I finally got all of my watercooling gear ready to set up and run. This is my FIRST setup and it is going to be watercooled.
I will start putting it together on Monday. I will definetly post pics of it when its all done and stuff.
Stats are as follows:
Swiftech MCP655-B™ 12 VDC Pump Without speed controller
D-Tek Fuzion Cpu Waterblock
R-3400 Black Tygon Tubing (7 Feet)
Swiftech MCRES-Micro
Swiftech MCR320-QP-K Triple 120mm Radiator
Distilled Water
Iodine
Algae Be Gone (Fish Tank Stuff)
Ok so now for the questions:
1. What order for the setup for the best cool? (Radiator > Block > Reservoir > Pump?)
2. How to fill the loop corretly? (adding water, etc)
3. How to bleed the loop ?
4. How do you know when the loop is full?
5. Pump connects to power supply, how do I run it so that I can fill up the loop.
If their are any other comments about how to do anything or tips that would be great. I want this to be an easy process.
Thanks everyone!
Oh and if I have to remount my waterblock, their isn't really a way I can take the mobo plate out and do it since the loops is all connected right? Is the best way to mount the block with the mobo plate in the case?? or should I take mobo plate out, mount it, then connect the tubes?
1 more thing, what to clean my cpu with? I have as5 on it right now. what is good for cleaning it off?
