Well, I finally decided to throw out the bigwater and its 1/4" tubing. Now I have a Danger Den water cooling setup. It works much better, my prescott is overclocked 3.0 -> 3.6 ghz. Its temps are about 25C idle and 30C load. Also my 6800GS is overclocked from 425 -> 535 mhz. Its temps are roughly 37C idle and 41C load. I guess you could call that decent

LOL Fiziks, how do you mistake N.C. for San Jose, CA ??????



PaulWuzHere, why are you scared of water cooling? when you use de-ionized water, leaks just evaporate, they don't short out your components

would be nice if we would see some results from your cooling with and without under a load.Would work alittle better if you relocate your water container to were it sits over your processor,It looks like it suchen air.

The Thermaltake Bigwater comes with a green coolant. That's what I used. If you don't believe me then.. that's fine.

so then really, what is the point of the green liquid... so when the tube ruptures, you can watch the emerald liquid blanket your components like the cream cheese on your bagel every morning before you continue with your strenuous day-to-day activities...



you need people like me, you need me so you can point your fu**ing finger and say "that's the bad guy"

I switched it around a bit, I dont know if it will really help. I got rid of that extra reservoir, it was a pain. I did this about 3 months ago but I just never bothered to take a picture. I had my camera out and thought why not. Now I can finally close the side panel on my case. Oh well, works good enough for me.

This article ( http://www.water-cooling.com/article.../watertest.php) leads to believe that de-ionized water isn't as safe as some people would think.
