Yep, looking for the smallest OD that is not koolance fittings(expensive sweat.gif )
Some users feedback that if use BitsPower 1/2-3/4 on the 380i, theres inly like 1mm gap between 2 fittings as the I/O of the block is somewhat near =__=
BP is like 26mm diameter while enzo is like 25mm.

Oh well, will drop Cyntrix a pm then

Bro, what size tubing are you using? 1/2 ID 5/8 OD?

I havent bought any tubes yet, but i plan to get the PRimochill from APES amd since the D5 pump has default ID 1/2 barb, i'll stick to 1/2 ID.
As for OD, i think 3/4 is the common used ones.
Lets see which size APES has for the tubes, and i'll get the comp fittings accordingly
. . . .
I still havent decide what res to use doh.gif I hope APES has the Bitspower Tank Z-80
*
Then you will probably have an issue with the tubes. Typical 1/2 ID locally is 3/4 OD and not 5/8 OD. Also, Primochill does not make 1/2 ID 5/8 OD.

For your pump issue, you can change out the pump top and problem solved. smile.gif Or, if you don't want to spend extra on a top get the D5 which doesn't come with a top or get the ones which have different barb size or no barb.

If APES doesn't have the Z-80, I have a full acrylic one I'm looking to sell. wink.gif

apparently APES do not have z-80. they have z-150 but thats too long.
im also considering Swiftech MCres and xspc D5 tank, but i i like cylinder look more

you have z-80?  relevant to my interest.
hows the turbulence(cyclone) inside it? i think D5-at speed2 should be no problem.

*also am asking niclas if he got good offerings for black koolance fittings
*
Yeah, I have a z80 full acrylic unused. Shoot me a pm if you. Want it. smile.gif

It's got a bunch of stuff to prevent cycloning so should be alright.

This route for my WC loop should be fine right?

ResPump --> Rad --> CPU block --> Rad --> GPU block --> Back to ResPump.
*
The loop is alright, but if you can make it work, have it such that your radiator is before the reservoir instead of after. That way your reservoir and pump doesn't have to handle heated water.

BTW, a little off topic. Would a single GTX660 do 1440p gaming? Or do I really need an upgrade?

You could try though frame rates might suffer.

Eh, if anyone knows anyone who wants a 7950 Vapor-X, let me know? tongue.gif

Reference 680. My rig building journey super sway luck. laugh.gif

Started off with a HD 5850 Vapor-X, upgraded to GTX 670 reference card, which wrecked my computer and itself, replaced with a HD 7950 reference card which artifacted, RMA-ed and returns as a HD 7950 Vapor-X. Since cannot watercool, sold my EKFC7950 nickel plexi and already made plans for a GTX 680 reference.

If the 680 dies on me it's just not my luck to watercool a GPU. doh.gif

IKR. I think if I span any longer I might end up with a 7-series card from nvidia or a 8-series card from AMD. LOL.

BTT, does anyone know the effects of too much biocide?

well yeah, but the one you've got allows for fan control, the NZXT Grid a little hard to get fan control functionality. haha

oh then its no good haha...what I have in mind is to connect all 5fans to the pcb & then connect the pcb straight to fan controller. This will allow me to control all the fans for each radiators plus it will still be able to report the RPM to the fan controller. haha
*
Well, if you know enough you could probably get some method of fan control, but it'll be on 10 fans. tongue.gif

I'm doing the same thing you are, except I'm using a 3x 3-pin version. laugh.gif

Anyways since everyone is posting pictars of their rig maybe I should post mine too. Well sort of la tongue.gif Like what I did with the res? Had an idea in mind & tried it out, results were quite impressive otherwise res will be quite dark & dull.

Looking good! Though I'd adjust it so that the holder for the reservoir is at the edges so it's hidden. But that's just me. tongue.gif

QUOTE(nohal @ Jul 10 2013, 12:15 AM)
I'm using OEM Cooler Master fan controller. Cheap skate right? tongue.gif

You're not using aquacomputer's controller?
OSEM!! I really like that ambient plate! "not focusing on that awesome too rad. tongue.gif "
*
Using Aquacomputer controller. But I think standard is 20W per channel or something like that. But it's upgradeable to I don't know what handling. sweat.gif

infernoaswen, bro should light up the top as well, so it's better lit?

I wanted to do that but not possible, because of the rubber grommets. No place to drill proper holes for the holder. There is a small section on top but the rad can't raise too high because I have sp120 fans on the radiator & 90deg fitting on top of the res. If rad is not in push pull config then its possible.

Actually yeah, will put led strip & 3mm leds for the waterblock so wont be so dark, just waiting for my led strip to arrive & 3mm leds. Ram on the other hand still deciding to go with which haha
