Hi, I'm wondering if anyone knows the pipe ID and OD of the Corsair Hydro H100i GTX. I need to find compression fittings for it (if possible) otherwise I'll just use G1/4 nipples with some sort of pipe fastener. Thanks, Alec

Hello everyone, I am doing an exercise that goes as follows: Write a program that creates a child process and establishes with it a communication channel through a pipe. The parent process reads an integer and a string from stdin and sends both through the pipe. The child process should read those values from the pipe and print them. a. Solve the exercise by first sending an integer and then a string in two separate write operations; b. Solve the exercise by using a structure to send both values in one write operation. So far I have this: #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <string.h> #define BUFFER 50 static const int LEITURA = 0; static const int ESCRITA = 1; static const int A = 0; //Question A static const int B = 1; //Question B struct build { int n; char string[10]; }; static int getPrompt(int mode, char* s,char *buffer, int size, struct build build1){ // Get line with buffer overrun protection. if (s != NULL) { printf ("%s", s); fflush(stdout); } if(mode == A){ long n; fgets(buffer,size,stdin); sscanf(buffer,"%d",&n); printf("\nString: \n"); fgets(buffer,size,stdin); return n; }else { fgets(buffer,size,stdin); build1.n = (int) strtol(buffer,&buffer,10); char *ptr = build1.string; ptr = buffer; } return 0; } int main() { int ds[2], status; pid_t pid; char buffer[10]; struct build build1; //Se bem sucedido cria o pipe if(pipe(ds) == -1) { perror("Pipe failed."); return -1; } //Se bem sucedido cria um processo filho pid = fork(); if (pid < 0){ perror("Process failed:"); exit(-1); } //Codigo Pai if(pid > 0){ //Fechamos o que não é utilizado close(ds[LEITURA]); int questao=2; while(questao!= 0 && questao!=1){ printf("Question number: \n"); scanf("%d", &questao); } if(questao==A){ //Escrevemos no pipe o pretendido int k = getPrompt(A,"Number: ", buffer,sizeof(buffer), build1); write(ds[ESCRITA],&k,sizeof(k)); write(ds[ESCRITA],&buffer,sizeof(buffer)); }else{ //Escrevemos no pipe o pretendido getPrompt(B,"Number and String: ", buffer,sizeof(buffer), build1); printf("%d , %s\n", build1.n,build1.string); } //write(ds[ESCRITA],); //Codigo filho }else{ char buffer_output[BUFFER]; char buffer_copy[BUFFER]; int n=0; close(ds[ESCRITA]); while(read(ds[LEITURA], &buffer_output, sizeof(char))>0){ *(buffer_copy+n) = *buffer_output; n++; } *(buffer_copy+n) = '\0'; char *ptr = buffer_copy; int m = (int) strtol(ptr,&ptr,10); printf("Number: %d\nString: %s", buffer_copy); close(ds[LEITURA]); exit(1); } return 0; } Some of the comments are in portuguese. Now I am missing some things but before I do them I would like to know how to solve the current issues. 1->fgets does not wait for input and just runs through (on function getprompt, sscanf seems to wait for input but I am not sure this is correct so I only had it there once for testing) 2-> result of strtol and way I am implementing it (not sure if it is the right thing to do here) 3-> If I do strtol on a char array does the number get taken out? Or does the pointer advance to the first non digit?

Hi, So my mounting of my Corsair H110i GTX cooler has been bothering me. I have a Corsair 760T case. As you can see in the pictures, the tubes are bent between the radiator and the fan, and the tube is very stiff so I'm worried it might damage the tubing or pull it off the radiator. Should I turn my radiator around so the tubing is to the front of the case instead of the back? Have I mounted it wrong? Pics:

I am thinking of adding a custom loop to my PC but I have no idea what tube or tube size to get. I know I should get a tygon based tube as it wont leak as much plasticiser but what's the difference between tygon and bio tygon? I am also stuck on what tube size to get I want a thick wall so it wont kink as easy but I don't know what inner diameter to get Iv'e heard that 13 mm or 9.5 mm are the best to go with but all the different measurements are confusing as well with the fittings. I want to go with bits power compression fittings as I want the peace of mind that the compression fitting will stay on and I also like the look of their carbon fittings Loop parts if interested Radiator: Alpha NexXxoS ST30 Full Copper 420mm CPU Block: EK Water Blocks EK-Supremacy MX - Acetal EK Water Blocks Pump and Resivour: EK-D5 XRES 100 Revo PWM - incl. Pump Coolant: EK Water Blocks EK-Ekoolant EVO Clear (Premix 1L) x2 colouring: Mayhems Pastel Concentrate, Red

