Ok final report on this setup for a while

First off.

Danner Mag 7 while a great pump. Runs HOT!!!! I think this one will be getting upgraded to an Iwaki sometime in the furture.

Second. I will be building a shroud to direct the airflow from the blower up into the radiator to get more CFM through the rad.

Third. I really wish I had splurged on better tubing. This stuff kinks too darn easily. SHoulda gone with Clearflex or Tygon.

4th. The DD RBX works great with the Jet Nozzle (the one with the tiny jet holes not the slit) Just gotta push a lot of water through it to make it work.

5th. I do not notice any discernable temp difference between running with the blower on and with iot running passive with no blower. This may however be du to the lack of a duct to direct airflow through the rad.

I am still looking for a good all copper GPU waterblock and possibly a NB block for the system. My goal was to achieve a mild overclock and have somthing I could feasibly hook up multiple computers to. It was mostly a proof of concept thing.

Enjoy the pics. Lemme know if you want any other shots.
