Water cooled P.c

[iPhoneAppReviewer]

Looks like a hamster cage.

[mustanggtxps3]

why'd you get a transparent case? looks nasty

[aires410]

ugly..

[timjamesmackenzie]

@aires410 MAybe you could be more specific about what you dont like th looks of. Is it the pipes or the radiator. I thought the radiator was ugly too

[velocityredspeed]

Haha gogogo6119 you make me laugh. Look HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[timjamesmackenzie]

@velocityredspeed He/She made me laugh as well. Clearly the video represents one of my hobbies.

[MrRoughsex]

those tubes seemed to have a lot of air bubbles

[timjamesmackenzie]

@Identify597 drink it? not sure. try it and let me know.

[crouchingtiger1000]

what water cooling system are you using

[timjamesmackenzie]

AS it states in the description, a gigabyte galaxy II

[timjamesmackenzie]

Quite an intresting comment if you read between the lines. 1. We all have hobbies which we spend time on and are proud of.

2 At the time I owned a pc storeand had acess to many parts and had the time and tools to make this,

3, THE INTRESTING PART. Now that I dont have time/tools/parts. MY pc (although sprayed in camo) is quite ordinary.

4. PC building WAS my life so I think Im excused. I expect the people at my local model store to have models and Mike from Mikes bikes to have a bike.

@timjamesmackenzie

I hate people who tell you to get a life. You know most people who tell you to get a life are just jealous and don't have a life of their own.

Just ignore them.

[folken692000]

@timjamesmackenzie Wow, he trolled you good. Idiots like that are just looking to get people to justify their activities by taking a shit on them to see if you respond. Don't bite, it feeds into his dementia.

You can bet he's at home WISHING he had a custom rig, otherwise why would he even be viewing this in the first place. "Penis envy"?... no, "PC envy" if you ask me.

Nice machine btw.

[Str8pipedRanger]

@gogogo6119 I am quite impressed.

[qv9r8n]

@gogogo6119 You're just a fat faggot wich can't find his hobby..

[pancakezombie13]

@gogogo6119 you jelly?

[biaop1]

@gogogo6119 You should be embarrassed.

[fordlightning]

I have the same PC case' expect i bought the blue plexi glass one :) i've got a full thermaltake watercooling in mine.

[Darkpctech]

nice man :DDDD

check out my channel "Darkpctech"

[MatthewDavison89]

hi im getting ready to custom make a pc never used water cooling just need to know it is just plain water or something more?

[timjamesmackenzie]

The water usually comes suplied with the kit. If not go to thewatercoolingshop.co.uk

they have a section on coolants and adatives. lots of colours to choose from.

[MatthewDavison89]

@timjamesmackenzie thanks :)

[haze656]

@MatthewDavison89 dont listen to anyone just plain tap water works great! or beater

[azyndragon89]

@haze656 Tap water isn't good for your loop. Distilled water with some form of biocide + colored tubing is the way to go.

[nahylkathyse]

i went to a pc store wit my dad and the guy who sold us a pc case said that his water cooled pc was actualy starting to slow down and sometimes locked up.

another person had some sort of leakage from it and mest up entire inside.

[timjamesmackenzie]

water cooling simply replaces the fans. To have someone say his pc is slowing down and feezing cannot be blamed on the cooling. It would be a windows problem. If the person who said this works in a pc shop 1. it wouldnt suprise me if it was pc world . 2. he doesnt know a thing about pc's. 3. his relative was killed by someone who makes water ooling so he's making stuff up so you dont buy it. . 4. again he knows nothing about pc's , set up water cooling but it wasnt flowing.

[timjamesmackenzie]

furthermore in my time making pc's ive had one water cooling failure with a slight leak. On the other hand Ive had hundreds of fan problems. They are extremely efficiant and safe.

[nahylkathyse]

that is definatly beast.

the only thing is i heard that some were having dificulties with their water cooled pc :/ not to make it sound wrong it actualy sounds intresting and makes me think about it.

[timjamesmackenzie]

what kind of problems?

[Nacamidezang]

That's a BEAST OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG HOW MUCH ?

[timjamesmackenzie]

I got lucky with the parts and got most part exchange so only cost me about 200 overall. As I type its in pieces donating parts to my new pc which as I type I can report it works !>

[stamosgang]

ok.

[stamosgang]

so...the only thing u put is water??

[timjamesmackenzie]

use google. You put gold dust in it to lubricate the organic pump. Feed the fish twice a week or they wont swim as fast and the water flow drops.

[stamosgang]

is this safe??

[timjamesmackenzie]

of course.!!

[iceman86694]

Cool Style but... Damn noice you got there! ;)

[shorerydr10]

man i have like the same acrylic case!!!

[Liquadia]

why is there a fan on the cpu block

[timjamesmackenzie]

There is no fan on the cpu block, the fan below the black power supply is on the back of the case.

