Modular

Quick project I threw together last week.

My goals were pretty simple, I needed a water cooling system that was compact, powerful, and modular. "Modular?" You ask...well, I want to be able to easily change out water blocks depending on the system I'm benching. Whether doing prelim testing with a new CPU, or benching multiple GPUs with the CPU on LN2. This was not designed to be used as a permanent setup, or to be installed in a case.



























So, I'll be able to hang this outside my window in the winter and bench with great cooling capacity.

The first real test of this system will be with 2x 4870x2 in CFX on water, and CPU on LN2 later this month

That's the air temperature on the intake side

Apparently, I'm not the only one with this idea, and Swiftech has just released new radiators that allow a pump to be directly attached:

Neat little project. Looks very portable.

look great, are those koolance disconnects drip less?

If you guys are having leaks, Just put some water proof grease on the o-ring connectors. We use them on dirtbike bearings and crap to keep water from penetrating.

And, usually here is a bead of water on the fittings when I disconnect, but it doesn't usually drip.
