This is Rampart. Start an IV with D5W stat!!
- I’m sorry, the PATA are just not reacting to our efforts.
– You mean you want to give up just because it’s old? That’s not fair!
– It will be ok. There’s no need to add more suffering. Just let it idle until the Blue Screen comes…
It still isn’t Lupus.
Excellent Emergency reference. Should we call in 1A12 to secure the scene?
Maybe they wouldn’t need all that tubing if the fan sitting at the bottom of the tower doing nothing, were hooked up and running…
I believe it is plugged in, sometimes when you use the flash on a camera the shutter speed will be fast enough to make the fan look still.
That’s true. But it looks like the fan is sitting on the bottom of the box, nowhere near a heat sink or even a vent.
Wow… this post is so upsetting to me. Some people are jackasses. Why wouldn’t he just buy a $15 heatsink…. instead of using 50x the energy to cool his system.
You mean, why would you buy a Ferrari when you can drive a Volvo?
Uh….. If that fan is plugged in, all it’s doing is sucking on the bottom of the case. No airflow worth mentioning.
Well… it will probably create lift.. and is it seriously running on lemonade?
Lets make sure we put this cooling system towards the back. We don’t want this thing to look too ghetto.
As long as it has a stable overclock, it’s alright
I don’t see a pump for that liquid.
Which begs the question: is this even fixed?
There is a pump in the bottom right corner, or am I mistaken? Clearly they can’t use the fan, because air flow is all messed up when the sides are open. Why are they open, you ask? This way the builder got his 5 secs in fame, nobody would post an ordinary tower.
Really? No pump?
What is that blocky device in the bottom-right of the image then?
It has 2 fluid pipe connections, one electrical connect, and really does not belong in a normal computer case.
Sure looks like a pump to me
This kludge might work even without the pump if the computer really sucks.
Or if it was kept in a fridge.
bottom right corner.
Results from our robotic kidney prototype are not promising – it has only been in use for a few weeks and our patient is already back on dialysis.
This is the kind of stuff we’d see if House got his A+ Cert.
I can’t seem to find this product on Newegg. Can anyone help me?
Zombie Drama, day 1:
I managed to repare the computer. Now I can look at photos of zombies. Then again, this won’t help.
OY! what are you trying to do make zombies as wimpy as twilight vampires?
Day 2 : still looking at the zombies. SO Dreamy!
Day 3: Still sparkling.
*squeezes Fluffy across sites*
for information presumably?
Just wondering… Didn’t you just create a zombiePC?
If you really need your computer to run so fast that it needs this much extra cooling, you seriously need to GET A LIFE!
Until it gets to the point where in IV of LN2 is required, I’d say it’s fine.
Perhaps his machine LOX up.
If your computer is getting cooled to a reasonable temp with this set up you aren’t seriously overclocking. You’re compensating for a lack of temperature control in the room.
First off, most forced air pc cooling systems don’t work worth crap with the cover off. Just putting it on might help the problem.
Second: >You’re compensating for a lack of temperature control in the room.
I think this dude is compensating for a lack of length/girth…
Must be an AMD chip. Famous for overheating.
Actually its Intel that are famous for overheating. The P4s even melted at times.
There is a pump, it looks to be a Eheim 1250- Used on myself. However, its epic old- hasn’t been used in water cooling for 4+ years. Not to mention, the tubing is smaller than normal.
Reusable ice packs? Pah!! Where’s the creativity in that. Bring on the dry ice I say!
I want to see someone make a kludge for this with a cube fridge. run the hose into the freezer tray and back out. much better than a microwave.
ur wish is my command http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTQ9r_rGNkg
Plasma screen- you’re doin’ it wrong.
one helluvan ice cream maker.
Tired of being overclocked, under appreciated, and all of the empty promises of upgrades, the computer unfortunately felt the only way out was suicide…Jim Jones style.
It was the only way to drink the Kool-aid
I think you mean Death of Marat style.
This is the origin of that urban legend where the computer wakes up in an ice bath with it’s reservoir removed and a note on the mirror in lipstick to call 911.
I would say instead: a note on the mirror in lipstick to call helpdesk.
Another unit of packed cells on the rapid infuser! STAT!! And book an O.R., NOW!
This was the world’s first apheresis machine.
Waste not Want not — everything is recyclable. Even kool-aid
oh, WTH happened to this computer.
Well, this is a pretty effective cooling system, but why is the fan at the bottom unplugged?
Infinite Improbability Drive–you’re doing it wrong.
Quite possibly the dumbest idea ever. I mean, it was well intended, water cooling + cold water = cooler CPU. But there is one big problem cold water in the tubes will cause condensation. water and electronics do not mix well and the result is usually lots of smoke.
WHEN THIS COMPUTER CRASHES, WE WILL SEE SOMETHING SIMILAR TO THE Y2K!
