been gone to acehardware at ikano power there few times, only saw those hard tubings, planning to find soft tubings such as clearflex or masterkleer type. nvr saw them in acehardware, anyone know tubing specialized shops? mayb we can get cheap oil tubings there, no need spent a lot on those clearflex...

ace ikano rarely keep stock. It's the one in Midvalley that usually has stock and that's quite limited too. And oiltubings are stiffer then the vinyl tubings ace's sells.

sounds like an improper mounting of block or ur pump giving off excess heat dump into loop. try feeling the radiator with the rig off but the pump on. if it's warm,then pump. best to tear off the rear cover of the p2800 since it's a real foot warmer unless it gets proper ventilation

LOL!!!!, wtf is that? hahahahah

looks like they tried to combine a heatpipe cooler + watercooling XD

but, lets give it the benefit of the doubt, that it will perform better then what it looks like XD

In theory yes, but pay attention closely to afew design details.

1.) what's the barbs size and how much in terms of flow that would allow?
2.) how are the fins oriented? Won't they rob even more water flow rates?
3.) pay attention to how the water flows. Isn't the water going to be heated up and saturate the base plate with unnecessary heat?

Watercooling works on the principles of flow and fluid thermal transfer, not a heat conducted outwards then dumped into water which is going to flow through the base plate again

Instead of you guys using the stickies which were meant for other purposes to continue discussion here? I'm seeing new topics on WC just because they don't know this exist

Don't be daft, using 2 rads will kill flow rates. Using that single rad is enough to radiate waste heat to atmosphere

Minimum outlay would be RM400 if you're willing to downgrade on a few items. If you're chasing for the best then RM700 minimum outlay is the only path
