    Clear water cooling fluid

    Can you just buy ethylene glycol (antifreeze component) on the web ? The ethylene glycol itself is actually clear. All the additives that colorize it are there so people notice a spill of the toxic substance. http://www.mpbio.com/product_i...ords=ethylene%20glycol

    Fitting a 120mm fan in the 5.25" drive bays

    Once upon a time I took two bay covers, marked the spot for a 80mm fan in the center, then dremel-ed out a hole (only a small rib of the bay cover connected the two sides of each cover). I then put in holes for a fan grill and used the fan screws through the grill, the bay cover, and into the...

    Good but cheap cookware?

    Go to a restaurant supply store and look for Linoln Wear-Ever pots and pans. They're fairly cheap but cook well (restaurant quality) and are durable enough to last a long time. They make both unfinished and a few types of nonstick versions.

    Looks like an impressive amt of water for a modest system. Nice craftsmanship. You're running three notebook drives strapped to the side there ?

    Case audio question

    http://www.frozencpu.com/produ...C_ATX_Control_Kit.html There's some outfit that sells "Lian Li" PC speakers for $3 but I can't recall which one it is right now. It's getting pretty bad when you have to remember to pull old case speakers when upgrading your system.

    Oldest CPU you are running now???

    I have a notebook (IBM Thinkpad 380D) from 1998 with a Pentium MMX 150 MHz. The battery is useless and, to be honest, I fire it up every other month or so for random old software tasks.

    HTPC suggestions

    I just finished my LC17 build (Silverstone, newegg lists for about $120). It's got plenty of room for my ATX build and still is narrow enough to fit in my home theater cabinet. I sold my old BeyondTV rig to my roommate and he decided to buy a black version of the LC17 as well. His theory was...

    How about a sticky on HTPC case recommendations?

    I just picked up my second Silverstone LC17 for doing an ATX board-based HTPC. They're a steal for $120 and have slots for two 92 mm fans in the front (blow over 6 3.5" bays) and two 80mm fans in the rear. The PSU is nicely ducted such that a "bottom fanned" PSU would create it's own air...

    478 pin mobo

    I don't think PCI-Express was supported on intel chipsets that were around during the socket 478 days. Newegg has a few with VIA chipsets that look like they'd fit what you're asking for and are ~$50. http://www.newegg.com/Product/...80+1070509907&name=478

    IBM Deskstar 75GXP class action

    Glass platters are the main suspect but the lawsuit mentioned a design and manufacturing defect. I am happy to report I got my check this past week. I was surprised to see it since that lawsuit was long forgotten. Although, I had two drives and submitted two forms so maybe I'll get some...

    Seattle residents..... how is Sprint wireless reception?

    I've lived in Seattle for 4 years now, with 3 of those being a Sprint customer. Their service/coverage was normally good, although I always had trouble with big stone buildings at UW campus. The hills, trees, and buildings make Seattle a challenge. I recently switched to Verizon and I tend...

    Case Fan Mounting

    I have used standard screws for years and recently tried using some of those "rubber mounts" on my P180 case. The rubber mounts are a pain to install and I'm really not sure they do anything for already quiet, slower running fans. Damned things took me about an hour to install because I...

    New to water cooling.

    If it's just a CPU cooling loop and won't be anything more then I would suggest just going for large, slow speed air cooling with the e8400. They don't run very hot, they're dual core, and even a really basic kit like the swiftech compact would cool that chip. Top end air would would also cost...

    Quick Home Theater Subwoofer Question

    Are you sure it's not just the "turn on" wire ? Sometimes subwoofers require a line with some voltage on it that's designed to tell the sub to power on. I can't tell you what the turn-on voltage is but maybe you can use a voltmeter and get it off the old unit ...

    First time WC setup

    The water in a water cooling setup doesn't actually get very hot... especially on idle. What version of core temp do you have ? I don't have an 8400 but I do recall people debating the appropriate Tjunction value for that processor when it first appeared.

    a short synopsis: Best Buy brand case fans

    Well, if yate loons are $3.50 at jab-tech and others I don't think I'd go through the hassle of tracking down a Best Buy employee and befriending them. Thanks for the info... it'll help some who need a fan right away and know Best Buy employees.

    Can I chain LEDS to mobo HDD header?

    With HDD leds they're just a quick, short power flash. I bet you could wire a couple LEDs in parallel and not damage your board. LEDs hardly draw any power so I doubt it'll overheat any power delivery circuitry. IIRC most add-on SATA cards have HDD activity headers should you want to show...

    Case suggestions for a small home server?

    I think the real issue is that most really small cases don't provide plenty of 3.5" bays with active cooling. My experience has been that slots filled with drives but no fans blowing over them = hard drives dead in a few years. I'd just go for something like an Antec 900 or Cooler Master...

    My ideal case doesn't exist - I have high-level requirements

    I've often wondered if something like a P190 could fit a second hard drive cage in the lower chamber after removing the fan plate. Basically make two hard drive cages line up one after the other. I bet antec could sell you an extra drive cage for such purposes. The P190 is 3.5" deeper than...

    Need some help with my Antec P182

    The lower bay is completely pull out and you're just supposed to use their special long screws that go through the silicone mounts. It's on pg 5 of the manual and pointed out in the video review http://www.antec.com/us/produc...ails.php?ProdID=81820# .

    How much does a test tube cost?

    Nah, they're < $0.20 each last I bought a pack. You should buy your own replacement and pretend nothing happened if they want $12 each. When we run columns in labs and collect samples in tests tubes we don't wash them because it costs more in time/acetone than it costs to replace the test...

    Upgrade option in Antec Aria

    From http://www.silentpcreview.com/article146-page4.html The PSU label indicates a hefty max current of 18A for the 12V line, and maximum combined power of 280W for the three lines. It's pretty good for a small PSU. The unit has Active PFC and auto-adjust input voltage for 100~240VAC, which...

    Should I replace my Antec P180

    If you've only got a few drives and no exotic cooling setup then there's no need for a case larger than a P180. If you're thinking about watercooling, phase cooling, etc then maybe you should consider a larger case. The P180 is a case with plenty of slots for fans - if you feel you need more...

    Help me decide on a HTPC Case

    I just picked up a Silverstone LC17 http://www.newegg.com/Product/...x?Item=N82E16811163054 for $120 to refresh my old Antec Aria P4 HTPC with a little more room. So far I like it... only downsides I am thinking about are 1) 80mm fans rather than 120's like most quiet computers and 2) how...

    90 degree bends in water cooling?

    If space is so limited that you think you'll need 90 degree bends then something with the pump right on top of the cpu block might be a bad idea. The pump can go just about anywhere on the loop.

    90 degree bends in water cooling?

    His flow rate _estimator_ says the 90 degree fittings drop the GPM a little, but it looks like drops are like 1% less GPM for each crappy nylon 90 degree elbow. Doesn't look like enough to worry about if you're just doing the block.... maybe if you kept adding them to make your own murderbox.

    90 degree bends in water cooling?

    I don't have any numbers to prove it but bends in a tube do cause turbulence in water flow and would increase resistance. If that actually causes any real world performance decreases on a modest system/loop is another thing entirely. If 90 degree bends are going to make things much easier to...
