had to replce a faulty 8800gtx and the motherboard.

Looks pretty happy: though.

Sure, it's neat and all, but it still won't get your cock sucked.

Sweet Silverstone case, TJ09 right? In regards to the leaks issue senor Fluff if you do it right you should minimize the risk of leaks. Most folks test the system before they stick it on their hardware as well. I've had leaks before and it didn't do any irreparable damage. Here's something I did a while back, nothing as nice as the system referenced above:

Most of my systems were watercooled as well, p4 3.2@ 4ghz with a hydrocool 200ex, then my opteron 165 @ 2.8 with a 3d-galaxy cooling setup (swiftech water block).

The above system was really good but the dfi motherboard was a fucker to work with. Worst thing was the jackofs at dfi released a few bios revisions, then realised they couldn't sort out the glitches and just dropped support for it. rolleyes: Almost a $400 motherboard. oOo:

Watercooling is ok if setup properly, some of the more basic systems like the corsair nautilus are really quick and simple to setup.

Be nice to watercool this shuttle but impossible because of the dual slot video card, don't want to take lumps out of the case either to fit it.
