Mes conseils:

  • Toujours couper les tuyaux avec un cutter pour avoir une coupe bien droite (pas au ciseaux)
  • Vérifier bien le sens de circulation de l'eau, si c'est à l'envers le kit risque de faire beaucoup trop de bruits...

Point forts:

  • Qualité du kit et des différents composants de trés bon à génial...
  • Des tuyaux fluos jaune en standard et de quoi tuyauter 2 ordinateurs sans probléme.

Point faibles:

  • Beaucoup trop de place pris par ce systéme dans votre tour!!!! de 5 emplacements 51/4 sur le papier à 6 pour être franc.
    • 2 emplacements 5''1/4 pour le couple ventilateur et radiateur + de maniére réaliste un 5''1/4 pour éviter de surchauffer votre lecteur de CD/DVD/Disque dur préféré.
    • 2 emplacements 5''1/4 pour le couple détecteur de circulation et contrà´leur de niveau d'eau.
    • 1 emplacements 5''1/4 pour le réservoir, mais vous n'en avez pas besoin à partir du moment ou vous utilisez un piége à bulle d'air Innovatek monté sur la pompe (de 9€ à 25€)
  • Beaucoup trop de vis sur la facade du réservoir à mon gout...surtout que ce sont des vis parker bas de gamme.
  • Des tuyaux de diamétre insuffisant, quelques prises de diamétre supérieure sont néanmoins livré mais pas en nombre suffisants pour changer au dernier moment (cout prohibitif si vous changer toutes les prises d'eau).
  • Le bruit est correct sans plus, les performances moyennes, bonnes pour un pc de bureau ou un home cinema avec un processeur qui ne pédale pas trop vite.
  • Le témoin rotatif de circulation d'eau ne sert à rien sinon à décorer...qui va surveiller 24h sur 24, qu'il tourne? un circuit électronique comme ceux vendu par Innovatek permet de simuler la présence d'un ventilateur, mais il est difficilement adaptable.

In the past 2 weeks, I use to have my watercooling pump (Eheim 1048) making a very bad noise for the first time after 1.5 years of 24/7 operations...and I found this page:
I've done the mods and ......lovely the silence of operations is back!!! thanks to all persons which have tried this mod before! :-) it is really working!

They're is also a lot of internet page on the subject, as usual, google is Your friend!
Some people are really pushing the art of PC case modding to its limit:
  •  AquaSphere is an example...(a small robot also open the door and the inside is even more crazy)
  • Puzzlebox Hellraiser mod
  • WMD (Weapon of Mass Destruction)
But Why the Hell  ;-) still having a computer motherboard inside these beauties? just for seing some blue screen of death :-)

The AGB-O-Matic

The AGB-O-Matic is used for filling and de-aerating a water cooling system. The use of this device is very simple: You just need to plug it onto the EHEIM pump. Then, the pump can suck in the fresh water directly and absolutely free of blow holes.
Despite of the slim design of 50x56x120 mm, the AGB-O-Matic provides a huge filling volume. The tank is leakproofed which makes it possible to transport the device easily. After installing the AGB-O-Matic, the water cooling system is filled though the aparture at the top (see picture).

Details:
The AGB-O-Matic is optimized for the Eheim pumps 1046 and 1048. It consists of glass fibre reinforced plastics.
As standard, the runback flow is equipped with one 8x1 screw connection. The 1/4 inch screw thread makes it possible to use other connectors and therefore to combine the AGB-O-Matic with tubes that have other diameters.

