Water Level And Stream Indicators - Will It Hurt preformance

ras81 · 10-08-2005, 02:07 PM

hello
i have the KAILON SILENCER MKII liqiud cooling system (a passive cooling system)
the pump is 780 l/h hmax 1.4.
and the tube is 8/10 mm
i have a CPU water block and a ZALMAN water block on my chipset in this water loop.

i thought of adding thermaltake water level indicator and the stream indicator.
would it hurt my performances alot?

also, do u think i should configure my system in a diffrent way (like moving the zalman water block fron the chipset to the GPU or something else)

thanks

Hard to say without knowing pressure drops. From the looks of those parts you wantto add I would suggest not doing it or just go with the level indicator as you will see water moving in that thing anyway so not much point in the stream indicator.

If your system is working the way you want then leave it. Moving the block to the GPU may overheat your passive system.

hello
i have just got the AquaBay M1.
i have a passive cooling system with a water tank of 3 liter and when i operate my system i see in the water level indicator only half full, while i have just refill my water tank complety while the AquaBay M1 is connecter.
what is the problem? why isn't it full completly?
