    Default *Quiet roll your own H2o*

    So you want quiet. Heres what I have in a quiet H2o rig. I have an old Maze2 water block 1/2", 1/2" hose, Eheim 1250 pump, 5gal. reservoir, thats it! No radiator, one case fan for a RAID setup, its a 92mm, plus the Enermax psu fans. This setup is very quiet. If I used only one drive, I could eliminate this fan also. This is not a good setup for extreme oc'ing. Moderate oc'ing and quiet is the name of this game!

    At the moment I got my poor little 2.4bghz@180fsb priming without errors and stuff... This is with default voltage... So I don't know... I've hit the wall yet.... Hm, I am around 38-40C in fulload I THINK... The Abit IC7 temp sensor is wicked... So I am guessing it's showing about 10 degrees to hot... Oh well... Hm, I think I am going to get an BIX 'til the fall...


    Hm, a small refrigerator... Hm, might work out just fine... Why don't get a Prommie right away... ;p j/k the hard thing might be having the refridge holding together while your putting lots of heat into it...

    What are you looking for, inside or outside the case H2o? If outside the case, pump, hose, radiator, water block, reservoir.
