** CHILL OUT ! **

[Adsta]

Am I right in thinking that realistically the only one of those that is going to be useful in a CPU and GFX loop is the Hailea Ultra Titan 1500 Water Chiller (HC500=790Watt cooling capacity) and one above it ?

Presuming on a SB CPU and say 460GTX + ?

Pay day is only a couple days away and I have to say I am highly considering buying one of these.

Another question you say in the description

Temperatures down to 4°C are possible, please note that at low temperatures (high temperature difference) condensate may accumulate. Suitable insulation accessories are also available in our shop.

I can't see any "insulation accessories" on the OCUK website to go with these. I had a look on internet and some places do anti-condensating tubing to feed to the pump. Is that the sort of accessories you are refering to ?

you need to in affect lag your pipe work adsta so that no dew forms on cold tubing... basically like a plumber would in your house

If you put a radiator in the same loop as a water chiller it would actually cause the fluid to heat up when the chiller was in use!

Unless the ambient is cooler than the chilled loop!

You set the cooler to a temperature above the dew point for the room (which will still be below the ambient temp) to avoid these sort of complications. In a typical room the dew point would be about 6 degrees centigrade. (room at 25 degrees 30% humidity) Plenty of room for sub ambient cooling without condensation....

you have set your computer up in a giant refrigerator with the water cooler outside in the heat?
