Need help WC'in my AMD64 Shuttle!

[blarg]

I have the following setup...

AMD64 3200+
Shuttle SN85G4L (Nvidia Nforce 3 150)
BFG 6800GT OC

I am wanting to WC both my CPU and GPU. I have already purchased the C-systems 750 pump and a Blackice Black 80mm rad. Now I'm trying to figure out which waterblocks to buy and specialized tubing if necessary. I'm aiming for a system that I can OC pretty well and run pretty silently if necessary.

Any suggestions?

Anyone? Help!

I just got myself a custom-made #razor-design block for my shuttle

Any WB should do the trick, as for tubing i would use springs to prevent closing.

There's a good job somewhere on this forum, i'll look for the link

If I had a Shuttle AMD64 (lucky bastard! ) I would be motivated to get low-profile blocks from a height point of view. There is not much space around the vid card slot, and with the C-Systems pump, if you had a low profile block you could figure a way to mount the pump directly over the CPU block, with hardly any hose connecting the pump and the block.

Candidates for such a setup on the CPU side that come to my mind are the NexXxos HP which is very low profile, or a old Swifty MCW-5002 block. The 5002 isn't necessarily "low profile" but it has quick-connect fittings integrated with the block, hose ready, and at conveniently inclined angles. This eliminates the need for the normal barbs, which are quite high usually. The Asetek Antarctica also has flush quick connects, but it is a three-hole system that needs a y-adapter, and the inlet/outlets aim straight up. I think the MCW-5002 would be the best in your situation, assuming AMD64 sockets are supported by them.

Low profile for the cpublock isn't really nessescary (this is misspelled i know) since the hd doens't reach above the cpu (with mine) and you still can mount elbow instead of straigth fittings or just cut them in half and use extra secure tighteners.

LOL, nice funnel!

Thx for the replies guys, I was starting to lose hope. I'm looking into getting the DangerDen NV-68 GPU block. Someone in the hardforums successfully installed it on a 6800 inside a shuttle. Of coarse I wont be able to use my Audigy card then. My waterblock choice was the DangerDen TDX block. I might just buy a new system since I'm a very power hungry user and these Shuttle cases (this is my 2nd) don't have enough expansion to them.

Any other suggestions?
