its just a xp1800 not overclocked - its sat in a cupboard and is running at 41c,
quite pleased with it
 
My first attempt at a watercooled rig using a swiftech Apex Ultra kit along with the MCW55 Gpu block in a Lian Li PC71 Case.Theres lots more to do yet like adding a case window and some lighting but I must say I'm well impressed with the swiftech kit , its given me headroom with overclocking both the cpu and gpu all whilst keeping my sys quiter than its been since my P1 166MMX days :D

Comments welcome or advice even ( I can take criticism ;) )

here the best pics i could get as my screen on my phone broke and i couldnt see the pic i was taking

Got to say the money i spent on watercooling is worth every bit and wasnt as hard as i thought. My graphics cards dont go over 45oC at full load. Got to say was dissapointed with my cpu block as it only droped the cpu temp by 5oC to 45oC

a lot of people said it couldnt be done...
Watercool an antec lanboy with everything inside the case...
People said a single fan radiator cooling an opty 144 @2.8 and a 172w pelt was a stupid idea...
BUT BEHOLD....





On full whack it kept the cpu at 38C load without the pelt and running at about 44C full load with full load on the pelt too. :D
