Which res? (Updated! now with 50% more useless crap!)
*Edit* SCREW the res... crappy homemade waterblock pics somewhere below this line tho.. --->
Just started water cooling about a week ago to start with...
currently using this 10gal. plastic thinger from rite aid with 6 gallons of distilled/tap water.. with a coughrbx.. danner mag2(250gph).. unknown fake copper heatercore from napa with a 80mm and a 92mm wired to it..(120mm 90cfm fan ordered and on the way) planned on trying the "no radiator/heatercore at all" approach but guess not.
vs.
it's at least a 20 gallon though the pic sucks..
side..
so, wondering if the glass would help cooling the water enough to be worth switching?(think i'm looking for an excuse to tear everything apart so i can try different rbx nozzles too.. but) or should i just let our pet lizard have the 20-25 gallon all to him self.. because 6 gallons is prolly already overkill?..
system= 2.4b@2953 1.85v(i'm trying to kill it so i can get a 2.4c really i am.. even forgot to turn the pump on last night and it got up to 82C but still didn't die )1 gig 2700 crucial ddr.. 9800pro etc..
45c~ idle 49c~ load think my abit ic7 is full of .... tho.(had a slk947u before h2o and last i checked it was showing 48c idle 58c load at stock speed/volts no matter what fan i used on it.. or what kinda paste.. tried 3 including as ceremique. re-seated it many times..even tried taking the IHS off the cpu.. fun fun)
no "welcome to the forums" stuff either plz btw.. I registered over 2 years ago so i'm not a total nooblet(though this post could seem otherwise...) just a dumb*** that forgot his password and finally got cable..(aka new isp) kinda got off the topic a bit sorry.. I'll Stfu now.
