Black ice cooling fan

shooter1663 · 06-26-2003, 01:44 PM

I am trying to put my water cooling rig together one peice at a time. I have my black ice Radiater and just received my Rotron "Tarzan" 7x7x4' 340cfm fan. 115vac 1.5amps, they also have these in D/C but i decided to go with the A/C fan for my purpose. I had to build a shroud for this thing to work properly so the fan sets approxamitly 5" back from the radiator.This thing blows some serious air.
My goal is to run a chilled water system rather than a tech system. I also have purchased one of the old refrigerated systems that keep two different fruit juices cold and stirrs them also, (i will do away with the stirrers and cut down the containers to a workable size).This unite also hase a thermostate for controling the temp. As I get further along I will post pictures If anyone is interested.

So whats the point of the rad and high CFM fan if your going to have a phase change setup to cool the water? Whats the Black Ice and monster fan for? Seems to me adding a Rad and fan to a chilled water system will only raise the water temps up closer to ambient?

That sounds more over-engineered than my duct.

Setting up regular water cooling first to get by.
Ultimate goal is for water chilled system. It will take a while to figure out the water chill system, I may still use the fan for the condensor cooling. I want the chilling system in a seperate carry case approx weight 40lbs.
