I'm really beat now, hard work all day since I got the package and now finally I have a somewhat temporary solution that runs and seem to work quite well.
The things I have now is:
Maze 3 P4 waterblock
Black Ice Xtreme radiator
Eheim 1250 pump
I currently have no fan on the radiator, and I'm running the system in a bucket instead of a closed loop with T-connector as I originally planned.
Reason for this is I didn't have time to get a T-plug and I didn't find one the places I was looking.
Oh yes, tubing is clear 12mm PVC (roughly 1/2")
Temps I can not tell since my sensor in the mobo seems to be way off whatever I do.
I use tap-water since I was lasy, this is temporary only, and the water here is pretty good quality to my knowledge and pH is good.
Things I have learned from this is:
1: The wooden floor in my room does not stand water very well, and the cracks between the tiles are really large and can hold huge amounts of water.
2: Don't spill out 5 litres of water on above wooden floor, it will look bad.
3: My 5-port 100Mbit ethernet switch is fully submersible while powered on.
4: PVC tubing will not go off once you have attached it to a barb, use a knife.
5: Do not start pump when the outlet hose of the pump is laying on the floor.
6: Mobo PCB can stretch a LOT, this was learned while attaching the waterblock and realizing that a HUGE lump had started to appear BEHIND the socket on the mobo.
7: 24h leak-tests is just something you say you will do, you never actually do it though.
8: Eheim pumps rule!
Now I'm gonna sit here and test it a bit, probably no attemps at OCing.
Nortbridge is running mighty hot now when the cpu fan no longer second-hand-cools it.
Moms gonna kill me if this floor doesn't get dry soon, I'll get back to you guys later as things evolve.
