Water cooled setup

[Acid_death69]

The bubble goes there cos of the power of the pump, the water is pushing it. But everything looks good fella you should be proud of it
I would like to see what temps you get but thy wont be reliable for another 200 hours:s

Congratulations D.

So, how much noise does this system make?
Can you hear the water flowing or the pump pumping?

Now to fire her up and see what the temps are.
@Acid...I have yet to see temps change much- if at all- after the magic 200 hour, thermal paste "settling in" period.

lol do you think it doesn't exsist like? i am sceptical aswell, but i do understand how it does need to 'settle in' maybe not 200 hours though.

I don't know whether it happens or not.
The problem is that your temps are directly tied to room ambient...unless you have very good climate control, how likely is it that your room is exactly the same temperature over the course of the 200 hours (however long it takes to rack up that amount of run time)?

Thanks man I cant hear a damn thing. If I listen real close I can her the water woosh a little bit. I can feel the pump vibrate but not hear it at all. I barely hear the S-flex fans I getting my hands on some 92mm San Ace fans as well soon. Im sure I will hear a bit more when the other six fans are turned on 2 top 120mm 2 front 120mm and 2 rear 92 MM I may not use them all but def the front fans as they cool the HDD's and the I would need exaust fans too right? Going down in a few to see what I can finish up tonight, pics later

[Acid_death69]

cool, least you've managed to get it all working and nothing has messed up So what were the first temps you got?

[Detale]

Damn I been so busy with work and I haven't even hooked up the front panel heaers and I have to wait for my new SATA cables to come. I am going to try and go down there tonight for a bit

D., what are the plugs in those fillports made of?
The Danger Den fillports used steel plugs and they rusted in short order.
I switched to some all Delrin units which weren't as nice looking but wouldn't rust...and then I ditched fillports altogether.

[Detale]

Well although the fillports themselves are mad of aluminum the cap material isn't specified, all it says is that they are cadnium coated. I had read of something like this so I got some acrylic ones. I forgot to put it in the drain port so I guess I have to wait and see.
