Well, after nearly 2 and a half years of watercooling, it has finally happened. I got a leak.
But no, this is not your ordinary leak. This is a major OMFGWTFBBQ leak.
You see, my pump failed to start up last night, causing my CPU to overheat. For some reason, the CPU got hot enough...
Title says it all. I had a little bit of a problem w/ my watercooling last night on my Athlon XP rig, and I'm still not sure whether the CPU / mobo is good. The pump didn't start up and the thing overheated enough to warp the lucite top on my lock, and guess what, leak. So I can't test the...
I know that the HS mounts for shuttles are not the same as other a-64's. My question is... what mounting system do they use? p4 478? 775? I'm getting a nearly complete shuttle setup for free and was contemplating a WC system in it.
Also, recomendations for LOW PROFILE blocks in 3/8" tubing...

Ok, so here's my question: Will 3/8" masterkleer stretch enough to fit onto 1/2" barbs? IE: the ones that ship w/ dangerden blocks?

Has anyone had any experiece with moniter arms that can be / are designed to mount up-side down? I mean, most are mounted to the desk surface, but I would like it to mount to a shelf above the viewing area w/ the moniters hanging down. I'm going to be having asomewhat small desk and it would...
After finding all the good coupons on the Dell 2005fpw moniter (down to 434 after shipping), I've about decided to ditch my plan of buying two viewsonic 191b's and just get one 191b and one 2205fpw. That way I have a nice wide-screen for movies and a nice screen for gaming.
My only concerns...
Hey guys, in august I head up to college at Purdue University. Cool thing is, they have three or four student machine shops that I can have access to. So, I wanted to get started now on designing myself a waterblock (using CAD) so that when I get up here I can get cutting. Only problem is, I...

After about 30mins of playing with it, I now have what is recognized as an Asus 6800GT w/ 128mb of memory, all 16 pipes, all 6 shaders :D
I dont have any benchmarks or idea of how it really ran at...
Got the urge to try and make me a mousepad out of some plexi today and here's the results:
Dark Shot:

the backing is made of a printout of just straight noise filter on Photoshop and the pad itself is 3/16 plexi from home depot about 5 bucks total supplies to make it!
I'm looking to get some symbols either etched onto the metal of my Lian-Li or on to some plexi (not sure yet).
Basicly, all I need is the words "snow man" translated so that I can be sure that i'm using the right symbols (I've already found a site that has some good ones) and grammer.
Or...

Well, finally got around to putting a decent radiator in my lian li. I was running a BIX single rad through the front, but I wasn't happy with teh tube routing and the fact that it takes up 4 drive bays the way I have it mounted.
