There are some real works of art in this thread - one day I'll have something like that hopefully
Anyway, I've just completed my first watercooling build and leak tested it for 12hrs, it's not up to the standard of other builds in this thread but I'm happy with it:
I've still got to secure the pump in place, the padding was just there for testing to stop the drone of the pump resonating through the case!
I think I'll be rebuilding it in the future to use compression fittings instead and maybe some thicker walled tubing as the 1/2" ID, 5/8" OD kinks very easy.
The full specs are:
EK Supreme HF (Copper Plexi)
EK DCP 4.0 Pump/Res Combo
XSPC EX240
2x Scythe GT 1450rpm
OcUK 1/2" Shiny Silver Barbs
Masterkleer 1/2" ID, 5/8 OD Clear Tubing
PrimoChill Hoseclips
Mayhems Pastel Ice White
Temps running a 2500K @ 4.6GHz (1.38v) haven't jumped above 52 degrees on all cores - very happy considering my H50 was hitting 70 degrees sometimes!
