[V12|V12]

Hey all, THANKS a ton for all the replys/ideas... I went and got all the supplies: extra 1/2 tubing, brass/nylon 1/2 nips, 1x3" PVC extender tube w/ 1"Cap... 89mm x 80mm PVC pipe and had some spare plexi laying around... But I've made some changes, since everything I plan on building, ends up not working out off paper!!! (I hate that!) So the stuff in RED are the changes made from the original idea. I've yet to start building it, but I cut some copper tubing etc and will get started tonight/tomorrow morning(right! lol!)

***Note*** If you do not have a pipe-cutter and are cutting w/ a hack-saw...NO NO NO! It took me about 10sec to cut a copper tube w/ the cutter, compared to like 5min w/ hacksaw, plus I didn't end up with a straight cut either ... anyhow... the problem with the current "T" set up is that I've got the flow going: Pump---CPU---RAD---RES---Pump etc... well, I've found that my little 28W Via 1300 dumps an ENORMOUS amount of heat into the system, then that directly goes to the CPU... not to mention it's annoyingly loud HUmmmmmmmmmmmmm MMmmmMMmmmm I hate this pump! Plus the "T" get's in the way of my Mobo's Vcore/Smbus and just about all the other out of date jumpers I'm always fiddling around with. WIth this new Res, I'm going to change the following:

1) Flow to: Pump---Res---RAD---CPU
2) The 120mm will suck in air as opposed to it's blowing in now.
3) Res at the top of case to free up space at the bottom
4) Lil' eye-candy at the top blow hole where the Res and LED will be placed.
5)Pump will be moved and mounted on some sort of ghetto anti-vibration stand, I'm going to check and see of the shaft is bent, cause it's not as quiet as people claim it is?...

Okay, that's about it for my babbling... hopefully this will be a quick and non-messy job... I've got to go out a consume a few beverages tonight... WHooP!
