The setup as of right now the Res. Hanging onto the case

My thinking on the best placement for the Rad.
Sweet look case right

7/28/03 - Just a little note i have done my research and it appears my memory sucks ass Corsair TWINX512-3700PT i am running it at 250mhz FSB 3.0ghz with cas at 3-8-4-4 timings. Will not go any farther

seems everyone has this problem which is bullshit. My temps are good though still 40c at 3ghz i would love to get this going but memory is now holding me back.

Ohh and i know i have the pump running to the waterblock which is bad.. i just forgot the order i hooked the tubes up when i set this up at midnight last night after work. I will have it radiator waterblock res pump probably.
UPDATE: Well i've gotten everything running in some sort of order.. first without the watercool setup now i just started it up first time still trying to figure out how to fit it all in the system.. but i will add pics soon with the current setup. Getting avg. 40c temp on my 2.4c no overclock though i only have one 120 vantec stealth on my rad which takes two. I have two 90cfm fans coming. The cleaning with lysol and pinesol almost got my tubes clear again pretty damn close. My waterblock on the other hand just took hand scrubbing of the aluminum casing and leaving the copper the way it is. I relapped it with 600 wet/dry paper highest i could get at lowes. looked better. Now i will leak test the setup overnight.

P.S - On to a mobo questions. I have a abit is7 with corsair twin 3700 running and my 2.4c proccessor i ran through the cas timmings down to 2.5-5-3-3 was my lowest ability to run clock. That is without touching ddr voltage and just testing each slot putting down one and starting. I have GAT on auto it has like turbo, street racer and F1 settings. Help me to understand what to do now should i change the FSB from the 200 its running at now like 201 etc. slowly up? or should i increase voltage and try to lower timings?

I am changing over to a new system and with that comes changing the watercooling setup with new radiator and tubing and resevoir. The old system served me well but it has got to change. The only keeper is the Swiftech MCW5000 waterblock but it was very dirty and it had to be cleaned so i read up on cleaning systems in the forum and went with the lysol pinesol distilled water combo and am rinsing through my old system right now i have some pics and i will update as i get farther along with this change over project and the cleaning.