Technical facts:
Weight: 110 g
Material: Glass fibre reinforced plastics
Dimensions (without the pump): 50x56x120 mm
Fits with Eheim 1046 and 1048
Equipped with one 8x1 screw connection
Watercool HTF2-Dual 2.0
The features in detail:
  • Very powerful design with large surface (the copper pipe is more than 6 m long)
  • the cooling liquid flows parallel through the pipes at the same time which helps to avoid streaming loss
  • Turbo fins for optimal heat dissipation
  • Antechamber for the air which provides consistent pressure build-up
  • Optimized for slow rotating fans with a diameter of 120 mm
  • fan installation using included screw threads
  • screw threads at both sides of the cooling unit for installation in or at the case
  • high quality material
  • G ¼ inch screw-in sockets for installation with all connecting systems
  • robust powder coating

Material: Pipes: copper (diameter 8 mm), Fins: aluminium, Sides: stainless steal
Dimensions outside: 285 x 137 x 58 mm
Installation: 8x M4 screw threads on top (for two fans with a diameter of 120 mm), 4x M4 screw threads at both sides (for the installation in or at the case)
Compressive strength: until 30 bar
Surface: black, powder coating, stainless steal, polished
Connection: 2x screw threads G ¼ inch (angel of 90°)
Included in delivery: HT-Flat, instructions for installation, 8x M4 screws, hex-wrench, 2-year-guarantee for pressure tightness and workmanship

Electronic add-on module for flow monitoring

Flow-O-Matic electronic flow monitoring is used for active electronic flow monitoring in the water circulation of your watercooling.It is simply put into the cycle and then emits a signal, as long as a flow is present.It is simply attached to the Main board and the emited signal can be analyzed by the BIOS or suitable software (e.g. MBM). It contains also 2 bue leds.

Dimensions: 120x120x25mm
Voltage: 12 Volt
Air flow: 2,30³/min
revolutions: 2000 r/min
Volume: <36dB

This fan has a very good cooling performance and can still be run at 7 V without losing much performance. Furthermore, it passes the number of revolutions on to the Mainboard.

In the extent of supply 4 screws are included for attachment to the casing or the radiator.

Conclusions

PC1: true Xp2800+ (not Barton) on Nforce2 Asus A7N8X deluxe - 1024Mb
PC2: true XP1700+@2350MHz on Nforce2 Asus A7N8X deluxe -512 Mb

click here to hear my system running on <1 Fan> <2 Fans> <No Fan>

Rating

  • A must for ears, so quiet and so easy to install (only if you reduce voltage of fans from 12V to 5V as on PC2).
  • I recommend you a middle or big tower to install everything inside (as on PC1)
  • I recommend you to choose the smallest radiator available (the senfu on PC1 provide good performance at a noise level you can not hear!!!!)
  • Expensive? yes¨but:
    1. You can use part during years...You must admit that this is not the case with your air cooling radiator. For example: forget you Alpha pal 6035 with your latest XP 3000, it is only validated till 1500MHz, it cost me alone 50â?¬
    2. You can choose a less expensive radiator, or buy an old one from an old car, but you will have to cleaned it properly.
    3. You do not need 2 or 3 ventilators, one is enough.
  • Maintenance? every 6 months check the coolant.

Materials:
  • AMD Athlon XP 1700+ Thoroughbred @ XP 3300+ JIUHB 0308/10 AXDA1700DLT3C XPMW(1,5V) - unlocked multiplier - cost 82€
    This is probably one of the best stepping ever produced as today (6.06.2003) by AMD, far away better then JIUHB, JIUGB and JIUCB with the revision DUT3C. The core is using as default only 1.5V instead of 1.6V (JIU*B stepping)!
    When using 1.55V, this kind of cpu is handling a confortable XP-2800. Pushing it to limit (1.775V) let me reach 2500MHz (FSB:200MHz, multiplier 12,5) this is damn a XP3000+ This CPU also outpassed AMD's Athlon XP 3000+ with Barton core (they run at only 2166MHz and cost 400€). Moreover my CPU is running at 333Mhz or even 400Mhz synchronously with memory
  • Watercooling set from Innovatek bought at Watercooling.de NO I am not a crazy overclocker, but I am SICK of hearing my Volcano 9: you can not stay beside the pc when it is running.
  • Memory 2x256Mb PC333 (=PC2700) Note even better you can buy: PC400 (=PC3200) or PC466 (=PC3700)
