WOW! Nice station!

A thermostat would be AWESOME to drop into the loop, especially if I could get a few spaced out.

I'll have to look into that a bit more as well I mean why not we look at everything temp wise and we can tell the water system work but the temps of the coolant should be very important as well.

And I guess there are some Freon cooling going on not a lot but I did read up some on it still need more info about it.

I've seen some people running their hosing into a mini fridge next to the system or a stand up drinking fountain. Cold beverages and system....nice!. Likely way too much energy and effort but it's funny stuff anyway.

I wouldn't recommend using a fridge for various different reasons... Lol. But I'm still amazed by the concept of a submerged PC. I found an article the other day where some guys made an "aquarium PC". Oh, and it has bubbles too....

Mineral Oil Submerged Computer; Our Most Popular Custom PC

Playtech in Albany (Auckland) that I went to to get my H50, had a fully submerged working PC. It was actually quite impressive to see one live. Would be even more impressive if there were a goldfish or two...

And one of my friends associates had a fullsized deepfreezer in his garage, piped to his PC in the lounge.
That was very cool. However, he too wouldnt recommend it. Mostly because of the power consumption (and the two holes in the wall) outwieghed the actual performance increase. I understand he got it overclocked to 3.2ghz and cooled to 26~C
But still... 10/10 on the cool-mod-o-meter

One of the PC stores in caboolture, have a submerged PC

Nice rig really nice. That mineral oil deal is way out there.

wow thats quite crazy

That is rediculas like WTF LMAO

Mention that on a big modding site and I'm sure someone would try it.....

Lol.

I was thinking more along the lines of having air sucked in from outside, then cooled, then pushed through a PC case... Honestly though, I'd be more concerned about moisture coming through into the case... Especially after seeing what the inside of my fridge looks like.

Just replaced an Antec Big Boy 200mm with 2 Silverstone 120mm Air Penetrator Fan AP121 as side intake and I'm glad I did. Might replace all my 120mm with these. Also re-wired all my fans to the controller and added some temp sensors.

now that is very nice

 

[tw33k]

Thanks man. I'm so stoked

My roommate had a good suggestion earlier today, and I am currently looking into this:

We thought it would be really cool to have temperature sensors for all over the case and components.
So I thought about it, and decided if I could get 20 temperature probes and wire them up through an arduino, I could have some legit temperature sensing. I am a bit tired of the inaccurate temperatures reported in Windows, and I obviously cannot monitor from BIOS.
Also, this would allow me to monitor:
CPU
GPU
RAM (x2)
Harddrives (x4)
Motherboard (north bridge, south bridge, back of CPU) (x3)
Pump
Reservoir
Radiator
PSU
A few other random locations

While this may be totally unnecessary, it would be freaking awesome. I could monitor every (important and /or interesting) temperature in my case, all through one chip I could stick inside the case.
Only question is whether I would have to write an app to read this in Windows (would like to do), or program it to output to a small LCD screen on the front of the case. I suppose I could also just wire another arduino up to make my fan and light controller even more epic.

Going to need more power from the PSU though :shock:

WOW! Nice station!

That's my "old rig" now. New system is this

 

[ZaLiTH]

New system is this

Hmmm... That would make it a real mission taking your PC to a weekend LAN session. Lol. Or an excuse to make everyone else come to you. Hehe...

I don't really like massive cases like that, but still... That setup looks really sweet. Can you only switch between two colours or is it any colour you want?

 

[derekimo]

Those are amazing systems thobel, are you independently wealthy?

Not rich but doing well. My partners get me the systems as presents
