Project: Humidity-----Status: FINISHED!
Hey everyone,
I'm building my first watercooling loop, with a bong cooler, in the next few days. I thought I would make a fun project log out of it, since I'm very excited for it. It's also called project humidity, because it's probably going to make my room very humid, which will be one of the problems I need to deal with.
And the best part about this watercooling loop? It will cost UNDER $150, and outperform most, if not all, radiator-based high-end watercooling.
Here's what will be in it:
-Dtek Whitewater LE---Received from Dtek!
-Danger Den Maze4---Received from lilneel12, thanks!
-MasterKleer 7/16" tubing---Received from McMaster.com
-Via Aqua 1800---Received from Dr. Foster And Smith (online merchant)
-4'-5' bong cooler---BUILT! ~5'
-Distilled Water---Have 4 gal.
Via Aqua 1800-
I recieved the Via Aqua 1800 today and tested it in the sink, it was very quiet, no problems what so ever. I still need to figure out a way to hook it up with a filter, this is an open loop and I don't want anything screwing up my water. I bought the Via because it was $1 more, and had 100 more GPH than the 1300. Online it said it had 6ft. head, but the manual says it is ~7ft. head.
Maze4 for my 9800Pro (Flashed to XT)-
A classic waterblock is good condition
"Wye" attachement for bong
20' of Masterkleer-Not using all of it
3 gal. blue translucent bucket, smaller/lower profile than 5 gal, and see through to watch waterline
