My enermax 400watt I watercooled plus my 2 CPU's 933 intel's. All with coppertubing and a 55gallon drum outside my house in the ground. All is running in the suction side of the E-Heim pump, therefore I get airleaks if any leaks and no waterleaks. So far no problems. Now my harddrives are still to noisy, I hate them. <IMG SRC="modules/phpBB_14/images/smiles/icon_confused.gif"> My next PC will be all memory preferable 250gig like my total harddrives are right now <IMG SRC="modules/phpBB_14/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif">
<BR>Sorry don't know how to post the pictures. I don't overclock just noise was my problem and partailly still is.

Wow, that sounds worth taking a look at! You might take a look at the drive silencing articles here. BTW, I've asked Kurt to see what we can do to let people post pics & such here.

Thanks, I was trying but somehow I don't get it with the URL link that comes up first. Have the pics on my harddrive as jpg's.
<br>Sorry didn't get it what and how to put my jpg's in that line.
<br>Would be nice if you could "enlighten" me <IMG SRC="modules/phpBB_14/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif">

Thanks Kurt,
<br>Yes, BellSouth gives me 10mb which is plenty more then I need except I never set it up, never did anything with it and never bothered with. If you are interested how about give me a e-mail and I send them to you guys and you can post them in anyway you are pleased with. <IMG SRC="modules/phpBB_14/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif"> If you think it is worth it. I have a second old computer AT Powersupply that I also watercooled since that fan was the noisiest one of them all. They all go to my drum outside of the house. E-Heim pump I mounted in the drum. right now my drum-water is 85.5F (Florida) CPU's are running 87F respective 88F. Hoses are reinforced plastictubes so they don't collapse from the suction. pump runs allways 24hrs, at night it goes down to 83F and the CPU's go with it, seems for the last month they where always 2F above the water. In January the water and CPU's where almost identical 74F.
<br>So far I can only recommend this way of cooling. I don't think that my enermax is still under warranty after what I did to it, but then it works. <IMG SRC="modules/phpBB_14/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif"> Thanks
