Going to build a system with a radiator mounted outside my apartment, so need a pump that has enough pressure and flow to push through many meters of tubing. It's pretty cold here in Toronto. I'll move the radiator to inside my (surprisingly quiet and very cold) chest freezer during the summer. My current setup is using a CoolerMaster Hyper TX3 fan on the CPU which keeps the i7 under 55 degrees under full load. Around the same temps when overclocked to 4.4 GHz. The liquid cooling isn't necessary at all - just very fun. --=20 http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist .
