got my radiator!

eTiMaGo · 12-11-2000, 06:26 AM

Yeah finally found a junkyard where they had some spare radiators.. smallest one i could find is pretty big though, the standard car radiator... gonna try to find a metal shop that will cut out the right size portion and solder connections between each water passage...

BAH!

find the biggest damnded radiator you can find and strap it to the side of a box fan that you set up next to your computer. That will cool even the hottest of CPUs that you'll ever find

well even if you decide against that, good luck with your project,

yeah nice idea but i need this to be as internal to the case as possible, I will be taking the casing with me by plane to a new place. UnaClocker's case is prety much what i am trying to achieve, but with the radiator side mounted

Hey, don't bother to pay someone to do it. You can do it yourself with a blowtorch with the correct sized burner, flux and silver solder. Just find a mate with all the equipment!

Cheers

Hmm yesh sure good idea memphis, but i'd need a friend with that kind of equipment in the first place!

and anyway they'll probably do it cheap

That junkard blows if they don't have anything smaller, either that or they are really lazy and don't pull random things of the cars like my local junkyard does(Of course having an uncle working there to do it makes it easier).
