is it secured enough if not clamping the tube when using barbs?

if bitspower barb it is ok.. but if u pull out the tube after using it for quite some time then u need to cut the end of the tube coz it'll be loose a bit after that(tube already expanded).

Ok thinking of using barb fitting and tygon to connect the gpus

We found XSPC barbs to be even better than bits power. There are 2 bitspower barbs on the res/pump and we had to use clamp on those because the tube can come off quite easily.

With the XSPC barb, good luck pulling it off once you plug the tube in.

hurm that why im asking since if it is straight tube its okay
ur customer pc got S tube, i think if didnt clamp it for sure the tube will come off in matter of time(using bits)

what coolant do you use in that cm 690 ii ??
i use EK blood red..the color is too dark..

The tube is not going to come off with those XSPC barbs.

It's EK Blood Red coolant. We are going to formulate our own coolant soon. Need to build one more of these 692A for own use

somehow few people got dark batch of red blood coolant
same with me it s look like real blood color

check out my 1st wc rig..the red is too dark..thinking of migrating to uv color

mine is darker
looks like pitch black

white ccfl tu brand ape? mcm menarik

That looks normal

think u need to add more water, just guessing. never use before

You don't add any water to the EK Coolant, it's a premixed solution. But supposedly adding distilled water shouldn't be a problem

IMO it looks quite dark.
I think u should dilute it with a qty of distilled.

Been browsing xtremesystem for a few days picking on the next casing for another serious project but can't find anything that is really worth the time any money.

Wow that CPU block looks interesting. The bay res also seems nice. Excited
