Well, I actually thought I saw it when it first went up lol, but apparently I was very wrong and just saw it when it got bumped back up. I thought it was a new build that you were gearing up for because I only remember seeing the first page with your car and stuff. lol. Yesterday when I posted was the first time I saw everything in the thread from the first res to the case as it sits now with the bong cooling youve just completed.

First, I love the entire idea! It's elegant and seems like a very cost efficient way (at least for someone with access to tons of scrap plastics) to cool your PC.

Two questions though:

1. Are you worried about residue or molds on those cloths in open air? Is there any way you could quickly change them out or deter them from getting smelly?

2. Do you have a constant urge to go to the bathroom with this thing on?

1) I have yet to encounter these issues.

2) Not at all.

Hey there,
The Venturi cooler looks quite good. You took the idea of 'shop towels' to heart! Haha I used to use the blue towels from homedepot, more like heavy duty paper towels, but I bet those will work fine.
Any difference in load temperatures just yet? It looks quite good, and it sounds quite nice!

I haven't run it with the actual computer hooked up yet. Doing that when I get home tonight and fix some things up.

Here is my first model of my summer project "Heavy Rain":

Project_Heavy_Storm_2012_06_22_12572500000.png

It's going to use both of the cooling concepts used in Project Rainfall.