Hello everyone! Ive just bought all the parts for my new PC. And yes, its overkill. I know. However, its the first time im doing water cooling that isn't closed loop. Here is my parts list: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/jY7BJx Now, since this is my first time, i need some help on what parts i should/need to get, but i need a full list even including like the compression fittings. I have watched a load of youtube videos, but i still haven't worked out all the parts. If anyone can help me out, i will be eternally grateful. From what i know so far, im planning on a triple 120mm rad in the roof, and a dual 120mm extra fat in the bottom of my NZXT Phantom 820 case. I know about CPU/GPU blocks, and reservoirs etc, but i have no idea between the different ones. Same goes for pumps. This is where i need help haha! I need to know EVERYTHING i need to get to be able to do it! Low-Mid range prices would be nice! Can anyone help? Thank you very much in advance!

"If you own this case, you must join this club" - Sir Richard Branson, Founder of Virgin Group, 2011 You are someone who enjoys the finer aspects of life. You have an office of leather bound books, mahogany paneled rooms and you need a case that is as powerful and yet subtle as you are. The NZXT 440 is simply not good enough; nay such a grotesque design could satisfy your unstoppable drive for perfection. You drive a Mercedes, not because you had the money, not because of the quality, but because you can. You want a case that is as spacious as your S Class, as strong as your open gas range, and as precise as your Rolex. The Cooler Master (that name sounds very unrefined, herein refered as CM) Storm Trooper (Herein referred as ST Executive) is a full tower case with the features you have always wanted. A hidden compartment for a spare rolex, or perhaps a few champagne caps. Space for over eight 3.5in HDDs, perfect for your large amounts of corporate data and.. video. Supporting the most expensive motherboard you can find, with 9 expansion slots for your three MSI Gold GTX 970s. A subtle, elegant window that highlights your components the way the frame does to the Mona Lisa. A fan controller that makes audible noises similar to the Vienna Philharmonic playing. Smooth, soft touch, and highly elegant finish. A case this perfect demands a club as perfect. As President of the Royal CM ST Executive Owners' Club, I am proud to say we are currently accepting applications to this prestigious organization. But you say from a passing SL65 AMG, only momentarily lowering your cigar and brandy, why would I need to be a part of this club? Frankly, it is incredibly simple why you would want to be a member. You have to be. Where else can you connect with other refined, educated and cultured individuals such as yourself? Anyone can buy a Define R4 and put their components inside and call it a day. Only a select few are forward thinking enough to invest in a case of this magnitude. Also, being in this club has perks. In business, you need to network. What better way than to network with other professionals who own ST Executives? So, what then are you waiting for? Due to the fact many individuals in this exclusive club wish to remain anonymous, no details need to be provided except photographic evidence that you indeed own a CM ST Executive. Simply grab your most expensive camera, brandy in the other hand and take a photograph of the build, prominently featuring the case and post it to this web page. A CM ST Executive Club specialist will verify the photo is authentic, and allow your name to be posted on this very page. A true honor, no doubt. If you know which version you have, you may post that as well to make model identification clearer. 1. CM Storm Trooper (Executive) Black, Windowed (Second Generation) The most recent variant of the Case, the Windowed executive is akin to the new Mercedes E Series with a large, spacious and grandoise window for displaying all interior components.

CM Storm Trooper (Executive) White, Windowed (Second Generation) Sporty, agile, refined, flirtatious I dare say. A fun, powerful take on the great design comparable to the BMW M3 E90. 3. CM Storm Trooper (Executive) Black, Stealth Grille (First Generation) The first generation is a true classic. So understated, high performance yet little known. An equivalent to the E 63 AMG Wagon. as96 - http://i.imgur.com/yDmVXbk.jpg?1 Do you have a not mentioned, limited run special edition of the case? Have you completed extensive modifications to attain the maximum performance? If so, you could be eligible to be on this special list of Esteemed Members of the club. **This part is all lies, and not meant to be taken seriously Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second is the Colonel in Chief of the exclusive Club.
