Water Cooling PC's
Ok. Who's into it. I'm about to get back into the game and just wondering what everyone's setup is. Won a danger den kit off of ebay with a dual 120mm fan rad and just a cpu block. I might add in a northbridge block but I'm not sure if you can water cool the 780i motherboard.
Q6600 @ 3Ghz air (can do 3.6 easily). I had it at 3.8Ghz but fried my 680i memory voltage controller/regulator
evga 780i
Ballistix DDR2 1066 (2 gigs) (highest I got it is 1100 or something)
Dual BFG 8800 GT in SLi (probably put them on their own water system so they dont keep the heat up on the cpu)
So what ya got?

Used to do it, and had fun but no more. I spend that money on guitars.
You can see some finely detailed and well thought out rigs here,

I have thought about doing it, but I cant get over the fact that if something happens to one of those lines....there goes your system

The fluid used is not conductice to electricity, so it's not supposed to harm your system...
BUT
In this case, the fluid leaded into a PCI slot and ruined it as it dried. Other electronics were unharmed.
For those of you who need a lesson in electronics and WHY water destroys them, maybe this can help you grasp a few theories...(http://www.instructables.com/id/Mine...-Submerged-PC/)
