    NZXT Announces The KRAKEN G10 GPU Bracket

    I share your view. I would never want to shove cheap china ebay stuff on my $700 dollar gpu. Im sure it will work fine, but Id rather pay another $20-30 for something reputable for peace of mind.

    Constant running/Open Water Loop

    Thanks I plan on doing a buildlog once I start this project, but it probably wont happen until I get my winter layoff from work, by then I should have some money and i'll have the time. I Nuclear cooling tower would look pretty snazzy in the top of my house, alas I have a feeling the...

    Constant running/Open Water Loop

    Pretty much this. There is a average of 5m (16ft) of snow each winter. Also Fenris, thanks for all your input. I am thinking of giving the Heat Transfer Plates a try honestly. However I wont have time for this project until the winter sadly :(

    Constant running/Open Water Loop

    Ok wow, seems I am getting a lot of environmental flak here. To address some points, I am not on a well it is the city water supply, and there is no water meter. Welcome to Newfoundland Canada. Second I would consider my current water usage lower then the average citizen of this city...

    Constant running/Open Water Loop

    This would be a lot harder to flush when cleaning. Also it means some waterlines would have to be outside, and since we have cold winters here the lines would freeze fast. The lines would have to be properly insulated which can become pretty costly.

    Constant running/Open Water Loop

    I’ll just add an extra drain to the sewer line, not hard at all, or since the water will be under pressure it won’t be hard to get it across the basement and tee into an existing drain line. Yes exactly. The idea is to get the most bang for my buck. I might take the time to actually crunch...

    Constant running/Open Water Loop

    Another excellent Idea. This is why I love discussing things before doing them. This would be cheaper and probably more efficient.

    Constant running/Open Water Loop

    Ok thanks. The tap water is always cold so temp wont be an issue. Did you have a look at my diagram though? Would it be beneficial to add multiple Plate Heat Exchangers the way I showed?

    Constant running/Open Water Loop

    OK. So this plan has the constant flowing loop on one side of the Plate Heat Exchanger, with the closed loops of the PC on the other side. It makes sense, however the PC loop would still need a pump and a reservoir. Also would this Plate heat be efficient enough or would I still need Radiators...

    Constant running/Open Water Loop

    Sounds like an interesting idea. However I have no idea where to get a plate heat exchanger or how much one would cost.

    Constant running/Open Water Loop

    Ya that makes sense however putting the PC in the basement its really an option since I like looking at it. I would like to get this desk in the future. http://redharbinger.com/ Also what cants you water block, you can get CPU GPU HDD NB SB RAM, I guess the only thing you can water block...

    Constant running/Open Water Loop

    I did plan on installing a few ball valves along the loop. One right off the main to shut down everything and then another in the PC room to shut off the loop when the PC isn't running, that way I wouldn't have to go into the basement every time. A manifold is a great idea for future expansions...

    Constant running/Open Water Loop

    Since the water coming from the City Main is about 5-10⁰C it would be as cold or colder then what any radiator set-up would get me. I would just dump the water into the sanitary outlet also in the basement similar to a sink. I am not sure how long I will be here, but I am guessing the...

    Constant running/Open Water Loop

    So I recently bought my first house and am thinking of using this to upgrade my water cooling system in my PC. Its currently just a small 240mm Rad Pump and CPU block. The option I was thinking of are: 1) Run some tubes down to the basement and put the radiator, and pump in the basement. Logic...

    Crytek: Graphics Are “60% Of The Game”

    50 - 50 For me. Seriously I want both a good story and nice graphics. However that doesn't mean super realistic looking. A nice stylized graphic can look amazing as well.

    First Watercooling build, critique me?

    Build: http://imgur.com/a/U8UmL Still needs some tweaking. The Tubes are too long and I put the CPU block retention plate on upside down :S Also I realize the back fan isn't spinning, its because the tube is pushed into and blocking it. Don't worry its turned off at the fan controller...

    Squealing noise coming from New Titan card

    My 7970 had awful coil whine at first, but after a few 5 hour gaming run it went away. Stress it for a bit before RMAing it, might correct itself.

    Minecraft Sales Top 15 Million in 2012

    Did you ever like Lego? Not much point to that but it was lots of fun. Minecraft is similar except with added complicated features like redstone. Sure the graphics are not great but if it was designed with something like Cry Engine 3 no computer would be able to run it.

    VP Meets With Game Industry Representatives

    Did anyone here actually read the article video. He isn't on a blame game crusade, he is just civilly investigating the matter. Sure we agreed that video games don't cause violence or Hollywood is worse but at least he didn't sit down and start preaching video games caused this shooting.

    Oakley Unveils Airwave Ski Goggles

    Actually quite impressed, especially if the $600 price tag stays. Considering high end goggles usually cost $250-300 anyway seems like a nice deal.

    Is Windows 8 A Make-Or-Break Moment For Ballmer?

    When you consider that the average consumer doesn't actually buy windows and just uses the default on there (dell,hp,sony,asus,msi,etc) computer, windows 8 will do fine.
