Nice to hear that

Right, but in case of "all inside" system the size is limited so this factor is a constraint.

I will have to order Tygon, but it is quite complicated since I need 10/12, 12/16 and 16/20-22mm hoses.
To avoid problems you can use spirals provided you put them
outside the hose (in hoses you must have linear not turbulent flow).

And never 0.2*C

I used digital termometer, especially calibrated for the test. The sensors are LM35 (+/- 0,25*C).
2,5*C is a standard result:
PAPST 172mm - 12V
3xPAPST 120mm - ~7,5V
2xPAPST 80mm (back) - 8V
CHIFTEC (side) - 8V
PAPST 80mm (hdd) - 12V
TT Memory - 12V
0,2*C was a record! All fans 12V (I don't have a 48V power supply to unleash the performance of PAPST 172mm).

Outstanding performance is what counts!
The two things I am shamed of is that I have to bought heater core and reservoir. It my opinion it is no problem to buy all the parts and then assemble the system. In fact to have the performance it must be a tailored-made.

Glass is MUCH MORE BETTER than Plexiglas! This solution is worth recommending although is is harder to cut the glass.

2x45 are much more restrictive than 90. I used 15 and 18mm elbows to reduce the resistance to minimum. Probably I will buy tygon.

Cheap because they are made in Poland. The quality of them is better than D-Tek's!
I will do anything to make our blocks avaible for you - the producer is looking for resellers in GB.
