WC Guide
Ok.
For what YOU want, contact Doobs. He's done a diy wc setup.You can make your own blocks. Copper plate, get it water-jetted, braze together.
Not many cases are made for wc, hence how we mod it in. Go with your idea though Its got potential.
With the res, more vol = smoother temp curves, less = more fluctuations.
A rule of thumb is, less pipe = better + neater

hey guys
i read somewhere that guys use normal fish tank pumps in some custom DIY projects, does that work properly??? i know a pump is just a pump and you get some decent fish tank pumps out there but will it work good for pc cooling?

My question: if i build 3 large copper reservoirs out of rather large diameter copper tube, do you think i'll get enough heat transfer to avoid a radiator all together. i'm talking 10(?)cm diameter tube about 40 cm's high x3 tubes.
Secondly, what should one use a high pressure pump for vs a high flow pump?

This is a problem. Because alot of the case i've looked at, already have 120mm fan holes all over them but not in places where i actually want a radiator. Ok, so then, my next question is, how many radiators, and if i were to use this res setup? I have a very cheap wc kit sitting in its box unused. It has a rather industrial looking rad. Its made by cool wave, are their products any good?
