Nanook reacted to Chiyawa in Will this Case Fit a 38mm Thick Rad Top Mount?
https://www.phanteks.com/Eclipse-P500A.html
Scroll down a bit until you see the specification. It listed the top radiator clearance is 65mm.
Generally, in most modern case, if you see a large gap between the the motherboard I/O cut out and the top of the case, the case will likely to have 55mm-65mm clearance for radiator and fan, and can fit most standard AIO coolers.
However, you should always check the manufacturer website for more information of the case, radiator clearance, fan support and other important information.
Regards,
Chiyawa

The top radiator clearance is 65mm.
38mm + 25mm = 63mm
This is gonna be a tight fit.but shoulf work

Nanook reacted to IainC in In a Mixed Metal copper and Aluminum Loop, which is Oxidized and which is Reduced?
Short answer- the copper will eat the aluminium. Given the latter is (relatively) cheap, just replace when you start to see goo accumulating in your block. A sacrificial cathode will just add more goo more quickly 🙂 ... but will protect your components. Custom loops are, for me, about best performance, so gumming up your blocks is more of an issue than stripping ions from components. Just my $0.02 mind

i think there was an inwin 909 case as well that had a back mount but dont remember.
inwin 982

Nanook got a reaction from da na in Aluminum vs Copper
For the longest time copper has been king; however, now there is research stating that while aluminum can't transfer heat as well as copper, but aluminum does dissipate it into the air better.
Basically, Copper is better at heat transfer and aluminum is better at heat dissipation.
So what cools better now? Is copper still king, or were we wrong the entire time? Maybe a new copper/aluminum allow would be better than single elements?

I didn't think of that. Good observation.

Nanook reacted to jaslion in Aluminum vs Copper
Almost all coolers nowadays are a copper heatpipe aluminum fin array hybrid. Taking advantage of the metals strongpoints whilst avoid their weaknesses.

Yeah, so basically, infinite negative pressure, infinite temperature, and quantum physics allows it to be at two places in the same time

Nanook reacted to pythonmegapixel in What is Your Aesthetic Dream Build?
Honestly I don't know.
I really love the matte black look, so if I could get the inside looking black as well (i.e black PCBs and coolers; no lighting and no cables everywhere) then I'd still want the window. But if it didn't fit with the external aesthetic than I think I would want a solid panel.

Nanook reacted to For Science! in Anyone Ever Played with Luminol in a Loop?
Yes, it can, especially if compared to things like luminol or fantasy physics. As for UV coolants, there are plenty to choose from, take mayhems range for example

Nanook reacted to HM-2 in Anyone Ever Played with Luminol in a Loop?
Chernenkov radiation in its most widely recognised sense is created by beta particles- electrons- released during fission.
It has nothing to do with neutrinos as they're uncharged particles; the defining characteristic of Chernenkov radiation is the fact it is created by charged particles. The equivalent for uncharged particles such as neutrinos is Askaryan radiation.

Nanook got a reaction from For Science! in Anyone Ever Played with Luminol in a Loop?
It's a little more nuanced than that. It is true that nothing can go faster than the speed of light...in a vacuum. However, light slows down a little when it is traveling through a medium like glass or a liquid. So a particle like a neutrino can go faster than the speed of light in the medium, and in doing so it creates a "sonic boom" that emits light.
-
Nanook got a reaction from For Science! in Anyone Ever Played with Luminol in a Loop?
Yes but I don't think you would need a reactor to replicate the underlying principle. Just particles going faster that light in a liquid medium. Kinda like when a plane breaks the sound barrier and a sonic boom results. Particles going faster than light in a medium result in a release of light.

Ok, this is my first hardline water-cooled build, personally, I think I did OK - I've learnt a lot for next time but here it is (It looks Blue in the pics but in person it actually is White)

Copied and pasted the specs from Instagram so I didn't have to type it again. Wiring isn't completed at this time. Hooked it up quick to run some benchmarks and ensure everything was working properly. Thanks all!
