[Alkaz]

oh cool scott, ive no idea what that all is but go for it!

[Stephen!]

Mine leaked.

[scottish]

seriously? LOL

[Stephen!]

seriously? LOL

Well not full on. Liquid is slowly seeping through the reservoir where the barb screws in. Not a big deal. I've put some sellotape around it and it seems to have sealed it for the time being.

You will also need some anti-bacterial stuff. I got "PT Nuke"

[scottish]

Should i get T line, and 10 barbs should be more than enough, correct? (im thinking i'll need 6?)

[Stephen!]

Well you won't need the T-Line if you have a reservoir (which you do)

And you'll need 2 barbs for each component

2 for the CPU block
2 for the radiator
2 for the pump/reservoir

so yeah, 6.

You will also need either o-rings to secure to your barbs to make sure the tubing doesn't come off. You can use zip ties if you have them.

Yeah same, i don't see the point on spending that much just to make it look a little better...

[scottish]

No, but i'm still getting it.

Looks better ;)

[Tim.]

No, but i'm still getting it.

Lol, sorry am i missing something i thought cooling was meant to speed up your pc or something along them lines, why does it make your pc look better?

[scottish]

Blue UV liquid flowing through tubes in your computer ;)

[The Professor]

Blue UV liquid flowing through tubes in your computer ;)

Yeah I got it cos it came with my PC and I have to say it does look pretty impressive :P I don't know anything about it though, I just leave it alone.

[scottish]

Anyone with watercooling atm, what would you advice

1/2" ID (3/4" OD)

7/16" ID (5/8" OD)

which would you advise? both fit on the 1/2" barbs but 7/16 is alot tighter, so less chance of it coming off, i'm also using hose clamps though so.

[Stephen!]

7/16. tighter fit

[scottish]

getting 2m blue 1/2" 2m clear 1/2" 2m clear 7/16" and 1m blue 7/16"
