Thanks for the fast shipping and great service CyberD!
I do have one quick question, how much of the dye should be used? My loop holds about a bottle and a half of PC Ice.

Here's a couple pics for ya.

It may be that logisys ccfl is weak, but the dye don't seem as bright as it should. It looks great regardless, really darkened up the blue pc ice, changed it from a yucky blue green to a deep blue that I like a lot better.

Sorry abut the slow delay--yes it's a matter of taste.

I have ordered a large quantity of extremely bright Tracerline UV Blue and UV Green that I will soon be listing on the store--I will post up tests in tap water with ratios so you can see what glow it gets.

Basically most UV blue dye is industrial leak testing dye--now some of it does have a bad effect on certain rubber parts that are in some pumps. The Tracerline I ordered is specifically formulated to be used in cooling loops and will not harm anything and is pretty much ideal. Tracerline makes about a dozen types of dye some for oil systems some specific to the refrgierant industry... and some like these are for water cooling systems in industry and automotive applications.

This dye should arrive in the next day or two.

Mix pink and blue together, that gets you purple. I found that out mixing up a gallon of distilled, some anti-corrosive we use in the farm equipment, and the blue d-tek dye.

Thanks for the heads up on the Tracerline. I've used that brand of dye in auto A/C systems to find leaks before. It may be the same dye that they produce for coolant leak detection in cars.

Yep I'll send you a sample bottle of the blue to juice up your loop. Probably will be able to do that this weekend.

Thanks, I'll use straight distilled this time. Maybe I'll get my mcw60 on my 8600gts this weekend and cut that and a black ice gts 240 xflow that I got off ebay into the loop. I've been infected with the watercooling virus, I wc'd my northbridge for crying out loud(the fan was driving me nuts, same with the gfx fan on my 7600gt, damn xfx 2 hole mount). I'm thinking about mosfets, ram and hdd's too.

When I cut the gfx in, I'll have the d-tek block I got from you, and ek chipset block, mcw60, Black Ice pro II, Black Ice GTS 240 x-flow, mcp655b, 5.25 bay res, all in a loop. I hope my pump can handle all that, cause I don't have the greenbacks to spring for another pump right now.

At least I'm getting 36c load folding on this 5600+ now instead of the 48c on air. Ambients hover around 26c.

I'm thinking about setting it up like this res->pump->bipII->cpu->chipset->bis240->gfx->res

You will need another Pump IMO.

But you are obviously infected.

I want to totally LC a rig--I mean TOTALLY...but the WBs will cost more than a small car...

I was afraid of that. Maybe the swiftech can keep temps decent until I can get another pump. This PC has to be quiet, it sits 5 feet from my bed.

I'm sure the Monolith can handle a whole rig, or three, but you are right about the waterblocks. I have as much or more in my LC setup than I do in the whole rest of the rig. That may change however, as if I add another loop, I'm going to have to move this rig from my $20 Rosewill midtower case to the $145 CM Stacker that I got in last week. I also bought an E4500 to play with(currently at 2867mhz and rising), 8600GTS to LC and add to my amd x2 rig, Foxconn S939 mobo for an htpc build, and some other stuff for a friends build.

Is it any wonder I'm almost broke?

Goin Broke LCing...welcome to the club.

Hey my rig sits on my desk and is literally at arms length or less from me. So it has to be quiet. Luckily the case itself absorbs a lot of the noises--the only downside to Monolith is that the Iwaki is loud--I mean I think I will have to build a special enclosure just for the pump--it gets hot--needs air--but is also loud--which makes quite the challenge for mounting in a confined space.

I think the allure of Liquid Cooling is that we will somehow have these silent PCs...and then we also want performance--and the two just barely co-exist

But it's fun.
