    Tenkiu Tenkiu. Saw it as a good deal since i know pak Snipe is always careful with his stuff, and with him, he either uses it or doesn't, and this one comes from the doesn't category :p

    Nice setup. I wish I could move my stuff internal. But that requires a bigger case. I guess its time to wait for one of those CM stackers to come on sale. :p

    Hmm.. I doubt a single 120mm radiator will cut it though. :think: I have a CoolRad 12T modded onto a Corsair Nautilus powered by a 190CFM Delta (usually run it on 7V). Get real good perf with it cooling my FX-55 but I don't know if a waterblock would outperform my VF900 that I have slapped on right now. I get real good temps with the CPU and don't really want to sacrifice it. :p

    What fan are you gonna use with the BIX?

    I get tubing real cheap here (clearflex 1/2" OD 3/8" ID for $0.31 per foot plus shipping.)

    Not too sure about the rad, that's why i'm planning on the Xbox hueg Thermochill PA120.3 triple section (proc, NB, GC), or a smaller Stew Foster designed PA160 with push pull configuration with 2 fans, which will actually fit into my casing after i remove one of the hard drive racks (Lian Li V2100).

    Nah, not really running anything as pushy as a Delta, i use Papst 4412Ms although i'm planning to get some GLB2s, they push a respectable 80 CFM with not much noise and even less vibration. Planning to get rid of the BIX once i've saved up enough for a Thermochill which AT says is overkill, although i personally lurve overkill.

    Tubing....hmmm, i guess the standard variety from Acehardware will do for now, until i get some Tygon Vinyls that is :mrgreen:

    Yea, thermochills will work with papst. With the BIX though, it's best you use a higher power 35mm thick fan. My Coolrad 12T is pretty simillar to the BIX.

    I tried getting two fans together but it just wouldn't fit due to clearnace issues. But its cool. I got the fan shroud that came with the cool rad to keep things flush with the externally mounted delta. :p

    Or you can opt for my radiator, MCR320, much cheaper than PA120.2 and still perform better.

    ^ True, but the PA120.2 is 2 section and the MCR320 is a triple section, which means i'll have to get an extra fan and redesign my radiator fan PCB, which i'm quite lazy to do :p Plus the difference between them is extremely small, so i'm still quite partial to the PA120.2, heck the skivved fins and the body = Sexier hehehe.

    Heck i like standardizing my barbs, BSPP for all yay!

    Cool water cooling kit, empire23. I wish to have one to put it into my Celeron D 347 that I can overclock almost to 3.8GHz. I want to push it into 4.00GHz, but the comp won't start. :haha:

    Actually, MCR320 ducted to 2 fans will still perform better than PA120.2 :D

    Ah so that's what you decided to go with. Design looks similar to the EP-630 I suggested, it may even sound similar (there's a fair number of these canalphones that share similar sound signatures). Good to know that you're enjoying them :thumb:
