Well, for some reason as of late I've had the itch to WC again, and not only that, go all out with my hardware (thats later on once I have money again).

I currently have a big Panaflo blowing onto my stock HSF for the e2180...in a cold room, it's keeping it in check till my Freeze Pro 7 arrives to replace it. However, I have NOTHING to throw on my 7900GS...looking all around, had a bunch of old AMD heatsinks till it dawned on me. I still have my old WC stuff...

...soooo looking around downstairs, I found my old BIP II, MAZE4, dual floppy bay res and a Danger Den MAGII LE pump - and the best part about it, I had about 2 ~ 3 feet of 7/16ths tubing as well and all my worm clamps. So I'm like, SURE, why not?

I was only able to come up with 3 of the screws for the MAZE4...it uses all 4...so I went ahead of only securing it was 2 of the screws diagonally, used long thick zip ties to hold the rad to my case, mounted the res in a cdrom bay lol. The pump coming right off that pushing down into the MAZE4.

Needless to say I feel like a kid again with my hardware.

Before Air:
Idle: 44C
Load: 70+C

After Water:
Idle: 28C
Load: 32C

I love it!

OH, best part about this...this pump is basically dead...it out of nowhere decided it wanted to vibrate like mad one day so I retired it. Still does now but not nearly as bad...runs great! I do have plans to get a block for my CPU, new pump, etc etc...I'm currently running 1 yate loon med and 1 yate loon low on my rad.

OH, a buck 59 ($1.59) was for the distilled water :D

You my attention.

I do not think that really counts... I got a free 2002 GSX-R 600 for 30 bucks the other day too! I just changed its oil because I have not used it in a few years...

But nice temp drops! :)
