Magnetic Shielding for Pumps
I'm in the process of rebuilding my water cooling system. At first I thought a rad box was a good idea. A blower, 2 heatercores and 2 mag3 pumps definately wouldn't fit inside my curent chieftec case. 1 problem with the Mag3s is they produce quite the magnetic field which gives my mnitor the shakes, placing the pumps in a radbox under the desk would be the out-of-sight out-of-mind solution. I recently came across a post of someone building a 2 sided case, 1 side with the hardware the other side there cooling stuff. The idea inspired me. The problem for me with a bigger case is the fact the pumps would still be close to the hardware and my monitor.
A large custom case has several benefits over the rad box. Reduced tubing means more flow, easier to move 1 unit rather than 2. The only issue is the shaking monitor would drive me insane at some point. Even though I haven't noticed any stability problems that kind of EMF so close to my computer cant help anything.
Are there any relatively cheap and easy ways to shield magnetic fields?
