Hi,

im sort of a rookie when it comes to liquid cooling. ive used a thermaltake big cooling system for a year or so, though i have added a diff resivour(10gallon fish tank) and a new pump(ViaAqua1300).

But i got a mini fridge given to me, and i was going to put my water resivour(obviously not the fish tank ;) ) in it and run the tubes out the side and into my pc, but on the stat sheet for my pump which says it runs at a 6feet head 70GPH.
does that mean if i have 6 feet of hose it will only run at 70GPH?
im not sure how long my hose will be once i get it all setup, because i am going to make my own little radiator type thing just out of some copper tubing about 12 inchs long then that will tie into the resivour.

i will be replacing my CPU water block with a 1/2" one.

well if you can understand what im saying, please let me know if this will work or not :)

No, that is not what the head means. I would suggest that you start reading some of the water cooling stickies since they explain it.
