Looking for pics of an Aqua Computer AQUABOX

Page 2 - Seeking answers? Join the AnandTech community: where nearly half-a-million members share solutions and discuss the latest tech.
your link was a order link.

The op gave one of those. Yes but true it was a link.

Now had th OP gone to Hard Forum, and got in contact with a member called TOP NURSE, im sure she would of sent him pictures of the thing inside out and taken apart.

I respect TOP NURSE in her documentation. She gives great pics and shows things in great detail. I am however in conflict with her choices of parts, and recomendations. But i clearly told the OP, all that b4 recomending her.

My recomendation still stands, TOP NURSE is the one you would want to talk to about AC products. She's taken apart even the expensive aquero tower which retails near 600 dollars, and documented each pic of it in detail. [Only to find out the entire radiator section used alu].

But as i said i respect her in her discriptions and explainations. She wont lie to you on what something is made out of.



Now post count and sticky... if you only knew how much email's / pm's i ran into because of that sticky, you'd have more respect for people who do put up stickys. Your automatically the PM or EMAIL person when something goes wrong. I put a lot of time and effort in PM's and Emails to help out people because of that sticky.

So yes, its a curse as well as a blessing... But its still 1 more sticky then what you have on a reputable forum... or would you like to share? If your an experienced h2o builder, then im all in. If you give good advice and recomendations, then thats even more power to this forum.

If your just trolling, then please go away.... we have much better things to do with our time other then wasting them on you.

G1/8 is native 1/4ID tubing. Use cathars flow chart in respect to 1/4ID tubing

Right, with his setup it was almost a degree difference between 6mm and 3/8 barbed fitted. That is less than I expected.

6.35mm quick fit = 4.45LPM flow, 0.0795 block c/w, 0.0374 rad c/w


Its actually a little different then a standard 1/4th barb. Its a quick fit which is shown to have less restriction then a 1/4ID barb.
 
Right I was aware that it was quick fit, I'm just not that interested in the small details. I'm not an overclocking and water cooling tweaker who is looking to squeeze every bit of efficiency out of my system. It's like I've been saying all along, I'm a moderate overclocker with moderate needs. I'm completely unconcerned about a percentile of a degree difference in cooling. I'm very content with my current systems flow rate and cooling. You may have some experience building systems, your information correct, and your intentions good...but it just doesn't apply to me. It is less than 1 degree.
 
well, as i said, im not forcing you to get anything.

Just informing you of what this and that is. Also letting you know that you have options incase you ever want to scale your h2o system.

If your happy with what you have, no one can tell you to change it. :T

hey justjeff! Happy holidays to you too. I'm just now reading this whole thread and LMAO and reply to your holiday salutation.
I like that style of resevoir because you can see the level and flow and adds a little bling to the case.
I prefer the appearance of the smaller tubing in a case and have found you can use the 3/8" ID, 1/2" OD Primochill tubing and stretch over the 1/2" barbs. This will get the flowrates up above what cathars chart shows the 3/8" will do, It eliminates the turbulence at the barbs, 1/2" barbs have a 3/8' ID. I mention this as you speak of future upgrades and a good loop , to me anyway, is one I can use w/ my next system. I have a loop w/ the 1/4" tubing running a P4 prescott, hot like that 805 of yours but no where near as hot as my quad. Upgrading and adding other blocks I think a 1/4" loop will soon be overwhelmed.

I can't stop grinning Aigomorla, I'm sorry. A few years ago I had my ID stolen and it was frustrating as hell. It was being used by someone in Miami for housing and utilities, when they didn't pay was when I found out. I can only imagine this is some one you pissed off and will eventually dribble off like the last few drops always do. Just another stain with the skidmarks. 😉

Thank you for the kind words and heads up on stretching tubing. I had the same setup on an Asus P5WD2-E Premium. Had the 805 @ 3.8 with a Northbridge block in the loop also. Right now I have excessive amounts of tubing running externally. I want to clean up the whole appearance, mount as much internally as is possible. The first step for me is getting rid of the Reserator as a reservoir. It's HUGE for crying out load. Next will be deciding whether to keep my PC-60 or upgrading to a PC-70 or 71. The bay reservoir won't be till I decide on the case.

I did like the XSPC reservoir Aigmorala (or however it's spelled) sent me a heads up on. I'm glad I joined the forums regardless of the "I'd never permit this crap gear on my website" bravado. It's always nice to know extra options for down the road upgrades.
 
Aigomorla comes across petty cocky sometimes but I must say he is an enthusiasts' enthusiast. His knowledge in regard to PC cooling is fantastic. He keeps current and will answer the call to help, PMs', email and had guided many into a top notch cooling system.
There are many on this forum that are knowledgeble in WC here but few, including myself willing to devote so much time in helping others.
Well, glad to have you on the site too, welcome to anan, your opinions and ideas are as valuable as anyone elses.
Oh, btw, that guy w/ the name no-one can seem to spell,,,, he's not the only showoff!

Im telling you.. that XSPC, besides the price, i give it two thumbs up. But its in the same league as the AquaComputers price, so i recomended that instead.

Also the bubble trap on the XSPC really works. A member over at XS[no relationship to XSPC] as well as a few reviews confirm it actually bleeds your system efficiently. Also comes with a UV LED!

incase your looking at the older versions without the new bubble trap. theres a black one also in there, and a dual bay.
