enzoleo Posted January 7, 2008 Posted January 7, 2008 the pipes are all transparent i think, get a good coolant usually green or blue. if u want compact, try swiftech because their pump is attached to the waterblock(saves space :thumbs-up: ). all the best for yr build!

Shadowfactor Posted January 7, 2008 Posted January 7, 2008 Yes those are 1/2 tubes with some sort of green UV coolant... There are 3 types of Reservoirs actually.. Drive Bay , External and Mini Reservoirs ( Example Swift-tech Micro-Res) You can also not use a Reservoirs and instead use a T-line or Nothing ( wouldn't recommend Nothing though ) What specs are in your system so we can recommend a good CPU and chipset block... Chipsets are just over kill when Water cooled because they do reduce line pressure and even a Oc'ed chipset can typically be cooled with a normal heatsink/or fan. To get that look you have to do a ton of cable management.. You might have to mount the radiator outside the case Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joseb Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 (edited) Hi. For CPU and NB blocks, I think this just looks great! Check them out at Enzotech website . Too bad they don't have any block for the GPU. I've read in another forum that those also work really good! In any case, have a look. Hehe, sorry for the none working link. Just couldn't figure out how to insert a link. Edited January 11, 2008 by joseb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

airman Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 don't base your purchases off of looks, it probably won't get you the best product you could. a better looking/better performing block out there in my opinion is the dangerden tdx...clear lucite top, etc. here's a picture of one on my old opteron 144 system: get some good quality 1/2" ID tubing, some good coolant (i have pc ice in my d-tek fusion setup on my quad, idle is 24c...and it's a very plain block too), and some uv die of the color of your choice. if you're not concerned with space, try to get a 120mm x 2 radiator. i have the black ice xtreme ii, and i'm very happy with it. my pump is the DD D5 12v pump, variable speed. silent while running at highest setting instead of a reservoir, i just have a tline. does make it a little tougher to bleed out air/bubbles though. i'm always up for more of a challenge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
philbrown23 Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 the cpu block is a swiftech apogee gtx wich is a wicked nice block! just BE CAREFUL with watercooling it could ruin you components! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
