C is the default setting for EK res with anticyclone. You need the tube on the ceiling to trap the air

Your T block will be absolutely useless there. For draining the T block must be all the way at the bottom. If you put a T block there, the water will flow out from the rad once you open the fittign

Get a blower and blow the dusts off. I have a cheap SKIL blower that I use to clean dusts

Nah, with an industrial blower, you will blow everything out of the casing. There's no place for dusts to hide.

You need a Corsair 800D. Buy mine so I can get an XSPC tower

Nah. The pressure can be controller.

Nah. 1-3 is good enough to blow out all the dust. "1" itself is probably 4-5x more pressure & cfm than a GT. I just cleaned my casing with "1" and the PC was running.

Nah, XSPC H2 is a full aluminum tower, not made of steel. Consider it a Lian Li WC tower. However my experience with Lian Li/Aluminium is that it's extremely hard to avoid finger print, and also grease from permanently stuck on the casing. It's also rather noisy due to the very light weight. Everything seems to resonate the casing.

Thanks! 6990 in the works (or maybe 7 series equivalent if I wait a little longer) I need a new power supply. I may be bringing in some killer sh1t that's not available in Msia

Just screw it in. No need to bother tapping it. As long as your screw is strong enough you should have no issue. I changed all my screws to stainless steel, painted black, for a hassle and rust free future

Someone in the forum is actually selling them Jesus, what kind of business also got.

I know where he got the stuff from - Pooi Huat. Unfortunately I don't know how would you be able to get it from JB

Nah 6990 (450W) + 69x0 (300W) + 69x0 (300W) + Oced CPU (1x0W) = Dissaster waiting to happen on load. I'm even selling my UPS to get a 1500VA UPS because my APC Powerchute keep popping up with a notification telling me that my rig is drawing more power than the battery can provide on a shortage.

I don't want Corsair PSU anymore, there's something better out there

Nope. Not even PPC. I hope there's a chance to showcase it. Working on it ATM.

Nah it's not RM2 for sure. The cost is insignificant.

Let's forget about the PSU for now

I'll be getting a single rail psu for sure

It's usually only rotaries that may leak around the joint if you twisted them too much, or they get bent too much by the tubing. I'm very wary about using rotaries around certain areas. Initially I was gonna use a bunch of triple rotaries around the cpu but decided dual was good enough.

I added a gigantic kill coil into my res:



If anybody is interested, I can have a bunch of these made My uncle runs a jewelry store

Yeah it is. I did not bother polishing it.

I don't know how much is it as I never paid for it. But if you are interested you can shoot me a PM and I will find out from my cousin tomorrow.

It wont scratch the Res. It's so dense that it drops down to the bottom of the Res and would not move once it gets in. It comes in a strip and you can polish it however you want, and bend it however you want.

I just found out that my cousin went to China and will be back in Saturday. Even though I could get the sifu to make the stuff for me while he's gone I prefer to wait till he's back so that I could get a proper pricing.

I'm not sure what sizes are you guys interested in, the one I have in there is pretty big:

4mm (width) x 1mm (thickness) x 100mm (length) which is over kill. The one being sold at Petra is probably less than half the size but I think that is more than suffice.

PC Zone has a piece of 6990 EK block in the shelf.

Can you really get 99.9% silver solder in Jalan Pasar? You have to be careful not to get silver solder with mixed tin/lead/flux.

Pure silver solder generally doesn't stick very well and requires flux to solder

Correct me if I'm wrong but I do not think stores in jalan pasar carries pure silver solder. Most of these pure silver solder are only available from jewelry supplies store/jewelry stores them self. But if you can find pure silver solder in jalan pasar, you can definitely toss the whole thing in to be used as a kill coil

Alright, sample silver kill coil has been made

There are two sizes available:

- Small: 1.36g (same weight as petra's)
- Medium: 2.xg (double the size of petra's)

The strips are now being polished. Will get pictures up when I get a chance. Pricing should be comparable to Petra!

Whether it is polished or not is really moot because the silver will oxidize. Google it and you will find a bunch of discussion about this
