More block madness
Here's my latest creation. It is designed on a much smaller scale but still with limited restriction. Water is going to be in and out of their quickly, with good velocity and fairly decent surface area for such a small space. What does everyone think?

Not yet. I still need to finnish the bottom with a few mill bit passes at the edges and lap it.

Can you get a closer top-down shot? The center looks like a volcano... is that what you were going for?

/me wonders: How on earth did you make that ? TNT ? Nitro ? Rail gun ? Looks like this "modern art" stuff (you know, compression sculpture)...

It reminds me of a little volcano or mountain or something. quite scarry.
Was that a dremel creation? Maybe just a big grinder? Ive always had an idea for your blocks, so I'll just spill it now. Just for sake of testing, I was thinking of a hole drilled straight down into the "mountain top" with four holes drilled into the sides of the "mountain" so that a small amount of watter would be forced inside the copper comming out the bottom further turbulating the already turbular water

simply madness!
I bet that sucker has alot of time behind it. I only see one minor issue that may not be an issue at all. We as a comunity are struggling to get all this cooling hardware into smaller and smaller cases. Do U think that with having those outlets like that would case kink problems with the processor being so close to the power supply? Wont that have to be a big hard bend for the tubing? Just inquiring. Still... mad block man. NICE! Bigger pics please!

it's deffiniatly an original design, looks like it would induce very turbulant coolant, and should have good flow. Nice job.

Very close to testing. I have two version tops. This will work with P4 or AMD all in one.

U know what.... im a moron. after looking back at the pics I understand now.
the fogged plastice is the machined part of the top. U know if U use wd-40 while machining, it will help make it clear. use alot, cause it looks like it was melting on U when U were machining it.

I have made a compromise on the angle for the barbs. It is drying now and I will test it tonight. Here's a pic of the final, fully functional (yes I even lapped it) waterblock, what do you think?
Fixitt, you will not be able to see that part of the block when looking at it so I didn't have much concern over the see through aspect there. |
