Looking for pics-Aqua Computer Aquabay

[justjeffthreadmonkey]

Just like the title says, I'm looking for pics of an Aquabay working. I'm thinking of getting one, uv lighting it and using FluidXP's Blood Red. I'm just trying to get an idea of whether I want a dual 3.5 bay or single 5.25 bay....then whether to get an aluminum or all plexiglass. Pics as a reference would be fantabulous

Aqua computer?

Fluid XP?

A noob, eh?

Try Googling and see what pops up....more likely some of the worst watercooling products on the market, as long as you discount Thermaltake and Koolance, amongst other horribly form over function producers.

Cruise XtremeSystems.org and find out about REAL watercooling and do yourself a favor.

On the other hand, load your system up with FluidXP if you really hate your components and your cooling results......

Welcome To AT.

I agree with ginger. Stick with air until you want to build yourself a custom setup. Zalman, Koolance, Thermaltake, and your pick all are crap. The best air coolers will beat them for a lot less money and hassle. Then, when you have the money and are ready, get and build a custom setup like this:
Aigo's CM690 Build
And if you want to learn about watercooling, read Aigo's sticky thread, and then if you want help, ask Aigomorla. or head over to XtremeSystems

I'm currently using an 805 at 3.2ghz on an Intel D975XBX2 with an Aqua Computer Cuplex block a HWlabs/Black Ice 360somethingoranother radiator, a Zalman Reserator with the pump removed and an Eheim 1048. Oh, 2gb Buffalo Firestix and a 2900xt

I came in contact with XtremeSystems yesterday when I started checking out these forums. I will check them out when I have more time.

This is the only image I could find of one installed and, allegedly, functioning:

I apreciate the effort and the link, however that is an Aquabay, I'm looking for pics of an Aquabox

Here's a pic from Sharka Computers of the 3.5 dual bay one, it's the one I'm leaning more towards simply because I have unused 3.5 bays and a Lian Li case...so the aluminum I think would be more pleasant to the eye. Before I drop $50 on a reservoir made for show I'd like to see what it does. Or as they market it, " the Aquabox channels the water to the front and creates a dramatic flow effect against the glass."

Though as I'm typing this, I'm remembering that it's aluminum and copper that you don't want to mix for corrosive reasons....correct? Maybe the plexiglass one would be best.

Hmm, your original post mentioned the Aquabay:

But no matter.

And yes, you do not want to mix aluminum and copper lest ye face the wrath of galvanic corrosion.
