Hey guys I have been having some trouble finding two part of my water system. I need a flow meter to connect to a fan connector so I can get bios shutdown in case of a water flow failure and a power on system for the pump so when the pc is turned on the pump will come online as well. Any source you guys know of that sells these parts?

Here is what you looking at for the pump (http://www.cooltechnica.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=C&Product_Code=SPKFE&Category_Code=SWS) As for a flow meter like that I've never seen one.

Doesn't your mobo have a shut down at certain temp option? I think most boards do, just use that. Seems that flow meter will hinder flow a bit.

yeah I guess you are right.. the temp wont run away too fast cause that DangerDen 3 i got is so damn much copper. Well thanks for the advice.

I have unplugged my pump while the system is on, it heats up fairly quick, but I have the bios set to shut down at 60C, and it does.

I use an abit and it shuts down at 60c the lowest but my prob is that is is not an on-chip sensor so it does not respond real quick. I hate that they dont do that!! the biggest flaw in Abit boards...
