Yeah, I've heard quite a few people notice that, I'm running thick walled tubing and have never noticed it though. Powerful pumps.

Anyway, here's some updated photos of my rig:












The piece of tubing going back to the res is not going to stay like that and I plan to get another 5870 instead of the 5850.

Not really happy with any of those images but they will do.

Also, Thanks Kevin!

Some of the watercooling PCs look really really nice. I was wondering how hard it is setup on of the watercooling solutions? would a beginner to building PCs, like myself, be able do it?

If you were to buy a kit like a Rasa or EK kit you would be able to set one of those up pretty easily. Its not a super hard thing to do, you just have to think logically about things.

D5's can do that too Used to happen to me with Tygon thin-wall, I used a few inches of those spiral coils. No U use 7/16x5/8 Primochill so wall thickness really isn't an issue haha.

Patience and some mechanical inclination and you'll have no problem. Plus we're all here to help along the way

No need to add this kevin, but here's my temporary box-bench setup while my case is out for paint. I just couldn't bear to go back to stock cooling

Just finished my first custom loop .. just leak testing before i connect all the cables ...



Question: I used Indigo Extreme ... in the instructions it says to disconnect the pump for any water cooled pc's .. should i just power up the system with nothing connected and let the cpu heat up? or what other process do i do seeing as how i have my gpu's on the same loop.
