View Full Version : 1 bong or 2
i am starting the designs for my clear case with a built in bong and i would like to hear people's opinions. shoud i use 2 bongs or will 1 be ok? info u will need to know: the bong(s) will be 2 feet high in a 2.5 foot high case (1/2 foot deep built in res at bottom). this will be cooling a cpu, a gpu, vid card ram, nb, and hdd. if i do 1 bong i will have 2 pumps in the res: 1 for the cpu loop and the other for the loop with everyting else. the 2 lines would combine at the top of the bong right before the shower head. if i did 2 bongs i would just devide the res in half and have a bong for each of the 2 loops.
what do you guys think? would 1 bong cool enuf or would another be needed?

are you crazy? half a bong would be more than enough :D why dual pumps? why not just go to cpu then split off to chipset and gpu instead of going series, go series parallel.
wanted to keep high flow throught he cpu block. water would be going through all those blocks and going 2.5 feet in height.
so i only need 1 bong then i guess

oh one other thing, you dont need a screemer on it! all you need is like 25cfm, maby not even that! when i used that large tub of water thing to cool my puter i used that and it kept it at room temp, thats like 1/100 of the surface are when using a bong...

Grim,
I have had some experience with built in bongs and I hope you don't plan on moving it a lot. My case was 24"x24"x8". The bong itself 4" diameter with a 3" "Y". When full and running the case weighed a ton. The single bong kept the 1.4 tbird cool with no problems. You could do a search in the forums for Obsidian Water God for more specifics.

yea i read your thread a while ago and man your case is awesome. i dont plan on moving it around at all its just gunna sit in my room.
hey how often do you have to refill with using just the bottom of your bong for the res?

That depended on what speed I ran the fan. Once a day at high speed and two to three days at half speed.
