Title in reference to me never water-cooling anything before.
If you just want to look at the pics I found them on pages 1, 6, 11.
Enjoy
Hi,
Let me start with this... I know there is probly info already here but its just to confusing and some out of date.
Ok so I have never wc before but now it's time. I already have some parts but I need help finding a pump and res. I also want to use something that won't freeze because I plan to do something like starp the rad to my a/c evaporator or dunk it in an ice water filled bowl or something from time to time (unless there is a much better way)
This is what I have.
I also have a 240x45 full copper rad.
I'm limited in space so hope for a small res and pump. They can be one unit. Hopefully not seen.
I chose to get all pieces seperate so I can add to it in time (a week).
Like I said I know you could find this info with available threads but I find myself reading for tem minutes only to find the info is out of date and not relevent. Plus I wanted to see what you all thought of my new first timer project
The tube is 3/8 ID - 5/8 OD I have G 1/4 compression fittings otw - the rad is alphacool.
About the RAM they have nothing to do with watercooling but are they considered air cooled now that I have aftermarket heatsink? I like the chromed look whether or not they actually make any diff.
