Eh who knows maybe I will mutate into some midget who solves crimes related to ceramic craft stores and tracks down calendar theft.

No, just devolve to a eyrie goo and then begin consuming all life forms that come into your path.

Frosty: A lot of people using Water Chillers in the overclocking world use Tygon R-3603 with no problem.

I might point out that, depending on the heatload that you're applying, your freezer probably won't be able to handle any decent overclock. This is because freezers are designed to keep a low(ish) temperature in an enviroment which has almost no heatload. (Except the losses through the insulation and the warm air when you open the freezer door.) What hardware are you using this on ?

What kind of waterblocks are you using ? Most of the chiller guys use all-copper blocks to stop the acrylic and rubber cracking.

I hope you're going to use Armaflex to insulate the piping runs. Remember to keep the pipes short, as long pipes add to the heat load. You'll also want to keep an air-tight seal around your CPU socket to stop condensation. Again this can be done with Armaflex sheeting.

Finally I'd suggest you get some hose clamps on the joints:


Good luck.

 

You can get ethanol at hardware stores... so I don't think you should have any problems. The shelf name is "Methylated Spirits", just check the bottle to see what percentage it is.

"The Flamer" ? does this stuff burn ?

kv .............. Don't get any leaks !!!!!

 

Thanks mom

I am using very high quality Swiftech blocks. I have very high quality insulating materials to prevent condensation/heat gain. My old fridge for this project is powered by a very powerful compressor that uses an older Freon (that's no longer used due to environmental damages). The fridge section (not freezer) turns all the food into blocks of ice if I put the thermostat setting half-way. If I increase the thermostat setting to full, than I will probably have a cryogenics lab inside that old fridge. As for hose clamps, well DUH! The plastic hose clamps supplied with the blocks are a joke so I threw them out after a good laugh. I am using stainless steel hose clamps for this project.

Here are some pictures of my blocks:




and thats the northbridge block


Oh and here r my system specs:

CPU: AMD XP 2500+ Mobile (Oce'd to 2.3Ghz)
GPU: ATI Radeon X1950 Pro 512mb AGP edition
RAM: Samsung PC3200 2x1024mb CAS: 2.5-3-3
PSU: Corsair VX 550W

I can't tell if that's a thankful reply or a sarcastic reply.

Regardless of having "High Quality Waterblocks", Delrin is a plastic and will expand at a different rate to Copper. Swiftech also use rubber to seal, which doesn't like the cold and the more exotic liquids that chillers need. I don't question that Swiftech are high quality, I use them myself. (Storm Rev2.)

I'm only trying to help.

 

Well it's a little bit of both

I appreciate your reply to my topic (thanks!). I sometimes I take my sarcasm 2 far (my apologies). The sad part about sarcasm, is it's like The United States laws: badly written and randomly enforced (hope that didn’t offend any 1 )

I have a quick question... Is that pump in the tank going to be able to handle pumping the fluid through that piping all the way up a story??

I think this much work for a few MHz is much ado about nothing. As much as I enjoy tweaking I've never been bitten by the watercooling bug. I suppose it was fun in the early Pentium days as a MHz meant something. Now your videocard does much of the work and CPU speed is less important.
And using the wrong coolant will eat your aluminum stuff.

Do they make a refrigerated heat exchanger that mounts in a similar fashion. I'm guessing this was nearest the cpu ?

I Don't have any aluminum in the system XD. BTW, what the hell is that in the picture ? looks like some hobo version of a water block... I wouldn't be surprised if that block leaked XD..
