- Why do i want a WC setup ? -

Well i've been always into AMD, since i think it's the OC processor, and it has became a little hobby of mine, reasently i become a member of 'The order of opterons', now i want to push it even further... so i removed my IHS, that helped allot, and i know that i've got an Opty that can't exeed 2,9Ghz (or probably, since there is no guaranty in OC, but still wanna try) i don't like pelt or phase so the only thing there is left... is H2O, the best option for me

- List of order ! -

PUMP: Laing D4basis - € 83,00
BLOCK: D-Tek FuZion - € 67,99
RAD: Black Ice Pro Stealth 240 - € 30,20
RES: Coolplex Pro 10 - € 29,90
FAN: 2x Silverstone FM121 - € 30,00
TUBING: 4x Masterkleer transparent 1 Meter - € 15,96
FITTING: 6x Straight High Flow 1/2" - € 17,40

So i finnaly got everything in, and i couldn't wait to get started, i did allot of pre-work and allot of thinking (since i had to wait for a long to time to get shipped) so i had practually ecerything setup in my mind.

[
Well let's start with a nice bottle of Bacardi Oro !


Now i remember something on OCN about the FuZion has something in it that you wouldn't rather have in your loop/fluid. but i forgot what... so i opened my block to check it out


Yep, now i remember, it's this O-ring that looks like smeagol in a box


A closer look...



So i took a small Victorinox knife and cut the extensive rubber off the ring. this in order to make the ring fit properly back into the FuZion.



And here are 2 close-ups for the fans !


Since i don't wan't any leak in my loop, i'm using teflon on every barb in the setup.





And some on the caps of the reservoir.



And even the pump get's it !


Here are the two Silverstone's FM121 (107 CFM variable) on the 240 rad.


And here how i like to see them fit into my Armor case.



But in order to get it fit i need to make a bracket to hold it in the middle.



I thaught about the air getting sucked into the rad, and i wouldn't want to get the air past the sides of the rad, so i cut up some foam and put it at the sides of the rad, seems like a nice sollution to the problem


place of reservoir and pump


Here i drilled some holes into the floor to fit the pump



Also drilled holes for the stands of the reservoir, so it would hold it's place by all the tubing.


so here is the final setup of my loop, this in order to get it nicely into my case without have a reservoir or a rad outside.


in order to hide the pump as much as i can i had to put it as much as i can in the 5.25" bays, you can see the tubes of the rad running past the pump and up...

So this is day 2 of building and by now i needed a new bottle of bacardi, so out with the old, in with the new !


So in order to run the pump without having the build everything in and have a change of leaking on my hardware i needed an spare PSU (stole it out of my dades PC )


Here is the method how to hotwire a PSU, connect the green with any black one (seen it somewhere before)


Here are the fluids (Deionized water + UV Blue Dye) and gear needed to fill up the system !


Well you do the mathe after allot of drops !


so by now i started to fill up my loop with the method, 5 seconds on/off. this in order to get the pumps sucking water instead of air (didn't help much, this water guzler sucks it like mad !




this doing by filling up the res completly after each pump start...


now this is where mu problems started, because of the pump doing 1200L/H and i have no variable pump, the pump pushes the water out so hard that there is starting a turbulence in my res, which follows in sucking air like mad.



this after 30 minutes running....

now the rest of the build !


so i decided to build in wc loop into my pc....


and then i forget this the metal bracket for the socket holder, i shuilda know that wouldn't go on with the tubes already atached i to my block. but luckely i only spilled a few drops disconnect and reconnecting it for the bracket

And now some show-off pics, enjoy !








test and results will come soon !
