Looking for an assessment of a possible loop.

cobra342_ · May 10, 2010

I'm looking for an assessment of this loop to see if there are any issues.
PumpSwiftech MCP355
CPU Block Koolance CPU 360
Radiator Black Ice SR1 280
Tubing 5ft PrimoFlex Pro LRT
Reservoir XSPC Reservoir top
Fittings D-tek 1/2in high flow
I also plan to put a drain line in the bottom.
I will use Distilled water with PT Nuke for Fluid.

perfect, not a thing i would change. that being said, what are you cooling?

Conumdrum · May 10, 2010

I'd get the Bitspower or DD fatboy barbs. Better grip and actually a bit larger ID. Bit it's such a teeny bit of diff I'd stick with the Dtek. Especially if you have to order from another vendor just for them.

Get PHN PT-Nuke, made for distilled loops. But PT-Nuke will work just as good.

I'm cooling a Phenom II 920(in my sig). And hoping to overclock near 4ghz.
I can get either of those barbs from Performance Pcs.
And I'm in need of a good fan controller if anybody has a favorite I want to hear.

Jabtech has a nice cheap manual controller. popular and able to handle a lot of fans. I got 3 fans on one channel, next channel the same.

I don't like any of the choices at PPC.

lamptron and sunbeam are good companies from all that i read for fan controllers.

Aerocool V12xt Has had good reviews along with nzxt touch screens, but I don't know how well they will work down the road.

I'm thinking about this Akasa Fan Controller

They seem to make good stuff (from reading reviews), but they seem to distribute mostly in Europe

Is this the one you're thinking of? The new Lamptron has a nice led display. Looks like you can read it from an angle.

Edit: Cobra342 - A good automatic fan controller is the Scythe Kaze Server (12w,1a/channel). Works great on rad fans, I like it. Only bad thing is it's hard to read at >45'angle. Whichever one you get be sure to look at the power rating per channel.

I love my Rheobus. The LED's are a little too bright for my liking, but the fan control is amazing, and the Extreme is supposed to be even better. You could also check the front page for a review of a couple of new controllers from Lamptron. They looks to be extremely nice controllers, and hokiealumnus did a great job with the review, IMO.
