Water cooled Rig Part 3...

Hmm... finally its weekend and i had managed to get all the components i needed, hence its time to finish up my water cooling rig... woo hoo..~ This part of my bloggy is gonna be picture intensive....

Firstly, my radiator fixture its finally here... Thanks to Sunny!!!~~

Another look (below)... My own design... Isn't it gorgeous? keke...

I fitted the fixture onto my TJ07 casing... Look at that! It fitted perfectly! Swee Swee...

Now its time to prepare my radiator and my cpu water block. The cpu block was oxidised and had to be dumped into some carbonated water (i had used Sprite Zero and i drank 80% of it :p) to remove the copper oxide so that heat transfer could be improved. Look at the bubbles, while my copper block was being attacked!

I could only talk about the process of working on the radiator.

1) Add vinegar into the radiator and let it react with the chemical which are used to manufacture the radiator for an hour.

2) Flush with distilled water.

3) Add vinegar again and leave it in the radiator for another half an hour.

4) Add distilled water into radiator and let it settle for half an hour.

5) Rinse radiator with distilled water again.

Once ready, i fixed the fans and radiator on to the fixture i had designed, which was sandwiched as shown.

My pump fixed on to the plinth that i had worked on earlier.

Above shown everything fixed up, as i ran my water cooling circuit with distilled water to flush the system.

After that i had drained the distilled water and replaced it red coolant i had bought keke... Below shows my UV lighted water cooling rig in the day!

Another look as shown below, my work area!

Last shot!

Its been fun working on the system, but it requires a lot of time, effort, patience, sweat and strength! Just a little disappointed with the power supply as some of its cables are quite short and the cpu block storm as well as it only managed to get 2 cpu cores cooled properly, it is my fault for not researching before i got this 2 product.

At the end, I am just glad that the system isn't leaking and it is working pretty well. Ho Ho Ho!

My new toys!

Got my modular power supply finally!!! It does helped to save up space as unnecessary wires could be kept rather than left lying around the casing.

Pics!

1KW sign, keke! Carried this around last sat, SHEESH it was heavy!

Plugs on the PSU....

Another view on the PSU.

I have also been hunting for 2 other things... A new GO stepping quaddie and a DFI P35 board which were extremely good to clock... After waiting for 3 weeks i got my quaddie finally yesterday!! Vitty! if u are really interested to get a new PC, Q6600 (quad core) look out for the batch: SLACR (shown below)! They consume less power and they are really cool...

DFI Mobo... read at one of the webby... it allows one of the cpu to hit 600FSB! thats really fast and only 300 pieces are available in the world!! Pics!

DFI P35 BoX!

Army colours layout....

Set the whole combo up within half an hour and was shocked that it couldn't boot! I was so excited that i forgotten the power for the GPU as well as slotting my rams... keke
Everything was a breeze...

Results:

Look at that! I managed to clock it to 350mhz (FSB) at stock voltage with a stock cooler! If it was a rev B3 chip u will encounter some problems working at 333mhz and above... More exciting things on over clocking this chip lies ahead after i am done with my water cooling setup this saturday!

WOOTY!
