Water running through air pressure setup, what you think, got cons?

Many are running it fine. So I think it's okay.

You need regular maintenence.
Air leaking does not harm your PC components. But water leaking does.

Personally, I would prefer generic brass barb with host clip. It doesn't look as good as air barb though.

May use some extra air barbs/joints on safe zones like res / rad. Hope to find regular brass barbs in many shapes and sizes

These u can get at hardware shops, but not all hardware shops have all the sizes,

i know of two places that does.

Taman Sri Bahagia in Tampoi , and in Larkin Perdana in Larkin.


i have went to these two shops for these barbs....

SO far SO Good !!

Brass barbs?

How about this? This more hard to find

Yeap, this is air barb. But the L-shaped is difficult to find.
Ask the shop to order for you.

ALeUNe, do you watercool?

I'm pretty cool, no watercooling needed.
Just kiddin'.

Yeap, I'm watercooling my rig.

Any ideas where to get the h/max : 3m pump ?

besides the eheim pumps...

the max i got was 1.7/1.8 m for the in line pump in TUTA .

I have no idea. You must go shopping.

wahhh... 3m? wat for dude? Eheim the onli 1 i know, but the price ..... something like Eheim 2250, if i'm not mistaken.

I can get this. It's cheap, around rm4 - rm5 onli.

You mean the L-shaped barb? 1/2"?

For high restriction waterblocks lor... (i.e. Storm G4/G5, AquaXtreme MP-05 SP LE) you need 'em heads...

Noob question no 1 :
So.... using lower Hmax will reduce the cooling "capabilities" ( sorry dunno what the terms for it )?

Noob Question no 2 :
How to classify, which waterblock need high pressure n which not?

Go to Tmn U jalan pertanian's shop lots. there is a hardware shop next to the furniture shop. Or goto the shop at jln kebangsaan (same road as Brothers, next to pak ali restaurant). They have the stock. Good hunting.

Generally most probably. The impact of Hmax on the cooling performance depends on how restrictive is the waterblock. High restriction waterblocks need pumps with good Hmax to be able to bring out its full potential whereas low restriction waterblocks are more max flow dependant although you still need some reasonable Hmax (which shud be normal in higher flow, lower hmax pumps).

By the design of its channels/fins/jets. An example of a waterblock with high restriction is the Storm G4 and the AquaXtreme MP-05.
Examples of low restriction waterblocks are like those who just have a simple single channel passing thru.

Thanks...

U got those from there ??

Maybe i will go and check it out tomorrow...

i need those barbs too...

hehe....

untuk projek BAIK nyer... hehehe......

Wanted to survey the price of these pump, maybe wud go for these pumps, kalau nak upgrade waterblock...

just like what metalzone explained..
