If any of you guys are looking for tubings, I would recomend the one that OP is selling, RM5 per feet. This is the same tubings that Aleck used to sell last time. Very flexible and doesn't kink easily. I find them to be better quality compared to the Tygon R3603 that I bought for about RM12 per feet last time doh.gif

Is it a clear tube....I mean pure colourless?

My kit showing weird temps. Idle 37c / Load 47c on stock/default setting.Maybe my AS5 already too old but that shouldn't be problem.Anyway i'll get my new AS5 tube soon,will try my luck then.

erkkk.... 37 on idle? must be something wrong lah. even my current wc cpu+vga waterblock combined still 38c full load.

Running sp2004 n Real Time HDR together still didnt increase much my temp

Just find out that i've tight the screw for my block very tight.Now 36 Idle and 45 load. tongue.gif

How's your setup? Got a pic?

My pwm's going up the roof after moving from air.

The same happened to my PWM.I've placed a 80mm PSU fan to cool it down.I'm getting 38c now.

Edited

What tubing are you using?

Yay,i've sold my budget combo kit bought from metal few months ago.My new storm v2 is coming in.For now totally broken doh.gif and how would i set it up?

Block - storm v2 coming in few days
pump - maybe Nirox or other 2200/LPH?
Tubings - cheap one from hardware shop
Rad - got a old heater core from mini cooper (160x130mm)

I have to maintain this atleast for one month,then only i'll be getting some cash to upgrade.

Pls advise on the pump.Should i get the P2800 or a 2200/LPH pump?remember budget RM50. rclxub.gif

Buy those medical grade distilled water and add some anti alga solution like Hydrx.

According to some forum, keep your loops from sunlight will slow down the alga growth too.

Tried with medical grade distilled water before.Same,algae will cover the tubing wall in a month.
