I got my water loop up! never did hard tube, or for that matter
any tube work before, this, being my 1st computer build, is also my 1st water cooling adventure.
I have a 24 degree Celsius temp, no leaks and the thing is so quiet, I was wondering if it is even working! Today I am going to put a water flow indicator and a proper drain
plug on the bottom of the radiator (If Thermaltake didn't stop selling the Core P7, I'd need 2 more radiator, 2 pumps and 8 more fans, hope someone there see this!).
When I first watered up the unit (made sure pump never rand dry, really cool on/off jumper button for PSU,
that is a cool tool!) - when I 1st started filling, the pump was real loud,
I guess it is normal for it to quiet down once filled (left the 1 capped hole open and all air is out of system) - maybe that is why it is so quiet? I basically did this build by help form
generous people here and youtube videos. Now I just have to learn a bit about how computers work - the real hard, technical stuff!
I will do better wiring, the bars are just there for the pic, but will be moved or gone, just thought some G Skill Royal Z users might want to see then, since they are just a bigger version of the RAM lighting. So proper draining fittings, flow indicator an the Thermaltake RGB fittings (!) going on today, the wiring for them gonna be a bitch!
I know this may look a bit silly to some, but I like the artistic aspect of the open frame cases/RGB. I'm just starting, so I know I'll get better, because it is really fun to do
and I think I can be good with practice. Be well and safe wherever you are!
