Lottsa work on my rig today (pics)

[UnLoadeD]

I didn't want another cord coming from my computer so I decided to wire the pump into the PSU. I looked at relays and such but came up with a solution that met all my needs. I wanted to be able to run the pump while the computer was off also I wanted to be able to unplug the pump if needed. Lastly I wanted the computer not to be able to turn on if the pump was unplugged. Here's what I decided on.

This allows me to turn the pump on/off with the psu switch, this allowed me to fill and bleed the system pretty easily. I can unplug the molex connection to remove the pump if needed. If the molex is unplugged, the green wire going to the m/b is broken and won't allow the computer to be started. This mod was pretty easy to do and very cheap as I had all the parts laying around.

Next I got out my Spiral Wrap and Conformal Coating and did a nice mixing of the two.

After drying I did a test run with the UV CCFL's.

The backside had a pretty big hole from the Iceberg rad, I covered it with some tinted plexi. Depending on how my temps are when I've had it running for a while, I might mount a fan there.

Let's see how things look with a lil UV lovin.

Starting to look good. Got a few things left to do. Gonna replace the plexi on top and side cutouts with tinted. Stealth job for the burner/dvdrom combo. Gonna rearrange the lights a bit. Also after water system equalizes, I'll see if I need to add ear exhaust fan also I'll know if I have to open up the front end for more intake air to the rad. Right now with both fans running at 7v my temps are case=28C cpu=35C. A little bit higher than I was expecting, but I've got the original filter and filter cover on it. I know they restrict the flow pretty badly, so they are gonna be my first tweaks. Anyway, Ill post more pics and info as I go.

peace.

Nice, shouldnt ur temps be slightly lower? what WB did you use?

[UnLoadeD]

Well I don't really know how much faith I put in the temps. The m/b is fairly new and this is first time I've had it running in a case. Also first time I've had it water cooled. Once it gets a chance to settle in, I'll start o/cing and see if it'll go further. The block I'm using is Gemini Sandard Flow Rev.2

That is a really nice setup. If you don't mind I am going to "use" your idea to wire up my pump. Right now I have a wire coming out the back, and it gets in the way when I move the system around.

[EluSiOn]

Oh yeah... I almost forgot that UnLoadeD is the one who done that Vodka bottle resevior. LOL.... spyder how on earth you keep track this kinda things?

[UnLoadeD]

Maybe my avatar reminds him 8P~
Anyway the res was mainly an experiment, just to see if I could do it. I wasn't really comfortable using a liquor bottle anyway, as I haven't drank for almost 8 yrs. The res is sitting in one of my bins with lottsa other parts I have. I'll prolly get rid of it if anyone is interested.

[EluSiOn]

No! No! No!

You should sell it at the classified section! and one day it will be a collector's item, the vodka bottle reminds us UnLoaded
