Hayden shroud

The Tick · 08-24-2002, 02:08 PM

first post...woot...anyways i recently finished watercooling my system and im not as pleased as i thought id be. Ambient right now is 32C (hot i know...no a/c sucks) and MBM is showing 42C with just netscape going.

one thing that would help my cause is a shroud for a my rad, hayden 676...anyone got any ideas about how to mount this thing to two 120's and keep most of the air going through it?

Cardboard box?

maybe i should clarify, i was hoping that someone could point me in the direction of what others have done with this rad. that being said, any takers?

cardboard box?

sheet metal box? I saw a guy make a shroud with sticky notes once.

Ah heck! I ain't got time for this: goto overclockers, and look for the article titled:

Here's my 75 Caprice core and shroud:

1. Cut out design in aluminum flashing (I used scissors)

2. Fold into the desired shape. Affix to core with liberal amounts of Goop

3. Add a little something to attact the ladies. (Optional)

on my hayden i use cardboard, tape it together with electrical tape. then i use double sided tape on the rad; stick the shroud on (don't worry, is a rocksolid setup)
