I was thinking of building my own resovir with a pump. I was looking at plastic junction box that has a rubber seal. But how much water should a resovir hold? The box looks very similar to the article on the main page called Gregs Watercooling Journey. This is my first time, but how much water :eek: ? I have no clue. And do I just fill the resovir or make sure the radiator is full as well. Thanks :)

LOL:D
sorry

the more the better, the more water their is, the more their is to heat,and the longer it has to cool before it is pumped through the block. the place i read it explained it "you cant heat the ocean"

That sounds like an old proverb. Good quote.

If your radiator is good, it really doesn't matter how much it holds. I just have a small section of tubing to fill and bleed the air out.

Unless you plan on having a gigantic open reservoir it absolutely does not matter what size it is. If you want a contained system (it all fits in your case) I would just get a junction box that will fit in your case. :)
