Stuff I ordered from Taobao China, gonna setup my loop for first time after getting some distilled water later. Pump I got from APES though.

SwiftTech MCP 355 DDC Pump  (APES)- RM230
Alphacool NexXxos ST30 360mm (Taobao)- RM180
Alphacool Compression Fittings 10x (Using only 6 now, 4 extra, Taobao)- RM108
Phobya 150mm Resevoir (Taobao) - RM82
Alphacool XP Light 3 Intel/AMD CPU water block - RM104
MasterKleer Blue UV tube 2 meters - RM0.01 (it's RMB0.01/meter, max 2m/customer promo)

So this is roughly near RM600 setup(after include those postage etc)
*
THAT IS CHEAP. shocking.gif shakehead.gif Good haul bro. thumbup.gif

BTW, careful with the reservoir. Scratches super easy. Also, throw out the Alphacool paste. IIRC, it's rubbish.

edit. If you want to make the pump a little better, at the cost of losing the warranty, change out the top. That way you can use compression fittings and improve the flow and pressure head a little. Also helps with direction of tubing.

Is Thermaltake P400 water pump good? Can it watercool cpu and gpu , i know it's an old pump though O_O

Hard to say since it's not a pump many people use. You can always just read spec sheets, but that doesn't really help. lol. If you already have it, no harm trying. Just monitor conditions.

i guess that alphacool is bought during 11 nov promotion. some of the phobya and alphacool items are half price

That was a damn good time to buy stuff man. Phobya radiators have very impressive build quality and paint finish. Excellent stuff. And Alphacool makes the lowest FPI radiators in the market and have like 6 ports for whoever needs it. lol.

I ran into a problem, my cut my pipe a bit too short. When I run leak test without my long fat GPU, everything is fine.

I tried to squeeze my GPU in later but there are some bends over the pipe(those that will reduce water flow) and run test again. Now there is  stone/stiker coming off noise and I cant identify what is it, any idea?

Video : https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=364048...video_processed

In this video, got 2 bend spot, the one I show near CPu block and later on, the one behind all those wires.

Eh? What was the video suppose to show?

The I wonder why my screw thingy size different?

Just like compression fittings, there are many sizes for 'G' thread fittings. If you wanna use that, you'll probably need a conversion adapter fitting since most water cooling parts come standard G1/4"

Useful? Yes of course still can use coz it's just a a fitting. But it'll be hard to find water cooling brand adapter locally coz everyone uses G1/4". You might be better off spending the money on a new fitting. Unless you don't mind regular plumbing fittings, which you can probably get from hardware stores that sell plumbing parts.

After water cooled, my CPU temp is at 40 degree idle, which is even higher than when  i use my Hyper 212+.I did applied a good thermal paste instead of the alphacool original one.
*
How much paste did you use and is mounting correct? Also, check whether the block orientation is correct, some blocks have a certain orientation to follow and the inlet and outlet are fixed and cannot be exchanged.

What's your loop flow like? and what fans you using bro?

Yea, Im following the in and out correctly. I use the grain style and I'm pretty sure it spread evenly when I was readjusting the mount.

Pump > CPU > Rad > Res > Pump

Im using Artic Cooling F-12 PWM fan though.
*
Hm. What's the temp difference on idle? Should try loading the CPU alone and see temps. Use linx or prime95.
