Watercooling?

[enforcerfx]

Hey guys, Im looking into my next build that'll hopefully occupy the watercooling system I will be reusing. Question is, I Have NO idea what size tubes, barbs, and fittings it is!

Seeing as I won the computer for a measly 540 bucks after shipping(480.00) on ebay, I never thought I would be going to reuse it, until now.

I have some photos, hopefully you guys can help








































Thanks

They look like 1/2" ID tubes to me...

You want 13mm ID barbs to go with those tubes....

Yeah, definitely 1/2".

the setup is done by DD.

DD would only use 1/2 inlets on all there products. 3/8ths would cause a performance hit that DD wouldnt want.

You'll be safe with 1/2ID inlets and you'll even be safer with 7/16th ID tubing as its harder for the barb area to leak with it.


Make sure you resecure all your o-rings when you drain and refill the system. Old O-rings can lead to leakage issues. If you notice them slightly cracked, apply some vasaline on the rubber oring, and it should extend its life by another 6-8months tops. Its best to replace it if you notice a crack.
