Speaking of old school diy loops, here's my first, looks rubbish, but it did run my 2.8 pressy @ 3.8ghz 24/7 back then, when everyone claimed they were too hot to oc :rofl: (the res was originally used for candy lol) :p

Nice work. :D Did the res ever leak, those sorts of connections seem difficult to keep water tight from others I've seen try the same - with flexing or any movement, they tend to get leaky.
 
No never leaked, but i did use a s... load of silicone to seal around the tubes, checked the date of the original photo, was older than i thought.... 2004 lol
PS it contained approx. 3.5l fluid :D
PPS too bad i dont have any pics of the res i id after that one, that was external and contained 11L
 
Making a Corsair H60 work hard

I got a Corsair H60 and got tired of the weak fan that came with it so I went out and got 2 Scythe Kaze Ultra's 3000rpm, now it keeps my i7 930 oc'd to 3.2 ghz at a nice 23 idle and 44 under load.

Oh dear, but that is sexy! I've been wondering how that board looks especially with those RAM sticks... I may just have to upgrade my mobo and RAM now...
 
how is your coolant glowing so strongly in you block and rez? Is it UV mayhem stuff? cos its so bright, but its clear under normal light?

Looks like LEDs in the block and res (from what I can tell from the pics at least)
