So I just built up a comp like the one they made in the sub 4k this month. The only major difference was i used a Intel Q9450 yorkfield and a single 9800gx2.
So I got it all setup and im looking and tomshardware installation guide and they have theirs setup different than i have mine set up. it goes Pump to the 120 to the 220 to the pump. My question here is will this hurt performance?
Question 2 is how much fluid should this whole system hold. The MCR 120 kit says it will take about 16fl oz. I filled mine up Sloshed it around made sure it was all lower than the resivor and even shortered the power pin to get the pump running and it only took about 18fl oz. is that enough or is there a big air pocket in it somewhere i didnt get out.
im only concerned cuase ive fired up my system and its at about 45celsius at idle. Its about 85 degrees room temp so im not expecting ice cold numbers but i thought they might be a bit lower. im gonna go ahead and guess at load it will be near 60 and thats pretty high. i dont want to kill my cpu after all
Anyway thanks for the help everyone
