WaterCooling Anyone?
(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)
Posted by: Alchemist
Hello..
I want to get into water cooling... I have read couple reveiws and stuff on sites.. But I have 3 question I couldn't find the answer too..
1. How long should I leave the liquid in?
2. How I suppose to change it?
3. How can I get the bubbles out?
I am planning on getting the "Thermaltake BigWater 760i Liquid Cooling System" but I am open to any thoughts to better ones..
Btw... I can't find a VGA Cooler that will fit and work on the ASUS 8800Gt card..

Just make sure the tubing / nozzles match the Bigwater's!
Maybe you wanna get a chipset water block too and a flow meter?

You're welcome.
I guess I whas just lucky stumbleing over the Koolance block.... Figuratively speaking.
Btw, I found a nice flow meter from Thermaltake that whas pretty cheap.

Koolance had some different chipset blocks to choose from. Just make sure you get one that have the same kinda "socket" as the mobo chipset.

Thxs.. The flow meter just tells me how fast the flow is going right? And does it matter when I put it.
The chipset blocks are for the mb right?
If so how would I know which one would fit?

Yeah, it's a way to check that you have an even flow thru the system. I belive the flow meter should sit on the tube, going from the radiator - out and to the water tank. Check this picture out below.
As for the chipset block. You will have to try finding out what kind of mounting the actual chipset have?
But I'll guess the Koolance CHC-120-V06 seems to be a chipset block that fit's most boards. It's also is the latest chipset block Koolance have made.

This, is also a neat gadget, if you wanna keep track on the water temp? But it will requier a windowed case to be of any real use.
