Should I bother to water cool my HD's

Dienstag, 31. Oktober 2006, 22:38

Howdy chaps just some advice. I have one PC that has been running for a while and I need to rebuild it so I can investigate some issues and attach the temp sensors near the intended measured components.

I have pretty minimal airflow in the case in an attempt to make things quite and as far as I can tell my temps all look ok. However my sensors are not really placed to give accurate measurements hence the rebuild.

As a guide the water seems to be cooled by 1-2 deg passively and I get a max flowrate of 38.61 l/h at the higher pump setting and 27.43 l/h at the default pump setting. I don't get much temp difference between the two settings.

I have many components in the case that are watercooled, 3 HD are included in that. Do you think the flowrates and cooling will be improved if I take 2 of the HD's out of the loop.

What flowrates are you guys getting with your setups.

Hi!

In my current setting I can't measure the flowrates, but the ADs are just a sort of pipe, atached to the hardrives.
So infact they don't influence the flowrate at all. Or atleast not measurable.
