ok first i apollogise for no pics ,i dont have a digi cam.
but i do have the drawings i did of it and it works well and is quiet.this has come about as i had planned to have my mini freezer setup to run this h20 system but since i have other priorities for better mobo and such it keeps getting put off.
i used a cardboard box and cut a hole large enough in it so i could place the heater core over it and could tape it down with duct tape.i put weather striping in between the box and heater core.
then i cut holes for 4 high cmf 80mm fans.they are way to loud to be on the inside so i knew id have to have them outside somehow.
i put it all together and works great.the water has a small amount of anifreeze in it so i dont freeze up and its at room temp,so that will take all night im sure to chill it down.
i was getting 40c @2500 w/prime at 1.85 vcore.
its now after this mod to 33c and dropping.i expect 24-26c for temps when its run long enough.ive been messing with a simlier setup but was making my room to cold so this is why this was done.
my room is back to normal temps and i cant even hardly here those loud fans since they are on the outside.
