Default a few pics of my setup...

Ok what you see there are a few pics of some of the stuff I made,however not all running in current system.
water block construction... http://image.pbase.com/u/stevo10/med...7.DSCF0004.jpg

waterblock with cold plate screwed to waterblock.... http://image.pbase.com/u/stevo10/med...9.DSCF0001.jpg

with peltier mounted.... http://image.pbase.com/u/stevo10/med...1.DSCF0002.jpg

I'm not currently running the chill tank or the peltier.Its just waterblock to cpu and ambient water.
Its working well and the water temps remain constant so the radiators are doing their job.Interesting though I went to great lenghts to insulated around and under the cpu for the peltier setup,however when running just the waterblock I found the load temps too high.I removed some of the foam in the chip socket cavity but still have some silicon there. The temps dropped straight away?I figure that this foam I had placed there was making some kind of heat insulation and trapping the heat in.
I'm now wondering if I should even remove that silicon there.
the final setup looks something like this , http://image.pbase.com/u/stevo10/med....DSCF00063.jpg
however there are a couple of mods to the box since with some fan holes and a digital temp readout.I'll post pics not too soon...
