Got the "waterbox"/tank from Elfa |
 |
|
The goldish nut's came from a plumbershop |
 |
|
Started drilling small holes and the made the larger with a sandstone "drill" to make the holes prefect. |
 |
|
The white stuff on the "screw" is a tape that plumber use to tighten the threads.
Also put on a rubber gasket. |
 |
|
|
 |
|
To be extra safe, I put on some silicon. |
 |
|
|
 |
|
Outside |
 |
|
Put on silicon here to. |
 |
|
Sprayed the inside and the lid with this plasticspray to prevent corotion of the box material. |
 |
|
Befor sealing the box, I put on alot of silicon on the edges. |
 |
|
And outside aswell. |
 |
|
Here is a hole going to be for the pump 220V cable. |
 |
|
Drill |
 |
|
Rubber gasket to prevent the cable to breake on the sharp edges. |
 |
|
Dont forget to vacume the inside of the case befor puting in the MB and shit. |
 |
|
|
 |
|
MB:
Asus A7N8X Deluxe |
 |
|
Came with the MB. |
 |
|
Heatsinks on the nVidia chipset |
 |
|
It has to go, because I already got the waterblock for it... |
 |
|
Graphics card:
ATI Radeon 9700 PRO, 128MB DDR. |
 |
|
Heatsinks with fan, have to go... |
 |
|
It was alittle bit shaky to remove this heatsinks, because even tought I had removed the plastic clips that hold it in place, the heatsinks was stuck to the CPU hard, and I dident know how much force I could put on it or if there was something else holding it together. |
 |
|
But it was the cooling paste that hold it so tight. |
 |
|
Graphics card. |
 |
|
CPU:
AMD Barton 2800+ runs at 2.083GHz |
 |
|
The hose I got was alittle to large so I had to use some tools to screw on the nipples that hold them in place. Thats why I conected everything first and then put them in place. |
 |
|
The waterblockes I got was:
CPU block: INNOVACOOL V3 WATERCOOLER
Chipset & Graphics card: INNOVAGRAPH-O-MATIC VGA/NB |
 |
|
Removed the backplate of the Chieftec case and let the powersupply rest on the bottom plate inside the case. Then the radiator fits perfectly ontop, and I dont need to make some new holes in the case side.
Radiator: INNOVARADI SINGLE 120
Fan: PAPST FAN 120CM 26dB |
 |
|
|
 |
|
Put in staffthread to make a shelf for the watertank. |
 |
|
|
 |
|
|
 |
|
|
 |
|
Pump:
EHEIM 1048 |
 |
|
|
 |
|
The hoses goes like this:
-> Radiator
Tank
Pump
CPU
MB Chipset
Graphics card
Radiator -> |
 |
|
Started filling the system with distilled water, but I ran out of it so I took normal tap water, and I also put in alittle of this antialgefluid. |
 |
|
To be extra safe I put silicon on the pump aswell. |
 |
|
More than I need of every thing. |
 |
|
Found the floppy from an old computer. Do people still use thos things? |
 |
|
Hard drive:
Seagate Barracuda V, 80 GB.
More than I need for a computer that only going to have Battlefield 1942 on it...
Also put a silent 80mm fan infront of the HD.
Fan: PAPST 80mm 1500rpm 12dB. |
 |
|
To get the most out of the memory and the dual channels, I got 2x256MB PC 3200 memorys. |
 |
|
To prevent that the hot air that comes out of the powersupply going back in through the radiator. Im leading the hot air away from the computers. |
 |
|
This looks much better then what I resonly got. |
 |
|
What my old system did look like. |
