Finally got around to doing this project up. baught a cheap $15 jigsaw and cut out the hole I needed.
I posted about this over at the alternative modding section but maybe you would all like to see how i did.
I also wanna say this... Anyone who complains about a V1200 being too small to watercool can come see me.
I have watercooled two SFF rigs now. a micro atx tower and this one all with 1/2" tubing.
Parts
The cooling
- Apogee 1U 775
- Aquaextreme MP-01
- Liang D5
- BIP3 Black
- 3x Panaflo 1J Medium speed fans
- 7ft Masterkleer 1/2/ x 7/8
- 20 Stainless Worm clamps
- Brass hose coupler for a T cap
- Black Poly T
- 4 Copper 5/8 Elbows
- Lian Li PC-V600 Black
The Gear
- Intel Pentium E2160 SLA3H-L2 Conroe 1mb
- XFX nVidia 650i Ultra
- 2gb Corsair PC2-5400 4-4-4-13
- GeForce 7900GT
the hole
the hole round two after none of my screwholes lined up.
there are 4 CU right angles in this loop. bet you cant find the 4th one.
that is an apogee 1U for 775. the only block that would fit without getting highly restrictive 90s. like, moreso restrictive than the 90s already in there.
Fully assembled for initial testing. i ran the pump overnight with no fans, but woke up and wired the thing. its very quiet minus some motor noise from the fans.
OC testing will still be to come. Ive had some issues with high fsb on my motherboard, but it ran 3.2 with 1600 fsb decently. using the 8x multi. takes about 1.56 volts to do that kinda fsb, and my board has wicked vdroop so i gotta mod it. pushing 1.6 leaves it with liek 1.54 which wont be enough to find the chips top end. i left it running orth at 3.45@1540 fsb and came back to it rebooted, so who knows.
even with that stupid high voltage, and my gpu in there, she runs 51 per core which is decent i guess. My opteron with RBX was a lot cooler running but i guess intels are particularly hot either way you slice it.
im going to florida for a few weeks, so i wont be able to really mess with it this weekend, but ill come back and break it some more.
