ok, I havent even made a water cooled rig yet, maybe over my winter break, but ive been reading everything i can find about it. Ive noticed over and over that people have to refill the towers all the time. Well If I went this route, this would have to be overcome. So I got to thinking and came up with this: The water that evaporates has to be condensed and put back into the system. Now I just came up with this so I dont really have any ideas on how to do it quite yet, but i do know this.. The condensed water has to be put into a separate "holding area" because it will be warmer than the water in the resevior. I'm not to sure how well this would all work, just wanted to throw it out there and let you guys go with it. If there was any other threads about this idea, lemme know - Id like to read it.

The picture shows a rough idea, notice the elbow going back into the tower, this would let it cool down a little before returning.

let me know what you all think.

That looks like a splendid idea. Of course, some water would be lost, but it would help. Also, finding something cool to condense the water is the next challenge.

I came up with this a few weeks back. I haven't made one yet as I don't have a system to use one on.
