What do people think about this Xoxide Fill/Bleed res?

Good price, and they say the central 'barrier' bleeds the system extremely well. I would think it would hurt the flow of the water... but maybe it wouldn't matter. Anyone have an opinion?

Thanks

The 90's would kill the flow, and res's like that one often leak... not good. I used to use a D-tek bay-rez and had no problems. It also had a center piece. The water flowed around it it instead of into it though. I personally think pushing the water into the barrier would kill flow.

IF you want to bleed fast, build an airtrap. Otherwise, jsut stick with a T-line.

There is a nice lady on ebay that is making me a custom res. If you want something like this I would check out her auction on ebay or email her.

What's the advantage of using a res. over not using one?

Ease of fill/bleeding and the con is the space needed and the flow restricting it creates.

Wow I am excited, did you offer to make a post on here for here in the classifieds? I guess you should see the product in person first.

Once you put together a T system its obvious why the res has an advantage hehe

Also i want my res outside my case!, makes me feel safer about filling and bleeding.

What did you have her make you Korndog?

EDIT just so you know, i am in the process of ordering one from her too.

JDizzle · 04-27-04, 09:18 PM

I'm sorry what's a T system?

asdasd · 04-27-04, 09:38 PM

a system with a t line as apposed to a reservoir

Here is what Kim on ebay made for me, I only sent the money yesterday and she has it made today and is sending it tommorrow!
Awsome

Any contact information? that thing looks nice... looking to get one

klath · 04-29-04, 11:00 AM

I tried looking for "kim" user name. Got a person with mostly buying feedback, not selling.

More info would be appreciated. =)

Also, does she make cheap bay reserv or is it around $30?

buzzby · 04-29-04, 12:05 PM

That res looks like a bit of a gimik to me. The center barrier would only really work if the flow rate was very high. But no pump used in water cooling would be that high. Just get a standard res or use a T-Line system. There never are many bubles in a system anyway.

ares350 · 04-29-04, 12:10 PM

hmmm depending on the water level though, this would be good and bad.

overall the level was under the barrier, one side would be full and the other side would not. creating 2 things...

the good. it would have a waterfall effect. this would keep the water in the resevior moving, rather than developing dead spots in the corners of the box.

the bad. that same waterfall would create bubbles and some would likely get sucked through the loop.

Korndog · 04-29-04, 12:14 PM

here's the one she made for me..
can't wait to get it either

shelbykim0 is her username
she did mine for 30 shipped. a bay res would cost me a little more then that. Besides that, my was custom, she makes regular ones for a lot cheaper.

SVC sells UV bay rez for $20 (regular price $30 else where). Why would it be more than a round res?
