Where to buy a manfold? pic of my w/c setup

Lost · 01-21-2002, 08:19 PM

Crappy pic but u get the idea

http://members.home.net/kelly2628/photos/112.jpg

P4 s478 1.8, ABIT TH7-II, 512rdram, ATi 8500

Parts: 1/2" DD Maze2, GPU, Heatercore, Enermax adj. 120mm, mag drive 250, custom res. and inline temp. probe.

I'll be adding my set-up, when i get my new mobo in the spring.(either intel or amd; whatever CPU is kicka$# [Woody B or thoroughbred] and has usb2 & apg8)
I going to add a Northbridge and HD cooler. I want to run a manifold to evenly distrubute the cooled water. Nope I dont wan to use a bunch of wyes or build my own.

So can some1 tell me where I can get a manifold for my watercooling needs?

Thanks

I cant get the pics to work, try hosing them else where......

redleader · 01-21-2002, 08:37 PM

Works fine for me ?

Anyway that res looks sweet. Mind if I ask how you made it?

Its a PVC T; 1.5"*1.5"*1 w/ a 1/2" elbow (outake), 1/2" barb (inlet) w/ a threaded/o-ring cap. I spray painted/wet sanded it w/ a silver mettallic paint. Looks pretty sweet for $3.

Try this if the link doesnt work above. post on madonion

There we go, I got it now..... I love the hoses......... Do they kink at all? can U get a sharp bend in them?

www.mcmaster.com has manifolds... there should also be some selection at your local Home Depot or Lowes.

Hey Lost. Switch that power strip so that you can't turn on your computer unless the pump is on. It'll prevent an accident

Brad · 01-22-2002, 02:40 PM

all I would do is buy 2 lumps of Aluminium from a local hardware shop, 1" x 1" x 3".

Drill a 1/2" hole down it's centre line, then drill a series of holes across it.

I'd drill the cpu one as 1/2", while the rest at 3/8", remember that your cpu is by far the most important, so you want the max possible flow to it.

Yeah I made some quick ones just like Brad said.

going to redo them in copper sometime, but atm the coolant inflow goes through the CPU block first, (1/2 fittings with 10mm ID), then to the manifold split to everything else.

Brad · 01-22-2002, 03:29 PM

despite the fact your link is screwy, I have seen your manifolds before, thats where I got my idea from.

Yet again some very sweet work

Thanks for the replies.
I want to add a mainfold to my setup that Im desgining.
Im still debating whether or not to build a custom computer case or go w/ one of those server cube deals. I want to use the mainfold to distrubute the cooled water and have all the outlets from the blocks go straight into a very trick resivor.
Nope the silcon tubes are hard for me to kink.
That auto-sensing power strip is working great as is. What I do is hit the switch on comp. and the pump and monitor turn on a split-second later. My failsafes are in the bios where I have the auto/shut-down if my CPU hets 55 or if my GPU hits 45. Hell my CPU ran 55-60 w/ stock HSF and GPU hit 45 w/ its stock HSF.

I presume you have looked at the cases from www.servercase.com
