Occasionally I need to dry solvents in an oven. Since the only oven I own is in my kitchen, I have to use that. For obvious reasons I want to build a custom drying oven and I figured why not use wc rads as a heat source. The design...

I've been running my water cooled pc 24/7 for about a month now with no problems related to the WC loop. As long as you keep everything at a reasonable temp (specifically your pump, if it needs cooling), I see no reason it couldn't run...

I am not sure about RealTemp specifically, but it can't be all bad. Just don't use "vendor" hardware monitors such as ones from gigabyte. Temps vary from chip to chip and idle temps don't mean anything to begin with. Someone please...

As per radiators, I bought pricier ones, so I can't comment on that. But as per fans, I use cougar vortex 120mm fans. They run at 1400 rpm max; at 15 feet I still hear them, but they are silent compared any ambient noise. Even the...

There won't be any problems with condensation when the computer is outside. The computer will always be hotter than ambient air by a good margin, just like it is at higher temperatures. The problem that I hadn't thought about is that...

Will the Mayhem's X-1 cause any problems in my loop like other dyes do? I'm assuming not since you recommended it, but I'd just like to double check. It lists -15 C at the freezing point which is the bare minimum I'd like to have. Is...

It's winter time and that means free cold air and big overclocks. I'm looking to put my water cooled loop outside. The temps rarely get below -15 C at night. What's the best way to keep my rig from freezing? I'm thinking either adding...

If it's a 12 volt (nominal) pump, it should be as straight forward as cutting off the old adapter and soldering on a molex adapter. If you're as lazy as me (pretty lazy) then you'd probably be fine just twisting the wires from the pump...
