yay! my copper arrived! i got
1. 1' x 2.5" x .25 (1/4)"
1. 1' x 2.5" x .125 (1/8)"

i plan to use the 1/8" stuff as the base and have two layers of 1/4", the first one driled all the way through.

i thought about the cpu waterblock a little more and came up with this. seems easier to build and should perform about the same and use less copper. the 1/4" only extends as far as the spiral, so there should be a bit of only 1/8" sticking out on each side where it gets attached to the board.

the gpu waterblock uses the same design. this way i can just drill out the top all at once and then attach the base. its for a gf4 4200.

oooh. also, im thinking about getting a bigger pump. the one i currently have is 85gph @ 0 head, 2 ft. max head. kinda piteful. i was thinking via aqua 1300 (cheap!). will be running these two blocks and some kind of radiator. rad will probably be a bunch of copper tubing.

damn, i would be working on this right now but i have a latin midterm tomarrow
