Thanks to all
As about temp of CPU
AMD Athlon X2 4000+ @ 2.1Ghz overclocked at 2.9Ghz
Normal temp = 31 C
On Ex-load for 2 hours Temp =40 C

Room Temp = 35 C
Here is the pic of my radiator & home made pump, Full coper Radiator is from old Oil cooled Machinary from local scrap yard.

No reseviour used, since my radiator can hold 675ml of coolent.



I always love custom jobs as I sometimes custom make my own waterblocks.

Good job.

One thing though, am I correct in that you are using a modified aluminum heatsink in your custom CPU waterblock? If so, are you not concerned with galvanic corrosion since you are using a copper rad?

My aluiminium heatsink is having "Silver Flash" coating on it. I am using Non-modified MB-Chipset Heatsink. And accouding to Galvnic table and all galvanic corrosion calculations on these two metals results in a lifetime period of more then 70 years.

long time..................So no worry of galvanic corrosion.

Nice...I just finished a set up with an copper racing oil cooler and some clear acrylic radiators. I'll try to get some pics up this weekend after I remount the waterblock on my new 9800gtx.

WOW!!!! That is incredible! I think you must be some sort of genius to design and build something like this!! Not only am i impressed with the cooler, the entire case is a beauty.

Thanks to all.
AS per espslyxerx2's Question , My pump is made from old printer head motor (HP-640 inkjet) and some plastic molded pumping unit.

Since in small town like my, it's hard to kind a DC PUMP. so i made it my self. I can pump 20 liters of water in 53 sec. at 12v dc.

Mr. Quaduser can you explain why are you asking.
If your asking about room temperature. I live in Jodhpur, India ,its a hot place average room temp is around 35C. Since i am not having any type of room cooling. Just a room fan. That's it .
So my pc use to run at very high temp at normal box pack Cpu heatsink and fan, about 65c at normal running.

This high temp inspired me to do some thing...and you all can see what i came to.

Thanks

Man this is awsome, i wish i had the enginuity and skills to make something like this. I love it how u made this from and old raidiaor, printer moter and heatsink, which probably cost you next to nothing; and yet it works as well if not better than something you would pay £150 for! Nice Job

thanks To Mr. pingu 12, Mr. eklipz330 and V3NOM .

Well i am planning to update my water cooling kit to CPU and CHIPSET water block made from copper plates i recently got from scrape.

Time problem... Works as web-developer. Only after job hours for my pc, But Hope to update soon and post new pics soon...

Thanks to all

Here are new updated pic of my rig. With new full copper homemade cpu water block and motherboard water block. with some cable management of fan cable . And side panal fan and power connector brackets.
hope you like it.




























hmmm imo if i were in your position i would have made a wooden case with acrylic side panel ^^ just really hate the top and front of acrylic cases. dvd drives r such a turn off lol

Nice rig!

One thing I noticed is that the HDD is vertical instead of the usual horizontal setup. Wouldn't that be possibly bad because of the point load it makes on the spindle?

Also, any plans on adding a dust filter for your intake fans to preserve your nice and clear case?
