Ok Ive moved to liquid cooling as I want a silent PC with no flashing lights etc.. all very plain looking and silent.

PC Spec:

IIyama 22" monitor
Antec 900 case
Corsair 520W
500GB SATA
320GB SATA
2X DVD Drives
Q6600 GO
8800GT (Waiting for stock)

Cooling:

D-TEK Fuzion CPU Block with Quad nozzle kit
D-TEK Fuzion GPU Block
Thermochill PA 120.3
Laing DDC with plexi top
EK Multi Res 400
5 X Yate loon 120mm Low fans
Zalman 2 fan controller
1/2" barbs and 7/16th tubing

All I have done so far is work roughly where I want everything.Ive fitted CPU with Quad nozzle kit. Ive flushed through everything with hot water and left everything leak testing over night.

Im still unsure about where to mount rad, so open to surgestions on this? Was going to lay ontop of case (that way can let the 200mm top mount fan blow throgh rad too?

With the pump the platic top has to be at top when mounted I presume? If so how do you mount the anti vibe rubeer legs? there is 2 holes in the blck pump, and if you use the 4 holes in the plexi top then they dont reach floor as are too high up, what have I done wrong?

Have had sooo much help from Alex on here (you know him and he speaks very highly of you), hes been great and talking me through every step. Its great to have such helpful and friendly people around on here. Thanks all. Well checked all the kit and no leaks so filled with distilled water and will leave all day while im at work.
 
Having trouble with my pump with plexi top which in inlet and which is outlet? Can u say in regards to my pic above or say if its the outer or inside? Logicaly its the outside, but Alex thinks it may be the middle barb in middle of pump. Does anyone know?
 
Right its all going well. VERY cool, from about 28-30 degrees on idel on my thermalright 120 ultra to about 21 degrees idel on water with hardley any fans on yet.lol

Noiser than I wanted, no quiter than my air setup. And casea real mess, need a bigger case or drill back of mobo tray. VERY HAPPY tho. Thanks sooo much Alex.
 
Yeah they on a Zalman 2 W3bbo. I need extenders tho. Ive just brought a new HUGE case. So will fit it in that I think as its sooo messy in my Antec 900. Ive got some pine wood from worth that matches my pc desk and may make a radbox out of it to house res and rad and maybe even pump. I wont put picks up as you would hate to see how messy it is. This was my 1st go so just wanted to see what was involved. il make a good job in my new case (I hope)
 
I have a Asus P5KC mobo, any help on OC it? I know I should read up, which I have done, but I cant find the mem divider to set to 1:1 and cant find PCI Freq etc... Is there a guide on how to overclock a Asus P5KC mobo or a Asus P5K mobo at least?

Cheers
 
Failed again after 2 min. Its fine on just CPU, but if u do blend (cpu and ram) it fails, due to rounding error of 0.5 when expects less than 0.4. whats wrong? PC runs fine. Temps dont get about 35 on any core on stress testing, so cant be heat, and I havent played with any options yet it bios or alike.

If you stress test just ram then it fails too after less than 2 mins. Got to be somthing to do with ram
