9 Radiators and 6 pumps TEMPS!!?? or 0 degrees celcius?

Bodar

Hey, So I'm looking for an extreme cooling solution 24/7

What would the temps be like using 9 radiators, 6 pumps on the gpu's only...

Was looking at this to combine with 3 more radiators and another pump

http://www.koolance.com/water-coolin...product_id=372

Or would this be good instead? http://www.aquastealth.com/modified15hpchiller.aspx

The main question is will todays high performance pc coolant be ok at 0 degrees celcius? Thanks!!!

Unless you use something to chill the coolant, there is no possible way to get the temps below ambient temperature.

Thanks a bunch!! So will the coolant freeze at 0?

also you'll need to worry about condensation..

if u want cooling of 0C(impossible like said on just water)..ur better off going phase change or chilled water..

Depends, I guess you could put anti freeze in it, but its still a bit risky. You would still need like... a refrigerator or something to get it that cold. And, HOLY CRAP! 1,339.95! RICH much!?

So If I had this thing coupled with the radiator/pump system it's possible with the coolant by koolance? http://www.aquastealth.com/modified15hpchiller.aspx

jesus christ bodar, are you TRYING to attempt to put two 1500 watt power supplies?

Just put the coolant in the freezer.. It's at 5 celcius right now.. All good

Really just want to see what kind of performance it has.. 0 degrees celcius is the freezing point of water so I'm kinda worried about using that external water chiller because it's rated to go as low as 0.. I know just skipping all the bs and going for the LN2 or dice would be easier but I'm trying to find a 24/7 solution that may work for daily use..

bodar, you should take a look at this ,

You are spending way too much to watercooling. I would go with Asetek VapoChill if you have that much cash.

Vapor Phase Change Cooling

Bodar · 09-02-2009, 04:13 | posts: 1,739 | Location: Austin | User is Offline

I was looking into the new phase change units for the cpu.. I think that could be great!! Thanks and appreciate.. What I was tryin to figure out with the water setup was for the 5 285's I'm gonna run for benches and folding.. At extra high clock speeds.. I want the cards to basically never reach 25c at clock speeds in the 900 range

Yes Vapochill!!!!!!

Vapochill here I come..For the cpu. I just did an experiment with my coolant.. 0 degrees celcius is a no go for the gfx cards.. hmmmm.. What to do.. Maybe I can keep a constant 25/30 celcius If I just add a **** load of radiators.. Maybe 10 or so with 6 pumps??

I've done alright but not super duper rich.. You know what... I think I'm looney for hardware.. I think someone needs to take me away in a strait Jacket...
like now!!

To the op, howmuchever you try to cool any component, you have to understand that it requires a certain temperature level to operate, if the temp level falls below the required level the component may not operate.

Bodar · 09-02-2009, 04:56 | posts: 1,739 | Location: Austin | User is Offline

So if you keep the temperature constant, then hopefully it will operate right?

masterchiefx2 · 09-02-2009, 06:32 | posts: 6,333 | Location: Lincolnshire | User is Offline

why not try some passive rads

http://www.tekheads.co.uk/s/product?product=604212

and have like 50 of them mouted under a desk by the time they have reached circled though the loop they be cold and use quick release so you can move pc when you want to.

Lutfi

how about coupling the thermaltake symphony..

but, you'll be needing some modification on that thing.. because, it comes with stock piping.. hehehe..

masterchiefx2 · 09-02-2009, 07:04 | posts: 6,333 | Location: Lincolnshire | User is Offline

actually why dont you get a super powerful pump install a ton of copper tubing around the house like central heating and use this to cool ur compnents.

So who are you folding for?
your not in guru team not with the name Bodar at least.

Bodar, couple of links that might help

The chiller might not big enough for waht you want

a little more insight on ur radiator pump setup..
10 rads will more n likely be overkill and wont help past 2 or 3?..and u wont need 6 pumps thats also overkill

u can only dissipate so much heat..a 120x3 can do bout 300watts of heat and keep whatever ur cooling about 5C above ambient..and bout 500watts heat at 10c above ambient

so if u want extremely low temps id say if you bought probably 3 120.3's or 2 x 120.4's

but what id suggest starting with..is a single 120.4 radiator with one pump...something like a mcp355 with a top or a mcp655 vario using 1/2" fittings all around..
see what ur temps are like..if you are unhappy purchase another 120.4 to throw in the loop..still one pump should be enough for this..see if the temps are more in ur ballpark range..if they are then ur good to go..if not maybe another one..but ull get to a point where adding more rads wont give anymore performance..
i doubt ull need more then 2 120.4 rads if you choose a good brand like thermochill and use a push/pull fan configuration on it..also use good fans..idk how u are about noise so maybe saying if u want it silent or quiet or doesnt matter may help in a suggestion on which fans to use..
