My previous design ....

BlueBall · 06-11-04, 07:52 AM

I still need to fabricate a retaining clip that presses on the CENTER of my new block. Not alot of room left. My FOURTH design is underway already and has the potential to be half the size.

I am interested in feedback.

[AK]Zip · 06-11-04, 07:53 AM

You have some of the weirdest waterblocks I have ever seen. 2 thumbs up to you! Looks very origional and interesting.

BlueBall · 06-11-04, 08:02 AM

Heres a good pic from bottom up ...

[AK]Zip · 06-11-04, 08:08 AM

Any pics of the inside?

BlueBall · 06-11-04, 08:10 AM

I am not a plumber butt I have done tons of it. I only have 1 or two joints I would redo if I could. If I decide (after benches) that this thing rocks, I am gonna use copper roll instead.

I am thinking of making the fifth block a phase change only design. I have an small fridge compressor that needs a home in my rig :> Well... I gotta rip it outa the fridge first ;>

JFettig · 06-11-04, 08:16 AM

that is a strange but cool lookin block. it appears its a cross drilled block, center inlet and 4 outlets going into 1.

yeah, it looks like holding the block down could be a problem. maybe if you made a hold down out of aluminum or something, unscrewed those plugs, put the old down on, then screwed them back on and bolted it down.

It could work pretty well.

BlueBall · 06-11-04, 08:20 AM

The inside was impossible to photograph ... it reflected in a prism kinda effect. I can tell you that it is NOT a simply cross drill design. There is a turbulance area (1/2 round) directly above the core. The capped cross chambers are slighty smaller and draw the heat away (outwards) then upwards and out of the block. Then it re-unites in a chamber designed to keep uniform flow (water will take the path of least resistance).

BlueBall · 06-11-04, 08:30 AM

I have the retaining hardware ... I just need to figure out how to get pessure on the center of the block ONLY. My other block with the acrylic top can be easily over/under tightened minutely.

BlueMan · 06-11-04, 09:10 AM

Man, what kind of drill did it take to work the inside of that?

ZachM · 06-11-04, 02:45 PM

That's a very interesting design. You should post that in the custom water block gallery if you haven't already. One question. Is that metal braided tubing in your second post? I would be afraid to let that rest on my video card!

Is it coated so it doesn't conduct?

Aphex_Tom_9 · 06-11-04, 03:42 PM

wow, nice custom blocks! what are the insides like??

slater3333uk · 06-11-04, 04:42 PM

Funky.

Keep up the good work, even if its not the best performer is an interesting design.

orionnt · 06-11-04, 06:46 PM

I like the AMD sticker on the WB. Never seen that before, heh.

BlueBall · 06-11-04, 07:08 PM

Yes ... They are braided faucet flex lines and they are coated and so is most everyhting else. I used this ... http://www.ocforums.com/attachment.p...chmentid=29936

Don't judge my peformance before I have even put in in a box!

BlueBall · 06-11-04, 07:16 PM

This fridge is gonna hold my resevoir and radiator (as well as my beer

)

The other PC's on the picture are running as servers. One is my old XP1700 JUIHB DLT3C ... That is one kick-a$$ chip! 2.3Ghz with an SLK-800 and TWO DELTA BLOWERS ... Thank god it's all in the basement. My office is SILENT!
Silent enough that my hard drives annoy me.

I think some kind of spider-like retaining clip mounted to the 1/2 inlet at the center on pivots so it can be oriented alternately or used on newer and/or different mobo mounting holes.

squeakygeek · 06-11-04, 11:23 PM

Where did you get the retaining hardware?

VAdept · 06-12-04, 12:10 AM

Wow, looks awesome, kudos for design style. Hope you can work out the retaining mechanism soon so we can see some results

BlueBall · 06-23-04, 10:31 PM

I have FINALLY mounted my new block. While I was at it I decided to mod my case too.

And since I went THAT far ... I might as well do the whole 'fridge' thing too :>

I will post some pics now and some later.

I made a CPU hold down plate with AMD carved in it but it broke when I was enlarging a drill hole. So I made another with my name on it. H A R D Y (Systems)

BlueBall · 06-23-04, 10:33 PM

Here is the start of my case pics

BlueBall · 06-23-04, 10:34 PM

I will DEFINATELY be modding the front bezel.

BlueBall · 06-23-04, 10:36 PM

Here are the inside shots

BlueBall · 06-23-04, 10:37 PM

Hint .... Paint your case with BLACK or SILVER or even white before using any 'anodizing paint' .... remember the 'anodizing' is see-thru

Aphex_Tom_9 · 06-23-04, 10:39 PM

noseeum!
edit- nevermind

BlueBall · 06-23-04, 10:41 PM

Here's a good one .... Slide 3/8" copper INTO 1/2 inch clear tubing. It gives an illusion of 1/2" copper but has a rubber feel. And is SAFE in your case. Unlike water.

I couldn't believe it either

BlueBall · 06-23-04, 10:42 PM

more pics

BlueBall · 06-23-04, 10:45 PM

Unfortunately in this model they put the condensing line in the SIDE of the fridge ... my hole saw found it. I am not cooling yet .... just using it as a res.

Gotta solder the hole then recharge the R134a. (One day my PC will be INSIDE this fridge!)

BlueBall · 06-23-04, 10:57 PM

I introduce to you a MSI FX5900XT (380/790) that has been highly modified like this ....

Flashed to 5950Ultra and water cooled to kick out 450/900 and rising!

BlueBall · 06-23-04, 11:03 PM

BTW ... the PINK water is actually this ....

And is SAFE in your case. Unlike water. I couldn't believe it either Attached Images __________________ AMP Phenom II 550BE ------------------------------------------------ Intel Q6600 @ 2.6Ghz 2 x 2GB OCZ PC8500 Dominators (5-7-7-20) @ 2.2V---------------2 x 1GB Corsair XMS2 PC8500 @ 5-5-5-15 Gigabyte 790GX UD4H -------------------------------------------------ASUS Striker Extreme SLI BFG OC 6800GT 256 DDR3----------------- -----------------------XFX 8800GTS 640MB @737/2150 EK Water Block 2x500GB WDC SATA2 RAID0 ------------------------------------------2x250GB WDC SATA2 RAID0 1000GB WDC SATA2 ---------------------------------------------------250GB WDC SATA2 250GB WDC SATA2 OCZ 700W ModXStream PSU------------------------------------------ OCZ 850W Power Supply Custom Water Rig

I am not cooling yet .... just using it as a res. Gotta solder the hole then recharge the R134a. (One day my PC will be INSIDE this fridge!)
