Thankyou everyone (and coolmeister)

hi,

i don't know if many of you know, but i don't know what i am doing. so, i managed to get me watercooling into my first ever custom pc today and took some picture for you, to say thankyou for helping me. these are just prelim pics. those cables from the psu will all be hidden, so only tubing will be seen. i have ideal temp of 28 degress C. i don't know if this is good or bad?

here are the pics so enjoy.

Unsure what they are, but i have 4 exactly the same, if i am correct they are 12" and you can get 4 for a tenner on ebay :P

[sunnyg]

nope. i got them from the infamous "overclockers". its dual uv cathodes by akasa, but i'll check that in the evening.

[koola]

Nice system you got there ;)

[Sc0rian]

sweet :D looks good once its all in place etc :)

[sunnyg]

what about that temp?

[Leeum]

Your temperature is spot on. I'm pushing 34°C idle for a Thoroughbred B and a Maze4, I'm happy though, it's a hot chip ;)

[sunnyg]

ye, the block is on an AMD X2 4400

Nice, one of these days my pc will be pritty like yours and other peoples...now it isnt nice to look at. Although dont know if I will do watercooling.

[Lovah]

Looking good. I'm still afraid to start with wc. Its also very expensive! but someday! someday I'll watercool! lol

hi,

i juststuck everything in my case, and the temp has now gone up to 36. is that still ok. i have no idea why it did that. all i did was add a few wires and put the case up.

[Aphex]

putting the case sides on will give you one of the biggest temp rises. the way air moves with the sides on and off is SOOOOOOOO different. so don't worry about it.

[sunnyg]

ok, but is that temp ok? i first used my controller to check the temp with now says 37. that is recorded by a temp probe. however when i use the temp checker in my bios is says 34. which one should i go by?

[Aphex]

bios can be funny, as can thermal probes [if u misplace them] i think what u should know for certain is taht the temp is perfectly fine, nothing at all to worry about. if u have 2 temperatures to go by though, generall go for the higher one then ur safe, and not sorry!

[sunnyg]

ok thankyou.

i'll see what they r like tomrrow. i have been doing work all day in my room, on my comp, and have had soldering irons ect on. maybe its just my room temp that is increasing it,

p.s post some pics of the final thing tomorrow.
