Hi guys,

finally finished building my first w/c system. Don't have digital camera so can't post pics but here are the results so far:

barton 2500+ at 2425 mhz at 1.85 vcore
radeon 9800 pro at 460 core and 385 mem (no mods yet)

the temps are 37 idle and 41 full load after about 4 hrs of prime95. Ambient temps are 25 C.

Just one quick question: I wanted to shorten a couple of tubes (cut them a little on the long side to be safe). Now my question is how do you guys who use a t-line empty your system of the water? I just wanted to know the easiest method.

I just take of the exit tube from the rad and blow all the water into a jug of some sort.

Those temps are very good, I personally empty my system at the pump connection which is the lowest point in my system, although I am trying to come up with something that will not break the seal( Like a valve) or something then you could try different fluids/mixtures with ease.

tnx for the quick reply guys.

Now do you use the pump or just blow on the end of the t-line with you mouth or just use gravity?

After unhooking it at the pump gravity will get alot, but not all so a little air through the T-line gets most of the rest.
