Need someone to install my watercooling system
 
Is anyone out there very good at installing these watercooling systems and would like to help me out. I have no idea how to set the system up and dont want to mess my new computer up. So I would be willing to send my setup to you along with whatever you would charge to perform this service and all shipping charges.
I hope someone out there is experienced in installing these cooling systems and wouldn't mind trying to help me out. I tried to find a place to install it for me. However, I have had no luck with finding and computer shops around where I live that might provide this service. Also I have had no luck with finding any websites that provide this service. Thanks for your time on reading this post and hopefully someone will help.

I really bet that you can do it if you tryed. Half of the fun is messing up and getting sprayed with water while you are testing it. (o wait, thats just me) List out what you have, and I am sure will will be glad to tell you or give you a idea on how to run the hose and stuff like that. But . . . take my advice and have fun putting it together yourself. Then you can tell people "I did this" :)

*hope I didn't sound like a flamer, didn't mean it to be*

I'll do it if you are willing to:

Send your case to me:
Send your water cooling equipment:
1) pump
2) resevoir(optional)
3) radiator/cooling cube
4) elbows and valves (send money along if you don't know what to get)
5) send $150 for labor

Thanks gizo! I would be interested in seeing your system setup. Also what components would you recommend buying? I have a lian-li pc60 computer case so I want to make sure I get something thats gonna fit. I will get in touch with you on icq sometime this week. And thanks again

Cummon, you gotta take some risks :)

well, it's nst that bad, but if u pay 4 shipping your system, I'll gladly do it for $50 (maybe even less, jult beating $150 4 ya)
I'll check it 4 leaks b4 I put it in the systen, and I can reccomend what to get if u want. List ure CPU, budget, and any other personalise info about the setup and Iqd love 2 help you.

gizo 11-12-2001 12:15 PM

lol, i thought checking for leaks is a requirement...? need we mention it when we put hundred of dollars of electronics mixed with water cooling. hehe

taco: as for watercooling hardware, my suggestions depend on how much you are willing to spend and your preference on the placement of water cooling components.

My water cool system is a lian li pc60. I put in a black ice and a resepump. But since I had a raid hard drive set up in my computer and all of my 3 1/4 bays were full, I could not take out the hard drive cage. This made me sit all of my watercooling components on top of my computer.

I know a website that does this service...
www.overclock-watercool.com . Email chip and he can do this for you.

Quick note: Customer service there eats a bag of poo...

In my opinion just don't watercool man. You are going to mess it up. Watercooling rigs require tuning, maintenance and monitoring.

Taco, read some stuff on the internet. Hang around here for a while. LEARN how to put it together yourself. It is not very difficult. Don't just pay some guy. It will be a rewarding experience too.

Butcher 11-12-2001 01:44 PM

I wouldn't fit other peoples w/c stuff, I'm reluctant to fit any comp parts for a very simple reason, if I **** it up they'll blame me and I'd have to pay for a replacement.

gizo 11-12-2001 02:03 PM

how can $150 for labor label me as a jackass?

Is that too much for maybe 3-4 days of work? putting a watercooling system in a computer doesn't just imply putting it in and connecting hoses.. there is definately going to involve some cutting of the case and a hell lot of measuring. Hell, i get paid $250 a day a my job. If anything, $150 is under paid.

I do agree with Kevin that it is way more rewarding to learn the knowledge of watercooling and applying it yourself. I sure did enjoy
