Spec a h2o setup please

Hey deadman,

Well the pump was getting a bit noisey, then just stopped lol.
First i knew of it all really was the pc kept shutting off.

So moved the pc onto my desktop and noticed a small air bubble in the tube by the waterblock, though wtf. touched the water block and burnt my hand!!

Bear in mind im running my q6600 at 3.9ghz with 1.7v in the bios 1.65v actual through it!! Thats why the pc kept shutting off when it reached a certain thermal point!!

Glad it did. Upon looking at the water block out of the case its slightly warped!! the plexi top is coming away from the block at the edges!! will try to get some pics over the weekend.

Thanks for the info but until results are published that is mere speculation. Successful testing/ conclusion requires more than 1 sources' submission of results and to beat the D-Tek by -7 degrees imo is an astounding feat.

I like evidence and not speculation 1 review does not sway me until i am able to compare reliable (sources)testers re, test bed information and what variables were controlled and uncontrolled during the test.

Well received all my h2o gear.

No barbs sent with the pump :(
Missing nozzle kit :(
and wrong extra barbs that i ordered, ordered 1/2" received 3/8"

Called them up and all bits barring the nozzle kits being shipped rm special d, will be here tomorrow :)

Case, Coolermast rc-1000 has also just arrived :D wow what can i say, its brilliant!!
 
not sure I can ask this, but I will anyway lol What kind of money are we talking about for a custom water setup you've got there?
 
Someone mentioned the Thermaltake water cases. I was thinking about one if my budget can stretch that far as they seem good value and less troublesome for a first-timer.

Pros and cons anyone. :confused:
 
Xenocrates,

All i can say is dont do it. The TT stuff is pants, thats what failed on me :(

Pro's yeah it is easy to setup as a first time kit.

Con's the pump failed, and a lot more could have gone wrong.
The case uses all non standard rads and such, so you cant even replace it with a custom kit at a later date, which was what i had intended to do.
