Re: water pump kicked the bucket
ah, that never occurred to me, I thought part of your post was lost, and the water pump was for your van.

Re: water pump kicked the bucket
lol i don't mind the sound since i'm used to my old one (sounded like a small jet) i just wanted to see if the water cooling would hold up better. it's just like our full pumps apparently low liquid levels equal burnt out pump....

Re: water pump kicked the bucket
My friend at work is overclocking his rig and uses like 9 or 10 fans. LOL I bet if I set it on its side it would float on the floor like a hovercraft.

Re: water pump kicked the bucket
Sure you can use a Chevy waterpump on your `puter, it will flow much better. You may wanna upgrade to a V8 cooling radiator for those extreme gaming evenings.... Haha!Cobra wrote:yeah i have liquid cooling (well had....) waiting for the parts to come in but i miss my computer (sad i know)
