I've had the same thing happen with an ATX connector, it's caused by improper contact between the socket and the plug, it causes high resistance and arcing which then causes the socket and plug to heat up and melt

Do you mean something like this, my photo/video editing rig it's a dual loop and pump with the returns from each radiator going into a single reservoir

A multi option res is what you need, google phobya balancer. I'm now using one on my loops Graphics and CPU, it works well I'll post some piccies up of it soon :)

i see what you're saying but i'll have to disagree about needing to top up the water, i've been running a closed loop for over a month now and i found that if you get the air bubbles out, once it's filled it's filled. I had no cooling issues with it at all

each to their own i suppose, I have no res or t-line just a closed loop :)

My lastest build Julie, fully closed waterloop (no res), in a cosmos - s case, based on the Asus Rampage Extreme Pics of my old Thermaltake build also called Julie, based on the Asus Striker 2 Formula with Geil Black Dragon 1066 DDR2 memory, not a closed loop has pump/res in...

Are you sure you have the speaker connected to the correct pins on the motherboard and the right way round The speaker is normally one of the first things checked during the POST process of the BIOS :)

The COSMOS -S is a very good case, its what Julie is built in :) Lots of room, could fit another loop in for the chipset if needed :D

Personally I take the blocks apart and clean them, if you can't take them apart then flushing them through with isopropyl alcohol works well :)

personally I would go custom built, as in build it myself. :) Main reason for custom build is that you can specify your own components and build the PC exactly how you want and to your budget I wouldn't go SSD yet because if you're playing games you will need storage (some games can be pretty...

Have you ever drained and replaced the liquid in the last 4 years, if you haven't then I recommend a scratch build, replace the tubes and clean out the blocks, radiator and reservoir if used. Then refill it with distilled water mixed with biocide (to prevent algae growth) and anti-corrosion...

I've taken some fresh pics of the loop :)

Haha cool, between them they may have baby AT's or mATX's :D Is your pc also liquid cooled?

Indeed you are right, I have 2x swiftech MCP355 with XSPC Acetal tops 2x EK universal VGA waterblocks (full cover blocks for the powercolour series 4890 cards are not yet available) 1x EK Supreme LT CPU block G1/4 thread barbs for 3/8 ID tubing 3/8 ID - 1/2 OD Clearflex tube 1x XSPC 120 triple...

The only shop bought pc I've had would be a "Celery" (refers to Celeron) based Laptop, sold it now though and bought a Macbook ;) :)

well to cut a long story short :) all the tower systems I've built have all been called Julie, even my 486 was called Julie :D It also helps on the network as their is 4 computers here

hiya, sorry for the confusion I got the image tags wrong, have fixed it now Julie is the name of the system in the picture, it's a fully closed watercooled pc

Hiya I'm new to the forums :) I've finished building my new rig, Julie, the fully closed loop watercooled computer Regards Rob 80386
