I’ve been lurking around these forums for quite a while and have now finally done something (hence Reflex Action) and here its is:
Water cooling bits:
CPU: Cathars G4
GPU: SwiftTech MCW50
Pump: Hydor L30 II
Passive radiator: 12 * 1/2m 15mm copper pipe
Active radiator: XSPC R120-D http://www.xspc.biz/r120d.php with 2 * panaflo 120mm M1A
Tubing: XSPC ½” ID ¾” OD
T for draining Y for filling/bleeding
3 pairs of colder quick disconnects
The loop
The two rads and pump are mounted in/on a box that goes under the main case.
It’s made from parts of a drawer from an old cupboard.
The small white blocks in the gaps between the pillars are magnetic catches that are used to hold cupboard doors shut, here they will hold plastic panels in place so you can’t see in the box but its easy to get at the insides.
Leak testing the radiator box. Far right is the drain point. In the foreground on the left is the bleed point for the passive rad.
Different angle
This is a view from the back of the box (the pump is at the front). The idea is the hot air from the active rad comes out of here.
more to come..