[Liquadia]

@timjamesmackenzie ookay! cause the one i am looking at has a fan on the cpu

[timjamesmackenzie]

Well bieng the person who built this and displayed this video I must deduct you are watching a diffrent video. I can clearly see the cpu block with its cross pattern silver metal bracket.! Defo no fan on any cpu block in this vid

[Liquadia]

isnt this the Gigabyte water cooling something galaxy! I been offered 2 of these for £30 only problem is one is incomplete! i can make use of 2 radiators 1 pump as the second pump has no power cable for it? are these any good?

[timjamesmackenzie]

yeah its the galaxy II . Id buy them both for 30 quid any day. Make a double radiator system with lots of piping. You could be quite inventive with the layout. Let me know how you get on.

[Liquadia]

@timjamesmackenzie I dont know if I could bring my self to buying them lol im Terrified of leaks! can i get non conductive water and how do i know it is Non Conductive that iam buying

[timjamesmackenzie]

In the ten years Ive been building pc#s ive only ever known of one leak. I think like this ; Gigabyte is a very big company. They wouldnt release a water cooled product that has the remotest chance of leaking under normal conditions.

[DLSSLIM]

how offen do you have to refill it???

[timjamesmackenzie]

Read the instructions , but it is a sealed system so in theory the answer is never. I change her once a year as the colour on the pipes fade in sunlight.

[7Gkar7]

Is there any noise with this kind of cooling ?

And can it leak ... i mean can it Fry your pc if something goes wrong ?

[timjamesmackenzie]

its very quite. you can get rid of all case fans and make it deadly silent. when the pc is booting up the radiator fan does mak a noise but reduces to minimum when windows drivers load. As for leaks.. Ive only ever known one to have a drip in ten yers of building them. Due to the positioning it just dripped down onto the bottom of the case and not onto anything.

[bobbysam232]

I like the blue my favourite colour btw

whats your processing speed?

[timjamesmackenzie]

its a dual core 3.2 . 4 gig ram , two 7800 gt's in sli , 3 hard drives data,games,op , and a soundblaster audigy.

[bobbysam232]

3.2 ghz?

mine is a

Pentium 4 3.6 ghz... Uhh .. something wrong there

(not overclocked)

[timjamesmackenzie]

pentium d 3.2 , not overclocked. nothing wrong there

[DJDAMO93]

nice and loud

[timjamesmackenzie]

indeed, but when the o/s booted up the gans shut down to minimum. It was pretty much silent, i even took the case fans off.

[baloche94]

more water please...

[bukbuktube]

can life get any more exciting

[mognovox]

i have the same case but blue its good for airflow

[kurogane2x]

EPIC.....

[Lordcampi30]

baad!

[oggyogog]

how is the galaxy water cooling kit? i just bought one off Craigslist for 20 bucks and i wanna hear some good reviews about it :D

[timjamesmackenzie]

its great and reliable, cools up to 30 degrees more than fans

[silver760]

If that was mine id fir some check valves up at the radiator so the system doesnt have to prime itself everytime you turn it on.

[timjamesmackenzie]

it just primed itself like that as it was the first fill up, when its full its all good.

[Baraquiel62]

I´d buy a new monitor

[timjamesmackenzie]

the old monitors were used as it was in the testing station of my old pc shop.

[Meatbizzall]

looks more like a methlab then a computer :)

[SysAdmin86851]

i never bothered screwing around w/ water coolers, too much maintenance and hassle,

i use thermal electric just as effective & no bs

;actually thermal electric make water coolers obsolete

[timjamesmackenzie]

Good call. I got a new pump and wired it in, But then i just went back to fancy fans and lights cos te water was a hassle and made the pc wiegh a tonne.

[InvokeZero]

I don't know why you'd be moving a computer that is liquid cooled around a lot. That's what a mATX tower in a cube-design is for. Towers cooled with a LCS aren't meant to be moved around a lot.

[Watsy1958]

So you want a low maintenace water cooling system with no hassle at all and you never have to worrie about air locks...Try the zallman restorator v2 makes no noise at all and i can dump the water a 100 times and never get a air lock only noise you here in my rig is when my daul raptor harddrive start up rather then that NO noise

[PATSCATSWALES]

couldy you use antifreee same pretty coulor lol

[spidermohmd1]

how much is the gigabyte galaxy now

[Theben0987]

you can get blue red black, loads of different ones, just for looks really.

[elnicobbb]

nice;)

[timjamesmackenzie]

Sorry I havent checked all the comments in a while, thanks for all of them. I dont use the cooling anymor since the pump broke, it does make a diffrence . The fans are making it run at 15 degrees hotter but still under control. Im going to get a new pump as soon as i can.

Tim

[TheLittleWorldofGaz]

sweet i got to get my new build looking that good :)

[Marron077]

would that be costly? im getting a new gamer pc, i want a good 1

[InvertedMonster]

you dont really need this fluid, that is unless you live in a hot environment, have minimal amount of airflow, or play for more than a couple hours at a time...

[brandonsexywhitaker]

dont do watercooling if your a noob

just get a good heatsink if your worried about temps

[KeyAttendant]

@brandonsexywhitaker I got watercooling and didn't do any research whatsoever. Just looked at the reviews, compared the prices, and bought this kit. Works fine. You don't need to be a genius, despite popular belief.

[araz1994]

do you ever have to change the blue stuff he put's it in?

[3litr3]

Hardly ever. Besides it's not that expensive. I just change mine once a year.

[areyouben02]

Its a great idea and all.....but what happens if you spill some water on your motherboard and everything else you have in there......pretty risky!!

[Himom2032]

Its a special type of fluid (not water) that isnt conductive to electricity, so it wont ruin your parts if there does happen do be a leak.

[Himom2032]

To, not do.

[joachimk93]

agree

[ItsjustagameNUB]

Haha! You need to be ready to fill more water in cause its sucking all in the tank!

[yugiohk]

cansome one answaer this i have a mrotherbroad wid 2 cpus installed the 3.16ghz one but as its going to be fast do i have to get 2 water cooling systems

[CRAKIZGOOD]

no u dont

[Beatles219]

NO but you will need to get 2 water blocks 1 block for each processor.

[Pauninggio]

Beautiful!

[deadrisingluke666]

do you have to keep refilling the water on water coller ones?

[Xhris000]

Hey man , lovely , i have a Sunbeamtech 9 Bay Acrylic case , it is nice as yours man , see ma vid

[peppoj]

hahaha!

[urbtree]

i`ve just had one of these cases imported from france but i modded it a bit. my vids on here some where. nice build dood

[sucmurko]

hi hva the same case. cool case man

[laptopman222]

thats well cool (lol get it )

[Makedonce93]

lol dude i got scared when you put that power cord in lol :D I LIKE your pc :D

[playsmartplay]

Get a swiftech

[BoY860]

wow just notice this pump and resavour tank are oftly big could you tell me the dimensions of them please

[BoY860]

is this model water cooling kit worth buying ? does it work good i wanna get better cooling for my AMD x64 x2 6400+

[Hoodeddeathman]

Hi im considering of buying this cooler kit but i was wondering, is the pump/resovoir mounted at all or is it just loose?

[samanthms123]

which water cooling system did you use?

[endlezz]

thats gigabyte galaxy watercooling kit

[chinkmerkin07]

da ting is dat havin a acrylic top bock has more ov a chance leaking, dats wot most computer stores told me.

[timjamesmackenzie]

agreed but stick to well known makes and your chance of a leak is very low.

[williamlong1985]

hey i need help, ok so i went ahead and got the nvidia 680i black pearl edition, waited ages for it to come. it comes pre installed the all the blocks for water cooling. i have a 8800 gt graphics card with water cooling.. my knowlede is good with computers but not great with water cooling. can anyone tell me what i need to do next? like buy a water oump radiao etc

[timjamesmackenzie]

sorry for slow reply, i buy my water cooling in kits, stick to well known makes and you cant go wrong.

[chaosbl4de]

how much did this cost to put together and all the parts and such?

[timjamesmackenzie]

buy it in the shops around £900 - £1000. I worked in a computer shop (always go to the local guys cos we gfet stuff cheaper and know more) I must admit I did some very good deals and some how only spent £150. part ex's and jobs resulting from, all managed to make me enough money to buy it all without spendin my own money.

[chaosbl4de]

thats aweomse :]

[swazidoughman]

thats one ugly case imho

[cona00]

Yeh i dnt like the clear acryllic ones

[timjamesmackenzie]

I think that theres no point having cool components if you cant see them, it also encouraged me to wire it and built it neater than I ever have.

[swazidoughman]

well i guess its just diffrent strokes fer diffrent folks ;D

[disposablexhero]

what kind of temperatures are you getting with this? I've been thinking about purchasing one.

[timjamesmackenzie]

30 - 35 very cool, twice the cooling as fans.

[disposablexhero]

very nice. thanks for the info.

[NitrousSpeed]

i mean the radiator

[NitrousSpeed]

is it safe to put the galaxy's pump on top?

coz the manual says it should be at the back.

[timjamesmackenzie]

the radiator can be anywhere as long as its can work propaly, ie it can disperse the heat.

[NitrousSpeed]

ok, thanx. I already bought mine, havent installed it though

[ultimamods]

i hope you put more fluid in there once it is running because it is not good to not have the res full while its going

[timjamesmackenzie]

that was first fill so the res empties itself as it pumps the water around, it then stops (safety cut off cos its low) and i continue untill its all full

[torsteinator]

wtf happens?

[timjamesmackenzie]

bit of a general question, do you mean why did it stop? , the water was only in the reservoir. When it was switched on it pumped the water through the pipes, this made the water level drop in the resevoir and it switched off for safety. Then you keep filling it untill the whole system including the res has water and it no longer powers down. I hope this answeres your question.

[torsteinator]

it does. Thanks
