Achtung, Besserwisser!

Ob Rot und Braun oder Braun und Rot macht kein Unterschied

Aber, ich wusste was sie bedeute. So you souldn't have corrected him.

I'm back again guys

tomorrow is my last day to change things in my order so I have some quick questions :.

A small list of things my order looks like:


cuplex evo Plexiglas Revision 1.1 (Vierloch Halterung, Plug & Cool) € 64,35
twinplex™ Rev. 1.2 (Graffikkarte GeForce4, Chipsatz, gewinkelte) € 38,39
twinplex™ Rev. 1.2 (Chipsatz, Chipsatz, Plug & Cool) € 36,89
airplex evo 240 (Plug & Cool) € 48,60
Eheim 1046 € 34,20
plug&cool Anschluss-Satz Eheim 1046 € 5,84
Schlauch PUR, glasklar € 9,00
acfluid - farbloser Korrosionsschutz € 4,00
airplex evo Einbaublende 240 € 17,90
T-Verbinder plug&cool Metall € 4,59
Kugelhahn plug&cool Metall € 8,99

Totaal € 272,75

The T-verbinder is to let the water out the system for some reason. After the T-verbinder there comes a little crane to stop and unstop the water.

My radiator Does NOT fit in the upper level of the system. That is not a good thing I thought and I was not happy with that. There is a piece of plank in the middle of where I want to put it and believe me, there is no space to mod something.


But I found an solution. I Figured it out to fit the radiator UNDER that upper level. You can just see a small piece on the picture. I will remove the hard drive rack and won't use the upper 2 5,25" racks. That is my solution and for some time it's the best. Because I want to fit the Radiator into the upper level in the future with an other housing, I ordered einbaublende. That is a good opportunity to make it into my system now too.

What I'm about to do is the following:
- Make the einbaublende at the top, with 2x 12cm fans under it. Outtake
- Make at the therefor open places at the back of my housing 2x 8cm fans. You can see those at the picture, behind the hard drive rack. Intake
- Place the radiator without fans under de floppy drive, at the first 2 5,25" racks.

Is this a good solution?

Thanks for those good reactoins, but I figured out those kind of solutions likely. I knew about the external mounting for a long time but I think it's not good looking with my mod. Besides it's expensive and that's just not what I want.

About that airduct idea, yeah, that's pretty well figured out and probably the best way to do it for now. But do not underestimate my mod skills : An air duct is allready part of my system . Maybe you think my housing looks like the picture but that was just the best picture to show how to place my radiator. That was about an half a year ago. Let's see how it's looking now:





About that solution with taking the radiator on the side, I think that's ugly and makes the computer take away a lot of space.

So please comment me:
- 2x80mm fans in the back of the housing
- 2x120mm fans at the top of the housing
- Radiator under the upper level, in the first 2 5,25" bays
- An airduct to it.

For NOW I think that's the best solution, what do you think?

In the future I want to make my own radiator, under my desk. So that my legs are warmed up while I'm computing . Is my pump strong enough for that?

I made a choise to go for the Hydor L 20 and not for the eheim. I won't discuss it, maybe if you have a good reason, but how do I assemble this pump?

What kind of set do I need to fit it into my plug & cool system? I see:

- Entkopplungsset für Eheim und Hydor-Pumpen
- plug&cool Anschlussatz für Hydor L20

Wich one do I need or do I need both?
