Were your leaks just on barbs and the block? Unlucky mate

No, the rubber o ring was damaged

yeah the warranty sticker is usually on the side of the block, if it's not there they may refuse warranty I suppose

I think it may be broken.

hyperst said:
can you get an O ring to replace it from anywhere, saves time and messing about

like?
Knowing me, I'd get the wrong one

I'm talking about the ring that goes around the block just on the inside

omg im soooo jelous i really want a liquid cooling setup like this but am on a really tight budget anyway i can do a cheaper setup to this for under £100?

Not worth it. Dk it properly or not ar all

£200 is a realistic budget.

Looking good cleeecooo, have you done water cooling before? Fingers crossed you get a better bit of luck when you get back to finishing it off.

Thanks

First time liquid cooling :eek:

You could always try one of these, Mr Dubs speaks very highly of the kit, I'm thinking of using the same..

Still, orth doing it properly and doing everything you can. The advantage of spending a lot now is that you won't have to upgrade anytime soon. The only thing i'll need to change are my GPU blocks and I might possible have to buy various CPU backplates. The pump can handle pretty much anything and I can add rads as I please

Cleeecooo · 14 May 2011 at 10:13

Yeah. I realised my mistake.
Thanks fir the kind words spydell

The o ring should be arriving by wednesday and i can then start with overclocking.

Back from ban!!!

My mate now wants me to add a GPU block, which I have ordered. It should arrive tomorrow.

Pics as promised:

why so much packaging for some bloody cathodes???

Had to use a knife for 4 of the screws.

Guitarman0 said:
Yeah, those small 4 screws are always hard Looks good so far though

However, I found out why they pack the cathodes so tight because I bent one very slightly when messing with my PC and the glass inside shattered

but still, I needed a machete to get through all of that!

How much paste?!?!

Does GPU's need that much?

Didnt come out properly. Scraped most off.

Cleeecooo · 26 May 2011 at 22:18

final pic for today

The tube going from rad to res has an area which has no liquid flowing to it. Hw would I solve this??

Cleeecooo · 27 May 2011 at 08:08

I can, but the plate doesnt look as good IMO.

Cleeecooo · 27 May 2011 at 20:18

I have CPU stable at 4.3

I will push for 4.8 now.

Anyone have any idea how to change the voltage? I can't seem to find the answers?

Cleeecooo · 29 May 2011 at 13:14

The build is finished and i have given it back

Forgot to update you guys, had more interest on a competitor's forums where this thread is at 35 pages!

My mate already wants to sell the new comp

*headdesk*
