pics of my setup

OK..

Finally got the webcam hooked up, and took some pics of my rig...

Yes, that's a toolbox on top of the case.. It houses my pump, resevoir and radiator. The radiator gets room temp air pulled in though a hole cut in the toolbox (with help from a 120mm 100 CFM fan inside the toolbox). Air is exhausted through MANY holes in the top of the box and the side opposite the intake. I drilled holes until I stopped getting back pressure on the radiator.

Water flow is: Resevoir>Pump>Radiator>Block>Resevoir

I am cutting slots in my case that will allow me to take it on and off without having to move (or accidentally cut) the hoses.

Sorry about the quality of the pics, but my webcam sucks. I will take more with a digital camera later.

Pix... are... small...

From what I can tell, you have your whole H2O cooling system housed above the computer and just the block in the computer. That's pretty cool as when you open the computer to mess with components, you don't really have to deal with sorting through hose and stuff. I like it. Nice job. The pics are tough to see though! hehe

Whats your flowrate like with having the pump not at the lowest point in the system?

Position doesn't effect flow in a closed loop . . .

At least I think thats a closed loop
