PCS really need more water-cooling systems?..COMMENT WHAT YOU!

[NMEBowen]

just looked a little further into that fishtank pc and the person who owns it has kept it running solid for 3 years!!!!

Wow! that's awesome!

I dont like waterxooling, i go with the original, water and electronics do not mix, and this is why i go with air, if it was completely copper pipes then i might consider this, it will be much more reliable and less likely to burst, i will be keeping with my titan thank you

I think you'll agree that my loop doesn't have all that much tubing in it, and the tubing I did use is also used for medical purposes. Infact most of my build is crammed full of bitspower fittings It's not even finished yet as I want teh CPU to be cooled first, then teh GPUs and I plan on adding one final GTX 560 Ti instead of that GT 440 down bottom + a 480mm rad.

If you do your WC properly there's probably as much chance of a leak (not burst) as there is a motor on a fan bursting into flames and igniting your entire PC

Yeah I remember reading about another person who did a similar thing like this in CustomPC mag, the problematic part was stopping the oil from leaking out of teh case as it corroded most of the substances he tried to use to build the case haha.

plonker why didnt he just use a fishtank? i bet he used perspex and it couldnt hold the pressure of the oil inside.

 

[Sleinous]

I believe it was something else. When I have time ill find teh article again

A bit harsh given you know none of the details

 

[NMEBowen]

i dont think it was that harsh if you had a massive container of oil on your desk would you hold it in something you bodged together not that the majority of us would have a massive container of oil anywhere in our houses apart from the deep fat fryer or possibly a radiator.

Yeah but since you don't know what he was using as a case, you have no idea whether he bodged it together or not .

think that means he did try to build the case himself and concidering it failed id call it a bodge

Tbh I think it looks great but is a stupid idea

We were actually talking about a case that Sleinous mentioned a friend had been dealing with, not the pictured build earlier.

Ah.. It seems a bit tricky though... How would you upgrade that setup as it would be super sticky?
