    First the reservoir broke. They're sending me a replacement, but I want a working PC, soooooo...

     
    I used a short PVC pipe to "fix" it. The tubes are just kitchen sink hose, 10ft for $7 at Lowes.

     
    That wasn't good enough, had some issues, like leaking 1 drop per hour. Not bad but didn't want an escalation. So I just grabbed a similarly sized rubber joint with hose clamps. Works better and no leaks

     
    Just waiting for a real CPU block and my second 1070. Front radiator is push-pull, top radiator is Push.

    RogueLizard got a reaction from Tristerin in Alcohol is bad for acrylic. Was cleaning reservoir...   
    no, I got 10 feet from Lowes for $7. It's fiberglass reinforced clear vinyl I think, same shit used in most AiOs.
     
    yeah I got one of my 240mm rads from a $50 AiO off ebay and the other off amazon for $20. Combined those with the $35 pump from amazon and the $7 tubing
     
    its easy tbh, and you can use basic antifreeze. Most AF is ethylene glycol/water premix, the EG is an anti corrosive that lets you mix metals. I am using 2 aluminum rads and a copper block atm. 75c on all 6 cores at 4.6ghz 1.4v.

    With an avatar like that, I'm not surprised that's your only true comment contribution to this entire website. Yes I know where it's from.
     
    Cougar makes some decent cases. I have an MX-330 myself. But cougar needs to take that abhorrent trash off the market immediately. That's not a case. It's a parts stand.

    Read the very first sentence of Post #1.
     
    The answer to your question is that it doesn't matter whether it's for PC cooling or toilets. It's fucking PVC. It's plastic. It doesn't matter.

    Cooler is some chinese shit off ebay. One 240mm rad came with it and I got the other off amazon. Pump sucks, getting a different one at some point.
     
    Idle and gaming temps are fine, full load temps are crap, cuz the pump can't move the liquid fast enough. Idling with Chrome + AdBlock + Tampermonkey at 35c. Liquid is antifreeze/coolant 50/50 premix. Using it in another rig with a similar mod.

    I have more fans and some splitters coming in soon, so I'll be doing push-pull on the front rad. Not like the i5 needs it, 65c max load

    144hz is lame. Just my opinion. Just turn off vsync and let the frames free
