hey man, i am planning a similar setup for my water cooling. i would like to know what kind/size of tubing you are using for the water block, and if you are needing to use any converters. and if you could tell me which block that is i would be very smiley :)
@DepthChargeBand Well i needed to convert the tubing when i neede to connect is to the pump. Other place where ok. I did make all my own connectors (except for the gardena couplings). I think the tubing diameter was 1 cm. This fits fine on (most) waterblocks. Using this Zalman block; Zalman ZM-WB5 Plus. Hope to see your postings online/youtube!!!
@Owerlanding458 I agree, if you check out my other vids (named "Motherboard WaterBlock Installed on Extreme Rampage 3") you would see that i have the full motherboard water cooled.
The GPU maybe in the future, but this not cheap.........that's my biggest issue now.
@legerstee1 From the looks of it you have already spent a lot you have a separate tower for the water cooling system, whats another 2 water blocks for the gpu's and some fittings and tube. I dont think its much. Nice work though I like the separate cooling system must make a lot more room in the computer and easier for upgrading and taking apart.
@EvironmentalistsEdge Yes......your right. But the external watercooling wasn't that much. Budgets are tight at the moment so maybe i will, but unfortunally not at the moment. THanks for your response
@Habeel13 Thanks! I'm saving up to make change to new GPU's but i need a eyefinity setup and on 3 times 1920x1200 resolution so......it must be fast ;-)
@masterbrice Yes mine does to. But the problem is it's not affordable. And i do have a life beside my PC for instance eating and other things that cost money. I think everybodies imaginaries rig looks better than this one. In the mean time what is your "un-imaginary" rig looking like?
I've got the gene version and i am not yet running on the controller since my i bought my ssd before the new sata came in, my cpu gets to 70 degrees which is quite high but on air cooling is fine since it never gets that high when running programs... when i get my ssd's (raid 60gb) ill see if mine is any different : \... and 45 degrees sounds awesome to me XD
@l15tm4n Well there is a design problem with the Marvell Controllers. They have a single PCIe 1x connection and that only support 500mb/s. So if you have the same then you will have the same problem. So don't buy any ssd drives that are faster tan 370mb/s(read) that's the limit that most people found having this controller. I'm now looking for a pcie 4x/8x controller.....just to get it all up to speed. Thanks shit Marvell!!! :-(
I tried but i think this batch wasn't a very good one. It's get really unstable above 4ghz. I've talked to a die hard overclocker (professional team of asus) and he told me that the chip itself can allready make a difference.
@legerstee1 yeah mine is at 1600mhz, know what you mean by the chip, heard a lot of people cant get it above 4ghz, also wondering how cold is the chip on full load and do you have hyper threading still on? i really want to do water cooling once i get the money together XD thanks
@l15tm4n Well i think because i also clocked the memory at 2000Mhz my temp are not that good. mostly around 45 degrees (celsius). Do you have the rampage extreme 3 of asus? because i just bought a vertex 3 and find out that the Sata 3 controller is terribly on the motherboard. Having only one(!) pcie lane (500Gb/s) and the vertex is faster then that!! Have to get a other controller.... :-s
But....i don't have the room for it. Best would be to move it outside, but i have to make a hole in the wall...not that good idea. The water temp never goes over 34 Degrees Celsius, so the burning is not a issue ;-)
You may want to move the radiator further for it to work more effective. Just saying. It dissipate the heat back into the computer. Some really hot radiators actually can burn wood and plastic.
And nobody asking for track name, what a fools, all you can is keeping asking for another guitar metal shit song like "Omg great song, track name please??" so , I'll be first - track name please :)
First of all the 920 is not the best one to overclock. I build a UNIVERSAL water cooling system. This is a thing build for future expension. And everybody seems to think this has cost a lot. It has cost me not that much!!!! only about 200 euro's. So this DOES has saved money. That's why i build it. I also wanted a super silent system and it currently makes almost no sound. ANd did you ever had a feeling "i have build that"? If you have than you can understand me me.........
@legerstee1 I just bought a 6950 and it runs great. I'm thinking of getting a waterblock myself... btw, I've always dreamed of doing what you've done, the car radiator thing. It's extreme man.
@demanasik please keep it English! And if you have comment about the overkill, I KNOW! I HAVE BUILD THIS WITH THE FUTURE IN MIND, EVER HEARD OF PLANNING AHEAD?
Well i've been interested in electronics/computers all my life. I only got into computer at around 1997. Water is always better than air, because is absorbes heat better. That's why cars have water cooling nowadays and not air (like in way past days!). There are better forms.....but this is the most handy ;-)
you obviously haven't seen my other video's. They whole motherboard is now watercooled. And i know it's a overkill. But it is a universal cooler. So i connect more than on Computer. Ever heard of planning ahead?
yay for the cosmos! my favorite case that i will never have lol.
oh and even though i know you have epic water cooling and stuff, i think you should tone that OC down to 3.8ghz. theres not really much gain from 3.8->4.0 and youll be happy that your computer will last a bunch longer than as if it was at 4.0 :)
And the HeatSpreader of Intel and the quality of the heat transfer from the Die to this headspreader.
I know this is a overkill, but i've got more connected now (see my other clips) than only the CPU . And in future maybe will the GPU's watercooled as well. Remember that i build this mainly to by silent. And almost can't hear it. And even with the "small" CPU waterblock with full use all evening (and when i would not add airflow the water heats up to 31 degrees (c).
@jakestweeker there is alot more than that, that goes into howe much heat is carried away from the CPU...Such as speed of fluid flowing over contact point inside WCblock, Viscosity of fluid, ambiant temp of fluid flowing in, distance of the return tube to heat exchanger from the CPU block...ETC ETC. With what he has in that case he could probably WC everything Mobo included if he gets better fans that move more CFM of air through the fins of the rad.
wow that watercooling is cool i thing im going to do that whit my computer too i have a RIB004020-rev1 server case 400 watt power suply 500gig western digital hdd asus p4pe-x motherboard 2x1gig ddr400 hyperx gehuegen 1.2ghzintel p4 whit hypertreathing running on turbo (2400ghz) gigabyte 7600gs agp
I gave you a like because you have good picture... videogame like commentary lol and music that is easy on the ears lol something i dont have to quickly turn it down when i view while working lol i was thinking of getting one of those 9 fan square radiators and mounting it on the side of my case.
well i stand corrected in my previous post :) i cant wait to see the other components wc'd and some wc'd graphics, but to tell you the truth its really amazing you got all of that to work.
How much pressure it being put on the cpu block? It might explode over time, just saying, also what are the temps on the cpu your cooling, thats what i really want to know
The (clamping) pressure of the waterblock on the CPU is not higher than the screws of the zalman attachtment screw allow me. So this should be ok.
I must say that the temps i got where somewhat disappointing. I think this has to do with the loss in temp conductivity between the CPU and the block. typical value on idle are 40 degrees. Full load on 4.1Ghz are 72 degrees (celsius). I will improve this in the future.
